*Microform copies of printed materials. *Microform copies of printed materials already in our collection should be cataloged on separate records and not added as copies to the print record. Past practice (pre-AACR2) was to add microforms as copies to the print record.
Microfilm Serials going to the LSC, please follow these special instructions -
- All microfilm serials that are going to the LSC should have |z(View for Holdings) call number.
- In the case of LSC-Analytic Home Location, use the call number of the reel that it belongs to. Also add a 590 note explaining which reel/record that the information can be found on.
Barcoding and current location. With the exception of microfilms, microforms not barcoded. Microfilm reels are barcoded and items linked to the bibliographic record by Cataloging staff for firm orders and set standing orders, and by Acquistions staff for serial subscriptions. For all microforms, the current location should not be changed to INPROCESS but should remain the same as the home location as microforms are not labeled by the Marking Table. Exception: Microfilm going directly to the LSC has a current location of INPROCESS until the item is processed for the LSC.
