Guides for building a local music collection using the open-source MUSICat platform.

Utilities

Most of the tools in utilities are intended for Rabble developers rather than libraries. A couple may be useful to you.

Linked to from the main Admin page.

Trash

Find the trash cans for Jury/Invite, Complete Submission, and Review and Publish. You can view and restore trashed items from the trash cans.

Album MARC Testing

This tool conducts a sequence of tests on all albums to confirm valid MARC output with current template settings and to help locate albums that are generating errors. Albums with valid MARC outputs will display green “Yes’s”; albums with invalid outputs will display red “No’s”. Invalid records are almost always due to missing track numbers, which can be corrected at individual album Review and Publish pages. Note that a check for valid MARC outputs also appears on individual album Review and Publish pages, under track lists.
