Core webinar: On Your MARC, Get Set, Code!

Date: Wednesday, March 23, 2022

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1 pm Central, and 2 pm Eastern time.



This is the fourth session in a four-part series regarding Metadata &
Collections.

Description: How are MARC records performing in our search environment?
This presentation will look at the process and results of a research
project that analyzed how users’ search terms matched up with MARC fields,
as well as how and where MARC records were displayed in search results
lists. Presenters will discuss the process, the results of the project, and
outline how attendees can implement similar research projects at their
institutions, including tools and techniques they can use to analyze how
their own records are surfacing in a search environment.

Learning outcomes:

By the end of this webinar, attendees will learn about:

1. Tools and techniques for research that analyzes web logs and search
terms;

2. How MARC fields interacted with user search terms in this research
project; and

3. How the results of this research project were implemented in a
cataloging workflow.

Who should attend?

Anyone with an interest in the topic can benefit from this session and is
welcome to participate.
