NOTES:
For accompanying guides located in the Media Center, use item type BOOK (circulating) or BOOK- (non-circulating) for the printed guide. The circulation status should match the non-book material circulation statuts.

For AV material accompanying a Central book, process the book normally and give the AV item a separate item record (CALL level) and apply the above tables to the nonbook item.

* The Media Center will attach barcodes if they are supplied unattached.

** Floppy disks for Central need to be backed up by the Preservation Team. Remember to send remaining barcode to be attached to the backup disc.

*** CAT began assigning videotape, DVD or VCD numbers in Fall 2004. Place on Marking shelf.
PAL vs NTSC: Most videotapes and DVDs are NTSC format. If you have a PAL version of a videotape, it should be converted to NTSC. Add both versions to Acorn. Designate PAL and NTSC at the end of the call number of their respective versions. If you have a PAL DVD, add as is, but use the PAL designation at the end of the call number.
Standard size dvd box: If any DVD, VCD, or DVD-ROM comes in a non-standard size container (normal = 5.5 in. x 7.5 in.), replace with standard container, found in CAT.

**** Achive Cds are housed at the Annex, but get a Central Call Library. Barcode regularly. Assign call number in same range as regular Central cdroms. The ARCHIVE-CD item type is a shadowed location. Do not also shadow at the call number level.

***** Add 953 note to bib. record: ATTENTION: Pick up CDROM at Government Information Media Services for use on CD-ROM Station.
If creating a holdings note for multiple discs, in place of a call number in the |h, add the note: Held at Circulation Desk.
