How to build a controlled heading in the Control Headings window

The following procedure is based on entering a heading that the system does not control.

 Note:

• To simply see what the Control Headings window looks like, you can try the example procedure below. 
  Or
• Uncontrol a controlled heading, introduce a typographical error, and then click Edit > Control Headings > Single. The Control Headings window opens. Click Cancel to close the Control Headings window, and then re-control the heading.

1. Open a bibliographic record.
2. (Optional) Click Action > Lock WorldCat Record or press <Alt><F8> to lock the WorldCat record if you are in WorldCat.
3. Locate the cursor in an uncontrolled subject heading field, and click Edit > Control Headings > Single or press <F11>.

    Note: If you are not logged on, the Logon windows opens. You must be logged on. 

   Example of a heading that the system does not control: 650 _0 Teacher educators ‡v Congresses ‡z Texas
   
   In this heading, because the geographic subdivision (‡z) is incorrectly positioned, the Control Headings window opens.
   
   A fully controlled appropriate heading is included as a candidate in the list of possible headings: Teacher educators ‡z Glen Canyon (Utah and Ariz.) ‡v Congresses [650 Fully- controlled]
   • The geographic subdivision is correctly placed (after ‡a Teacher educators).
   • The main entry, Teacher educators, is highlighted in aqua to indicate that it can be subdivided geographically. See the legend at the top of the Control Headings window.
   • The heading is fully controlled to three separate authority records.
   
    Note:
   • Click any linked heading in the Control Headings window to display the authority record in a separate window.
   • Hover the mouse over a heading to see the LCCN for the authority record.
4. At any time:
   • Click Cancel to cancel heading control.
     Or
   • If you have taken action in the Control Headings window, click Undo to undo your last action, if needed.
5. Click Insert Heading next to the fully controlled heading.
   • The Control Heading window closes automatically.
   • The system inserts the new controlled heading in the bibliographic record and hyperlinks the heading to the exactly matched authority records.
6. When finished:
   • For a new record:
     1. Click Action > Holdings > Update Holdings [or Produce and Update Holdings or Alternate Produce and Update] to add the record to WorldCat.
   • For an existing record:
     1. Click Action > Replace Record [or Replace and Update Holdings] to replace the WorldCat record in WorldCat.
   
    Note:
   • If you did not lock the WorldCat record (see step 2), the system automatically locks the record before replacing it.
   • You must be logged on with at least a full level cataloging authorization to add a new record or replace a WorldCat record.
