SECTION 21
HOLDINGS FIELDS--845--TERMS GOVERNING USE AND REPRODUCTION NOTE


$a Terms governing use and reproduction

Availability categories are the responsibility of the appropriate archivist; any questions about them should be taken to that archivist. With one exception for television as below, cataloging staff should not have to supply availability notes, and should not do so without consulting the appropriate archivist on a title by title basis. If inventory forms are received without an availability status checked, the appropriate archivist should be contacted and asked to supply this information in the future.

  • Availability status is basically recorded in 905 $f (as a code) and 852 $b as part of the location code. Routine notes that translated these codes used to be made in the 845 field, and many still exist in our records. With the migration to Voyager, we ceased making routine notes. From now on, the 845 field should contain only unusual information concerning availability that could not be deduced from the three basic availability codes incorporated into the location codes.

    EXAMPLES:

    The following types of notes will be placed on items with W or withdrawn status:

    Do not add the following notes, even when they are checked on an inventory form:
