Creating INSECT Records

  • INSECT records provide a means of linking a collection of titles about a particular topic or event so that they can be displayed on a single title entry page. INSECT records cannot be created during title registration. They must first be added through Register INSECT.
  1. Search to make sure there is no existing INSECT record.
  2. If no record is found, select Register. The INSECT - Register screen will be displayed.
  3. Insect Title - enter the collection title that will be displayed at the top of the title entry page.
  4. Subjects - select the appropriate subject heading(s) from the drop down lists.
  5. TEP Description - enter a brief description of the contents of the collection. This will be displayed on the title entry page.
  6. If titles within the INSECT collection will be displayed under headings on the title entry page, click on the Subgroups tab.
  7. Enter the first heading in the Subgroup Name field and click the Add button. The heading will be inserted into the Current Subgroups box.
  8. Repeat the procedure to add further headings.
  9. If any additional information needs to be recorded about the INSECT, click on the Notes tab and enter details in the text box.
  10. Click Finish to complete the record and then click Finish again to return to the INSECT search screen.

Editing INSECT Records

  1. Search for the INSECT record.
  2. Click on the INSECT Name link and the INSECT - Management view screen will be displayed.
  3. Click on the Edit link at the top of the page and the INSECT - Edit screen will be displayed.
  4. Change the information as required.
  5. To add a new heading to the Current Subgroups list, enter the heading in the Subgroup Name box and click Add. The new heading will then be inserted into the Current Subgroups list.
  6. To remove a heading from the Current Subgroups list, click on the heading to highlight it, then press the Remove button.
  7. Click Finish and then Finish twice more to return to the INSECT search screen.
