Central CDROM Procedures

GENERAL PROCEDURES

HOLDING CODES---Since the holding code on an order request designates the circulation policy, physical location, and processing procedures through Resource Services, carefully review the holding code options below to verify the correct holding code for title being ordered. Be sure to include this holding code on any order request regardless of method of submitting the request.

STANDING ORDERS WITH CUMULATIVE UPDATES---If the title is cumulative with each update, a note should be added to the purchase request indicating update frequency and instructions for handling the superseded CDs. Order Services will include these instructions in a note in the order record.

CANCELLATION OF STANDING ORDERS---Contact Chris Waldrop to cancel a standing order. He will cancel the order, update the order record, and notify Cataloging so the Acorn record can be edited.

DESELECTED TITLES---Bibliographers are responsible for identifying subject CDs (David for Reference titles) that should be withdrawn from the collection. If the title does not involve archiving, send CD and accompanying materials to Zora Breeding with a note to withdraw. If in doubt or a question about archiving and transferring to the Annex, send CD and accompanying materials to Mary Beth Blalock. (Titles appropriate for archiving include one-time purchases which no longer need to be available in CD format because of availability on the web, absorbed by another title, etc.)
