Last Updated 09/25/2023
There are three scenarios that could require merging:
If the existing record needs to be improved or multiple records already exist in the catalog for the exact same materials or materials with the same content, but with a different publisher or distributor, a bibliographic cataloger should carefully evaluate the record before making changes or merging the duplicate records.
NOTE: Make sure you clean up the resulting merged record to comply with current NC Cardinal Best Practices.
