Warnings
| Note |

This process means that Marcive will store a copy of your records. Periodically they will send copies of these records back and overlay the records in our databases with updates. If you have locally changed a record in the mean time, that information may be lost when the Marcive version of the record overlays the record in our database. The way to avoid this is to send Marcive a new copy of a record if you update it locally. You can do this by updating the CAT DATE. Records with a new CAT DATE will be sent to Marcive again in the next monthly update. Then the new record will be what comes back with updates. |

Using “No A.C.” in a 958 will prevent a record from going to Marcive. However, that will have no effect if the record is already in the Marcive database. That record will continue to be overlaid with updates from Marcive. If something is already at Marcive, to remove it you would have to make a copy of the record, move the attached records to the copy and delete the original. Then if the copy has “No A.C.” in a 958 that version will not go to Marcive, and the original will be deleted from Marcive as well. However, if it is in the Marcive database, we have already paid the $0.06 for that record. We won’t save any money by removing it. You can still remove it, if you are concerned about Marcive’s changes disrupting your local record. |
