So many records. So little time.
Take thousands, perhaps a couple million catalog records. Let a few generations of your staff edit them. Pull your copy cataloging from someone else's database for a few years. Watch as cataloging practices change.
Now acquire somebody else's collection. Create a consortium with a shared catalog. Implement a federated search system. Or maybe switch ILS providers.
Is your database getting a little unruly? Wouldn't it be nice if somebody could clean it up a bit?
At Backstage we've developed flexible systems to validate, deduplicate, consolidate, and update your data. Our database services include:
- Deduplication & Consolidation
- Union Database Creation
- ILS Data Migration
- Unicode Translation
- Customized Processing
So tell us what you'd like to achieve.
