We currently leave it up to our libraries to delete pre-cats (though I know it is possible to identify and delete them in batch in the database if you have access).

For our ILLs we recommend that libraries re-use the same barcodes over and over again to lower the number of pre-cats that get created/need to be deleted. http://docs.libraries.coop/policy/_inter_library_loan.html#_using_pre_cats_for_incoming_ill

Quoting Kate Coleman via Evergreen-general <[email protected]>:

We would love to know if there is a batch(ish) way to do this as well. We
utilize precats for ILLs most often, so right now we delete them one by one
at time of return.

Hello Everyone



We were just curious how other consortium handle their pre-cat record
management.  Do you run a script to automatically delete items or do you
have a staff member that does it?



Thank you,
