PRELIMINARY RECORDS BASED ON STANDARD LC OR MEMBER COPY

Record Creation Procedures

For definition of standard copy see CPM-010, CPM-011 or CPM-012

Preliminary records based on standard LC or member copy are created primarily by acquisitions staff at the point of ordering or routing an item received on a standing order. Acquisitions staff makes no modifications or adjustments to standard LC or member copy records.

If the record matches the book in hand, cataloging staff accepts fixed field and variable field information present on record, and finishes cataloging an item according to the standard copy editing guidelines.

Note: Delete 035 field if record is copied in CLIO or passed from RLIN but retain the 035 if record is exported from OCLC. Go to 035 field summary
