    Holdings Policies - Description

    NOTE 1) When Aleph doesn't handle holdings correctly, e.g. year:vol.or year:no

    1. set up the prediction pattern correctly
    2. open items
    3. correct individual items to correct format
    4. check/correct prediction pattern back to correct format after the items have been opened

    NOTE 2) Each collection has its own HOL record

    NOTE 3) Multi-part monographs contain only enumeration. Serials contain enumeration and chronology.

    NOTE 4) The "+" is used for "secondary bibliographic unit" which is a discrete bibliographic unit that is supplementary or complementary to a basic bibliographic unit. (See also Supplementary Materials below) Examples of secondary bibliographic units are a map in a pocket inside a book, a supplement to a newspaper, a separate index to a serial publication, a set of updates to a loose-leaf publication, an answer book accompanying a textbook, a serial update service to a single part of a multipart unit, or a pamphlet accompanying an audiodisc.

    NOTE 5) Holding statement levels: 2) general guidance on extent of holdings and includes item identification (single monographs); 3)statement of summary of textent of holdings; always compressed at the highest level (i.e. $a $i only); 4) detailed extent of holdings including item identification which can be itemized or compressed (these can be mixed).

    Itemized: v. 4:no.1(1993:Jan.) v.4:no.2(1993:Feb.) v.4:no.3(1993:Mar.) v.4:no.4(1993:Apr.), v.4:no.6(1993:June)
    Compressed: v.4:no.1(1993:Jan.)-v.4:no.4(1993:Apr.), v.4:no.6(1993:June)

    NOTE 6) Combined issue: When a bibliographic unit is issued with a combined numbering - not when bound after receipt - separate the numbers by a forward slash
    Example: v.4:no.36(2003:Aug/Sep 29-5) It is correct for day numbers to look out of order. $a 4 $b 36 $i 2003 $j 08/09 $k 29-5
    More examples: v.5/6 v.4:no.1/2 v.4.no.4/v.5:no.1 v.33/v.44:no.2 (all issued together on a CD-ROM)

    Bound volume with gaps or with additional materials

      Tab2 and tab5 do not necessarily match and are not intended to do the same thing.
        Statement / Tab2 Description -- This corresponds to NISO's "Holdings statement" - a full statement of what we have which will include Enumeration levels but can also include more
          tab2 Description is the colons-parentheses info AND the plus "+" info OR more detailed info. The same NISO Holdings Statement instructions can also be used for a combined statement in an 866 on the HOL record giving a summary of multiple volumes in a single line (866) of text
          Example Descripton: v.16:no.1-5(1977:Apr.-Aug.),v.16:no.7(1977:Nov.),v.16:no.9-10(1978:Jan.-Feb.)
        Enumeration Levels / Tab5 Serial Levels -- This is to give the hierarchical "Enumeration levels" - a listing of the enumeration levels only
          tab5 Serials levels a-f and i-l are only for hierarchy. This is colons-parentheses info only in Description
          $o [Name of unit] is for supplements and/or indexes -- after + in Description
          $g,h,m are for alternate numbering (rarely used)
          Example for the above example: $a 16 $i 1977/1978

    Teachers guide, CD-ROM, etc. with book

    • Supplementary material in book (1 barcode)
      1 v. + 1 CD-ROM - note: use "1 v." when the item has no enumeration.
      1 v. + teacher's guide
        Tab2 Description is the colons-parentheses info AND the plus "+" info is for supplementary material contained in one physical unit.
    • Supplementary materials (multiple barcodes)
      Book has no Tab2 Description.
      Supplementary material has Tab2 Description, e.g. Map - because there is a map which is a separate item to be used with the book.
      (Note: if use an 866, use quotes: v. 3 + "teacher's guide")

    Mixed enumeration

      Description and/or 866
      1 score + 1 piano conductor part + 2 first violin parts + 2 second violin parts + 1 viola part + 1 cello part
      or
      1 score + 7 parts

    Volumes and textual enumeration

      bd.6:violin 2

      no.30-176 < Scattered issues > [no spaces] - Use for something that has many gaps
      Enum. Level I: 30-176 no.1-200 <200 = index:no.1-199> Enum. Level I: 1-200

    A hierarchical multipart unit may have a first-order designator with a caption and enumeration, but a subsequent order designator with only a name.

      v.1:1st violin v.1:2nd violin v.1:viola v.1:violoncello
      v.2:1st violin v.2:2nd violin v.2:viola v.2:violoncello
