360 MARC Updates: Unique Titles in 360 MARC Updates Versus Unique Titles in 360 Core
- Product: 360 MARC Updates
Why does the number of MARC records that I have not match the Client Center unique title count?
The MARC record count reflects the number of unique authority titles. The Total Unique Title count on the Data Summary page (accessed from the Client Center's Data Summary link) is a literal "unique title" count. This count does not recognize two authority alternate titles as one title; every variation of a title's text is counted as a separate title.
For example:
Accountant (London) ssj0011612, 1 record, 2 unique titles
