Call Numbers for Sound Recordings
1. INTRODUCTION
Compact discs are the predominant type of sound recording collected by Fondren Library. The collection includes LPs, cassette and reel-to-reel tapes, and 78s but these are mostly obsolete media. Call numbers for sound recordings of music are entered in the Sirsi class scheme ASIS.
...
Sound recordings of non-musical performances, e.g., books on tape, spoken recordings of plays, poetry, etc., and CDs of musical performances accompanying a monograph receive their call numbers according to LC classification practices.
