Notes for 952 Field

Copy Level Notes

Revised 8/31/2004

 

Notes should appear in the order listed below. Each element is separated by a semicolon and a space:

Bibliographer’s last name: should be in capital letters, eg. "HAAR". First initial should be used if more than one bibliographer has same last name. "WILSON,F;".

Fund: last 4 digits of the fund to indicate subject area.

Holding Code: Add the correct Holding Code to this field (replaces "Location") CEN-REF etc.)

Order/Receipt notes: notes about the order or receipt of the item such as RUSH, INTENT DUP, BKSET ANAL S.O.; Recd on AAA0000, etc. Include any additional notes from bibliographers such as: Supply Paper; Do Not Bind, etc. This is also where to add the priority level of the order:

Priority of Order
Note in 952
Patron Request NOTIFY
Rush RUSH
SuperRush SUPERRUSH
Reserve RESERVE
Reference (identified by Holding Code)
Leisure Reading Collection (identified by Holding Code)
Other Level 2 LEVEL 2
Level 3 (no note necessary)
Replacement REPLACEMENT COPY

Requester: When there is a requester in the order who has asked to be notified when the book is cataloged (PATRON REQUEST), the requester’s name should appear in parentheses after the fund code, followed by an asterisk, eg. "(WILLIAMSON*)". This same format should be used when it is the bibliographer that has asked to be notified when the title is cataloged, eg. "BOYER; 0300; (BOYER*)". See below for additional examples.

If the requester has not asked to be notified, but has only asked that their name be added to the record, the requester's name should also appear in parentheses after the fund code, followed by XN, eg. "(THOMPSON-XN)". (It is generally the bibliographer that asks for a patron or faculty members name to be added to the record in this case.)

NEVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, ADD A REQUESTER'S SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER TO THE RECORD IN EITHER THE BIB RECORD OR THE ORDER RECORD; IF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS NEEDED TO IDENTIFY THE REQUESTER, THE PHONE NUMBER MAY BE USED IF AVAILABLE.

For added volumes, idents, etc, verifiers initials and the date appear at the end of the 952 field (xxx; MMDDYYYY).

For example: 952: BIBLIOGRAPHER; FUND; HOLDING CODE; NOTES; (REQUESTER*); verifier; DATE
