Multiple Copies Example 1

different subcollections -- different call numbers

• The CALL (or LCAL as required) will contain the call number for the primary subcollection
• At least two copy structures are used, one for an item in each subcollection
• The CCAL ‡a for each item will contain its appropriate subcollection designation followed by a space
• The CCAL ‡b for each item will contain the full call number appropriate for that item
  • NOTE: Every item gets a call number in CCAL ‡b, even when that call number repeats the one in CALL (or LCAL)

This example shows a basic serials title that is housed in two different subcollections within the same library. This example also demonstrates the use of the asterisk (*) in RLIN to indicate an unclassified title. The asterisk gets translated into an appropriate note (i.e., currently "SHELVED BY TITLE") during the Geac tape loading process.

NOTE: You must include a space after the subcollection and before the ‡b in CCAL so that the subcollection and call number display properly on the RLIN PAR screen. Without a space they run together. However, if the space is placed after the ‡b rather than before it, some IRIS programs will sort the call number incorrectly in those reports.
