9.11. Appendix K: Record Match Sets

Last Updated 04/03/2025


What is a Record Match Set?

Match Sets determine the MARC record criteria used to identify "good" matches between any existing records and the MARC records imported using the MARC Batch Import/Export interface.

Record Match Sets within NC Cardinal

We now only use two match sets in NC Cardinal — Cardinal match is the default for bibliographic record imports and Authority Match is used for authority records. All batch bibliographic record uploads must utilize Cardinal match to ensure that duplicate bibliographic records are not imported.
