Excerpt

WorldCat is a database dedicated mostly to books. If you have mostly books, you will want to use this catalog system to locate your publications if you do not have them already saved in a citations database.

To download your monograph/book publications into Elements, you can use WorldCat in GALILEO.

Please follow the step-by-step guide to upload your citations from WorldCat into Element.

Step 8: Review publications

 Once you’ve uploaded your citations, you may have to look at the citations and make sure all the data is correct.  Metadata is inputted by humans, so mistakes do happen.  Click on the “Mine” tab under “My publications.”

Look at the Summary tab for the citation, and check to make sure the information is correct.  Sometimes the metadata brought in from will misidentify the “type” of citation.  If you see that your Conference Presentation is being identified as a journal article, or your book chapter is being identified as an entire book, you’re will want to change it to the right type.

Click on the pencil next to the type information.

You’ll now see a drop down menu next to “Type.”  Click on that.

Step 7: Review and Edit

Sometimes items are not categorized properly in the online database or manually entered by other faculty members, so you may need to change the activity type to another type. Ex. I wrote a book chapter, but it typed it as a book. 

Use the pencil icon to change the type. Make sure you click "Save" to move the file to the other folder.
