Birren Collection (Haas Arts Library) Catalog Processing Notes

  1. Scope. This special collection is dedicated to color. It is not restricted to art, but includes any topic where color is involved, including paint, optics, philosophy, dyes and dyeing, design, marketing, psychology, etc. In some cases the relationship to color may simply be specimens of color printing. The range of LCSH color terms is unfortunately rather limited. Sometimes Getty and other thesauri can be helpful additions.

Bound-With Procedures. Appendix. Unlinking Bibliographic Records

The Macro Express bound-with macro can link the wrong bibliographic record to the host. For example, if a guest record MFHD or Item record is open, and the record number of the MFHD or item record matches the record number of a bibliographic record in the Orbis database, the macro will link that bibliographic record to the host.

To unlink a bibliographic record, use the following procedure.

1. Retrieve the MFHD for the host.

Bound-With Procedures. Appendix. Manual Procedures

OPTIONAL PRACTICE

Follow this procedure if the macro is not used.

1. Identify the first title in the volume. This title will be the "host" title.

2. Find the bibliographic record, and create an item record for that title if one does not already exist. If the volume circulates, add a barcode to this item record.

3. Go to the host title's MFHD or create one if the host title lacks a MFHD.
