Metadata Management (Cataloging)

In FOLIO, metadata management includes essential cataloging functions. These functions include:

• Creating Instance, Holdings, and Item records
• Managing your collections (physical and/or virtual)
• Importing and exporting bibliographic data
• Editing MARC records

Cataloging Settings

Metadata management is governed by a set of rules and policies. These rules and policies are defined by the library and implemented in the Data export, Data import, and Inventory areas of the FOLIO Settings app.
