Millennium Serials also offers the ability to create and edit the MARC holdings fields directly. You can create and edit caption and pattern fields - MARC 853-855 fields - and holdings range fields - MARC 863-865 fields. You will need to know MARC format to use advanced mode.
In the advanced Holdings editor, the upper area of the dialog displays each caption and pattern field with a folder icon and each holdings range field with a paper icon.
The magnifying glass icon lets you collapse and expand the fields.
The Selected Range area (lower section) of the dialog displays the MARC data for whichever field is selected in the upper area.
To create a caption and pattern field in advanced mode, you simply choose Add Pattern, then enter the MARC data in the Selected Range area, and choose Apply Changes. Note that a Checkin record can have multiple caption and pattern fields.
To create a pattern with 2 levels of chronology (year and month) follow the steps below:
