Bulk add titles to an existing selection list

To add multiple titles at once to an existing selection list:

Note:
Provisional records cannot be bulk added to purchase orders or selection lists. If you import bibliographic records to use in Acquisitions, select Save as final. See Importing Records.

Tip:
Select Type in the Limit by box and Bibliographic in the Value box to search for bibliographic record sets.

  1. Select Cataloging > Record Sets from the Polaris shortcut bar, and use the Find Tool to search for and select the bibliographic record set.
  2. The Bibliographic Record set workform opens.

  3. Select Tools > Add all records to Existing Selection List, or select specific records in the list, and select Tools > Add selected records to Existing Selection List.
  4. Tip:
    You can also search for the record set, select it in the Find Tool results, right-click and select Add to Selection List > Existing from the context menu.
  5. Use the Find Tool to search for and select the existing selection list.
  6. The Add to Existing Selection List dialog box appears.

  7. Important:
    If the Polaris Administration Acquisitions profile Filter branches in line item segments profile is set to Yes, and the 970 has a subfield $l (branch abbreviation) with the same parent library as the Library on the selection list, the 970 tag is used to create a segment on the selection list line item. If the profile is set to Yes and the branch abbreviation in a 970 tag does not have the same parent library as the Library on the selection list, it will not be used to create a segment on the selection list.
  8. If the Line Default Data fields are not complete, enter the information. See Create a selection list by bulk adding titles.
