Hi all, I’m wondering about this setting for import profiles: Perform Authority Control. Specifically, I wondered about turning this on for incoming Overdrive records. Am I in for a world of hurt? Will this do anything useful at all? I’m just tired of authorities not matching from OD and our catalog, and stumbled across this option today.
I was not the one who set up our OD import profile and so I don’t know if there are some settings - like this one - that you just don’t use for eResources/OD in particular.
If it does work, then I suppose we’d like to add this option for our Hoopla records too.
I saw an older answer that used an outside vendor to clean up eResource authorities, but that’s not a solution for us at this time. And forgive me if the answer is somewhere in Polaris help, my eyes are getting a bit blurry today after doing a deep dive into our PAC and import profile settings.
Thanks for your insight!
FYI: we’re a stand-alone library with roughly 80K OD records right now in our PAC (I think?).
