Utilizing RSA’s Seed Library Broad Category Enhanced Brief Records Guide

“The Utilizing RSA’s Seed Library Broad Category Enhanced Brief Records Guide is a document which provides guidance and further information to libraries interested in cataloging their seed library items in WorkFlows using RSA created enhanced brief records.  Cataloging seed library items is completely optional, but a library might decide to do so for two reasons: 

  1. To increase a library’s seed library visibility to their patrons in the RSAcat. 
  2. To more easily track seed library usage and compile more detailed statistics.  This information can be used to justify a seed library to a library board, be used to determine which seed varieties are most popular among patrons for restocking purposes, etc. 

This guide offers suggestions and steps for how to utilize RSA created broad category enhanced brief records in WorkFlows, details for how to track usage through use of the Ephemeral wizard, ideas for tracking implementation, information regarding how to suggest new broad category enhanced brief records, and more. “
