For multipart audiovisual material (i.e., DVDs and audiobooks), attach your holding to the appropriate set or individual record based on how your library intends to circulate the item.
The number of discs in the 300 $a field of the bibliographic record MUST match the number of discs that you are circulating.
Dividing a set and circulating individual discs or groups of discs may require creation of a new bibliographic record.
Items are not allowed to circulate in multiple cases with only one barcode. Each separate case must have its own barcode and be individually cataloged.
Examples:
|
|
Use Set Record |
Use matching individual or group records |
|
Box set of entire TV series |
Entire set will circulate as one item |
Box set will be divided into seasons in separate cases with with their own barcodes |
|
Blu-ray/DVD Combo pack |
Entire pack will circulate as one item |
Pack will be split, each disc individually cased and barcoded |
|
Multidisc audiobooks |
Entire set will circulate as one item |
Set will be divided into groups of discs, each group in a separate case with their own barcodes |
