Adding the Piece

  • All bibliographic data on the MARC record needs to be verified. There is a separate procedure for "Booksets" and for "Monographic series. If your piece in hand is a bookset, The "Adding volumes to cataloged bookset procedure" will be followed. Supervisor/trainer will review this procedure with trainee as training progresses.


  • If the piece in hand is a serial: Check and verify all bibliographic data on the MARC record including ISSN’s and ISBN’s, titles, corporate bodies, imprint information. Make a note of any changes, corrections, or additions that need to be made and SAVE FOR SUPERVISOR/TRAINER. We will add the appropriate notes. ** See cataloging documentation for further instructions on edition bibliographic records for sets and serials.


  • Update the holdings in the 866 field to reflect what you have in hand & save. All holdings records for active serials and sets should have an 866 field with subfield giving our holdings and another 866 with subfield x showing what designator or designators are used in creating item records. With serials, holdings may be stated one way (e.g.: Vol. 1 (1962)- v. 450 (2001) and for item records to be reverse e.g.: 2001 (vol. 40).


  • Check to see how we’ve added in past, by clicking on "Get items". You create an item record with a status of in process for the piece you have by clicking on "New item". Wand barcode, and follow numbering of previous items for enum and chron. Save to database.


  • For hardbound material, one barcode is placed on the upper left hand corner of the cover, and the second barcode is placed on the last page of the volume, unless there is a picture For softbound material, the barcodes are taped to the inside front cover, and the holding number is written in the gutter next to the order#, fund #. It is a good idea to double check the holdings and item record to make sure there are no typos.


  • We write the call number on the verso of the title page about ¼"-1/2" from the top of the page. If location is not Firestone stacks, write the location symbol with in parentheses as part of the call number. We spell out the following locations when writing them: ANX=(Annex). FLMB=(FilmB).
