If you will be repeating a particular search frequently, or need to print a large list to use for data cleanup, physical inventory, etc., or if you need to search MARC SRS, using LDLite to run a report will be the most efficient way to get at the data you need. Check with Aaron Neslin about requesting a specific report (or even getting one scheduled).
ITEMS
QUERY | WHAT IS FOUND | HOW IT WORKS |
|---|---|---|
items.id="" NOT items.barcode="" | items without barcodes | the first part finds items where items.id (=UUID) exists, but not items that have barcode defined as any value. Even though the UI shows a dash when there is no barcode, there is no "barcode" field in the JSON until you add a real value. |
cql.allRecords=1 NOT items.barcode="" | all instances or holdings records without items OR with items without barcodes | the first part finds all records where the barcode field is not defined. This includes any instance or holdings without items, but also finds items that have no barcodes. |
cql.allRecords=1 NOT items.barcode="" NOT item.status.name=="On order" | all instances or holdings records without items OR with items lacking barcodes that are not also on order | The query is similar to the one above, but also excludes any items with status of “On order”. This limits the located items to ones that are most likely actual errors. |
HOLDINGS
QUERY STRING | WHAT IS FOUND | HOW IT WORKS |
holdings.electronicAccess.uri = “hampshire” | finds holdings records that have a URL for electronic access that contains the string “hampshire” (change to amherst|mtholyoke|smith|umass as needed) | The uri fieldname corresponds to the URL entered in the Electronic Access section of a holdings record. The query looks for any url containing the provided text. This query is most useful when searching for proxied urls or other institution-specific addresses. |
cql.allRecords=1 NOT (holdings.electronicAccess.uri = ““ NOT holdings.electronicAccess.linkText="") | ||
