sub-pages below the heading, Tracking the Status of Your Extracts.

The following material is available from our SFTP sites in the ‘OCLS > out > Extract for ALMA folder.

  • Your Extracted Data Files in a subfolder called “Extracts”

  • Mapping Form

  • Migration Form

  • Error files

  • Warning files

  • List of Sirsi Delivered Policies

🔆 See the Symphony Data Mapping & Migration Form Instructions for next steps.🔆

Data Types

The information below provides detail on the data extracts. You can also track the status of data extracts by finding the page for your college under Tracking the Status of Your Extracts.


Bibliographic Records

OCLS will provide a full extract of all bibliographic records including eResources unless you indicate another preference. Please note: You will be able to omit eResource records at Cut-over if you include them in the Test Load, however, if you choose to omit eResources from your bib record files in the Test Load phase, you will not be able to include them in the final Cut-over Load.

Learn more about handling the migration of Bibliographic Records on the Ex Libris migration guide here: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/Symphony_to_Alma_Data_Delivery_and_Migration_Guide#Bibliographic_Records

Please indicate your preference in the survey.


MARC Holdings

OCLS will not extract MARC holdings based on the assumption that all your MARC holdings reflect serial holdings and the information needed is included in serial, issue, and control files. Please let OCLS know if you have other MARC holdings besides serials.

Learn more about Holdings records in the Ex Libris migration guide here: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/Symphony_to_Alma_Data_Delivery_and_Migration_Guide#Holding_Records

Please indicate your use of MARC holdings in the survey.


Courses Reserves

OCLS will provide Course data extract files for your reserves unless you indicate another preference.

Learn more about migrating Course data in the Ex Libris migration Guide here: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/Symphony_to_Alma_Data_Delivery_and_Migration_Guide#Course_Reserves

Please indicate your preference in the survey.


Boudwith

OCLS will not extract Boundwith records because it appears they are not used by the colleges.

Learn more about migrating Boudnwith data in the Ex Libris migration Guide here: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/Symphony_to_Alma_Data_Delivery_and_Migration_Guide#Boundwith_Records

Learn more about migrating Block Files in the Ex Libris Migration Guide here: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/Symphony_to_Alma_Data_Delivery_and_Migration_Guide#Block_File

Learn more about migration Patron data in the Ex Libris Migration Guide here: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/Symphony_to_Alma_Data_Delivery_and_Migration_Guide#Patrons

Learn more about migration Requests data in the Ex Libris Migration Guide here: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/Symphony_to_Alma_Data_Delivery_and_Migration_Guide#Active_Requests_on_the_Hold_Shelf

Learn more about migrating Invoices data in the Ex Libris Migration Guide here: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Implementation_and_Migration/Migration_Guides_and_Tutorials/Symphony_to_Alma_Data_Delivery_and_Migration_Guide#Invoices


P2E

OCLS will assist colleges with the creation of Printed to Electronic (P2E) files but OCLS will need input from colleges on which records require P2E. Please see the eResource Migration Backgrounder and P2E Instructions for details.


Data Validation

Mapping and Migration Forms have been created in the validation process based on the data files extracted. See the page on Symphony Data Mapping & Migration Form Instructions for more information.
