 +====== Using RIMMF. Tutorial #9, Clone a Manifestation and Expression ======
 +
 +In this tutorial, we are going to look for a Manifestation, view a possible match that is already in the EI, and learn about cloning a Manifestation and Expression.
 +
 +===== Open RIMMF =====
 +
 +  * Open RIMMF
 +  * Make sure that you are using the 'Goudge' data folder that you created in [[detailstutorial1|Tutorial #1]]
 +  * If necessary, change to that data folder (see: [[howto:changedatafolder|Change to a different folder of RIMMF records]])
 +
 +==== Alternate: Use a pre-built folder ====
 +
 +If you want to jump to this tutorial without doing the previous tutorials, follow the [[menu:downloadweb | "Download Web Folder" instructions]] and download the following folder from our website:
 +  * http://rimmf.com/data/zips/AfterTutorial_8.zip
 +
 +  If you intend to use this file to proceed through the remaining tutorials, 
 +    remember that it is located in your '\RIMMF3\imports\zip' folder.
 +
 +
 +===== Search for a Manifestation =====
 +
 +  We are going to look for a record 
 +    for an ebook version of Pilgrim's Inn
 +      Hendrickson Publishers Marketing, LLC
 +      ISBN 978-1-61970-142-7
 +      First eBook edition -- April 2013
 +
 +  * <F3>
 +  * Change the Search Source to '[BIB]Title'
 +  * Search: Pilgrim's Inn
 +  * Look just below the <Search> button
 +
 +  Notice that RIMMF says we already have 3 records
 +    in the EI, that match what we searched: 
 +    "3:RIMMF EI" in blue
 +
 +  * Click on that notification
 +
 +  This takes us to the EI, where we see 3 headings highlighted.
 +    
 +  The heading for: 
 +    "Pilgrim's inn. Hendrickson Publishers Marketing. 
 +    2013. Volume" looks close, except for "Volume"; 
 +    we need "Online resource"
 +   
 +  Let's say we can't find a Bib record for the ebook, anywhere;
 +    so we will clone the Volume data that we have
 +    to make it into data for an online resource.
 +
 +===== Clone the Manifestation =====
 +
 +  * Double-click on the "Hendrickson" heading
 +  * Select File | Clone record 
 +    * Read more about 'cloning' [[menu:clonerecord|**HERE**]]
 +
 +  If you are certain that you will be able to use
 +    the Expression data that was linked to the Manifestation that you cloned,
 +    then choose <Keep relationships>. If you are not certain about this,
 +    then choose <Remove relationships>, and check the Expression data later.
 +    
 +  For now, let us say that we are not certain.
 +
 +  * Select <Remove relationships> 
 +  * Select the template: <manifestation template TMQ.txt>
 +  * Click <OK>
 +  * Click <Add record>
 +
 +  Now, let's see what we have to add or change
 +    in this new record.
 +
 +  No change to 'Title Proper'
 +
 +  No change to 'Statement of Responsibility'
 +
 +  * Change 'Designation of Edition' to: **First eBook edition**
 +    * Place cursor in the Text box
 +    * <F6> to clear the contents
 +    * Enter the new statement
 +      * <Enter>
 +
 +  No change to 'Place of Publication'
 +
 +  * Change 'Publisher's Name' to: Hendrickson Publishers Marketing**, LLC**
 +  * Change 'Date of Publication' to: **April** 2013
 +
 +  No change to 'Title Proper of Series' 
 +    or 'Numbering within Series'
 +    or 'Mode of Issuance'
 +
 +  * Add data for 'Identifier for the Manifestation':  **ISBN 978-1-61970-142-7**
 +
 +  * Change 'Media Type' to: **computer**
 +  * Change 'Carrier Type' to: **online resource**
 +
 +  * Change 'Number of units' to: **1**
 +  * Click on 'Type of Unit (Text)' and change it to 'Type of Unit (Other)'
 +  * Click on the Text box
 +    * Type: **online resource**
 +
 +  * Click on the Text box for 'Extent statement' to update it
 +
 +  * Click on the Text box for 'Dimensions'
 +    * Right-click on the element options column and select <Clear>; or press <F6>
 +
 +  * Find element: 'File Type'
 +    * Click on any element label
 +    * Type: **File**
 +      * RIMMF jumps to the first matching element label
 +      * <Tab>
 +    * Add data for 'File Type': **text file**
 +
 +  * Add data for 'Equipment or System Requirement': **Requires Kindle reader**
 +
 +  * Click on the Text box for 'Composite Key' to update it
 +
 +===== Check Whether an Expression already in the EI can be Used =====
 +
 +  * Right-click on the Text box for 'Expression Manifested'; or press <F5>
 +  * Select <Check EI for Expression>
 +  * Select: "Goudge, Elizabeth, 1900-1984. Herb of grace. Text. English"
 +
 +  Because you selected <Check for Expression>
 +    rather than <Link to (EI)>;
 +    the record is opened rather than being immediately linked-to;
 +    which is good, because you need to check
 +    the data for this Expression
 +    to see whether it applies to your new Manifestation,
 +    or whether you need to clone this data
 +    to make a new Expression record.
 +
 +  * [[menu:switchtemplate|Switch template]] <Ctrl+Alt+T> to:  <expression template TMQ.txt>
 +
 +  This template will show you expression elements that 
 +    have not yet been provided for this Expression,
 +    but that you might need for your new resource.
 +    
 +  'Content Type' is still: text
 +  'Language of Expression' is still: English
 +  Accept 'Date of Expression': 1993 (for the first date of the English text expression)
 +
 +  As far as I can see, no additional expression elements
 +    shown in the expanded template,
 +    are needed for the new resource;
 +    so we can link our new Manifestation to the existing Expression.
 +
 +===== Link the Manifestation to the Existing Expression=====
 +
 +  * Click on the last 'Manifestation of Expression' in the Expression record
 +    * <F2> to copy the element
 +  * Click on the Text box of the new element
 +    * <F5>
 +    * Select <Link to (Open)>
 +    * Select the online resource version
 +  * Save the record
 +
 +===== View the R-Tree for your set =====
 +
 +  * Click on the [W] button
 +  * Open the R-Tree
 +  * Expand the English Expression heading
 +
 +  Note that we now have 4 manifestations in English.
 +  
 +  Just for fun,
 + 
 +  * Right-click on the heading for: Eliots of Damerosehay saga (Series)
 +    * Select <R-Tree this>
 +  * Expand the heading for: Herb of grace
 +  * Dig just the heading for the English Expression <Ctrl+D>
 +
 +  Notice that starting with the Eliots of Damerosehay saga (Series)
 +    takes us to all manifestations of the "Herb of grace" work
 +    even the ones that do not have that series as a
 +    Title Proper of Series
 +
 +===== End this Tutorial =====
 +
 +  * Close everything
 +
 +If you are finished playing with RIMMF for now, close RIMMF. If you want to proceed, go to [[detailstutorial10|Tutorial #10]]
