Follow these procedures for special libraries serving limited clientel usually in distant locations. The instructions below apply to both monographs and serials.

These libraries include:

• ave,mura Casa Muraro is a building in Venice, Italy that is used by Columbia students studying Italian art. The Casa includes a 7500 volume library of works mostly on Italian art. Suppressed CLIO records are created as the basis for a CD-ROM catalog for the Casa library. New titles are not supposed to be added to this collection.

• egyp Dakhla Library is located in Egypt and serves Columbia graduate and undergraduate archaeology students. The collection consists of works on papyrology, Egyptology and classics. Records for this collection display in the OPAC and are NOT to be suppressed.

• ewng Ewing is the name of Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory's research vessel. This small collection consists of science and popular works.

• ital Staff at the Italian Academy are responsible for cataloging a small book collection in CLIO for in-house use. The materials are gifts from the Italian Government and are not barcoded. Holdings records are suppressed. The bibliographic record is also suppressed if it is the only active copy in the system.

1. Materials for satellite libraries should be cataloged rush and can not be backlogged. They should be cataloged regardless of other copies in the System. A satellite library does not count when considering if an item is a duplicate . They are NOT going to be bound.

2. Materials will have a wide green "reserves" rider to prevent unbound materials from going to the Bindery.

3. Materials receive standard cataloging, using LC classification.

4. For locations ave,mura, ewng, and ital suppress the holdings record by placing a check mark in the "Suppress from the OPAC" box on the MFHD System tab. Follow the procedure in CPM-553. Do not suppress holdings for location egyp.

5. For locations ave,mura, ewng, and ital if this is the only copy, the bibliographic record should also be suppressed by placing a check mark in the "Suppress from the OPAC" box on the BIB System tab. Do not suppress if this is the only copy for egyp.

6. Mark and barcode material as usual.

7. Check out all items to the LABEL pseudopatron. BSP will check in the material and route it to the appropriate individual who will ship the items to the satellite library.

Note: After egyp materials are labeled in BSP, they are routed to Butler Collection maintenance. After discharging, materials are routed to the Ancient & Medieval History and Religion Librarian to ship to the library in Egypt.
