Summary: This procedure provides guidance on the proper formatting of 949 workstat codes, an essential part of Technical Services statistics gathering.
Work statistics, referred to as "workstats" are a formulaic code of 14 characters that allows for the parsing of types of cataloging and processing statistics. In Connexion, before exporting a record, workstats are placed in MARC field 949 $f for most Folio job profiles. This loads them into the Workstats item note in the Folio item record.
Construct workstats using the formula and codes below:
[unit] + [work type] + [initials]
[cop] + [copymono] + [xxx] = copcopymonoxxx
[acq] + [skymatch] + [xxx] = acqskymatchxxx
For microforms, physical computer files, physical audio materials and physical video materials, include a piece count. Using no spaces, insert a comma after the workstat string and the number of pieces (fiche, discs, etc.).
[unit] + [work type] + [initials] + [comma] + [#]
Examples:
- Original cataloger copy catalogs a 2-CD musical recording:
- Processor in CatMan adds another copy of a video game to an existing record:
- Copy cataloger copy catalogs an item consisting of 36 microfiche sheets:
