  • If the transfer involves a title for "rmc,anx" or one of the "ranx" sublocations, follow the Rare Annex (12a) instructions below.
  • If the transfer involves superseded editions or volumes, see also Special Instructionsbelow.
  • If the title is a serial, check for and report an open purchase order to the Serials Unit supervisor, to make sure any new issues are processed for the correct location (or to simply close the PO as if applicable),.
  • If the title has a "Pamphlet" call number, or other non-LC classification, consult with the Cataloging supervisor about whether it can go to the new location as-is, or whether it needs to be re-cataloged/re-marked with a new call number.

If the physical piece(s)-in-hand does not fit the conditions above, or has been cleared by the Serials or Cataloging supervisor,  proceed to the following steps:

II. Single Part Item and Complete Multipart Item Transfers (for Partial Multi-Part Transfers, see section III below)

  1.  Display the Instance Record
    1.  Make sure the record is NOT suppressed in the database.  If it is suppressed, uncheck the Suppress from Discovery box. 
    2.  Enter an Administrative note for transfers using the format: date date:yyyymmdd ttype:w t userid:[netid] ploc:lts  lts  The macro for this is ,,t
  2.  Display the Holdings record that matches the old location and copy number of the title and edition in hand.  If there is any discrepancy between the piece and its records, consult with the DBQ supervisor.
    1.  Make sure the record is NOT suppressed in the database.  If it is suppressed, uncheck the Suppress from Discovery box. 
    2.  Change the Permanent Location field to the new location.  
    3.  If needed, add an appropriate copy number in the Holdings record.
    4. Add a Holdings Note (with Note type: Note) showing which collection the piece originally came from, and the date it was transferred.  Make sure the "Staff only" box is checked:

...

Exception: Not all transfers to the Annex require the Holdings note, as large transfer projects and book-moves can make it burdensome to add notes to every Holdings record.  LTS staff are still encouraged to add transfer notes for single, manual transfers whenever possible, however.

e.  Check the  Oversize the Oversize Chart for prefixes and/or suffixes appropriate for the new location, if applicable, and adjust the Call Number Prefix/Suffix fields accordingly.

...

III. Partial Multipart Item Transfers  

  1. In the Instance record, add the Administrative note for Transfers as described above (best to use the macro ,,t)
  2. Display the Display the holdings record that matches the old location and copy number of the title and edition in hand.
  3. Delete the volumes and/or numbers to be transferred from the original Holdings statements,  INCLUDING INCLUDING supplements and indexes, if applicable.
  4. Save changes to original Holdings record.
  5. Display the holdings record that matches the NEW (destination) location and copy number. If there is no holdings record for the new location, skip to step 8 10 below.
  6. Verify that the destination Holdings record is not suppressed from the OPACdiscovery. If it is,  uncheck UN-CHECK the "Suppress from Discovery" box.
  7. Add the appropriate "Transfer From" note to the Holdings Notes of the destination record (Note type: Note), as in the above example, but note which volumes were transferred. (e.g. "Vols. 3 and 4 transferred from Echols Ref.")

    • Check the Oversize Chart for prefixes and/or suffixes appropriate for the new location.
    • Search FOLIO to verify that the old call number is not already in use for the new location. If it is already in use, add a w suffix to the last cutter in the call number, or consult with a cataloger or DBQ staff.
    • Add an appropriate transfer note to the Holdings note, as in the above example.
    • Include appropriate Holdings statements for volumes, supplements and indexes.

b.  Change Permanent Location field to match the newly-changed location in the holdings record.

c.  Edit the Permanent Loan Type, if appropriate -- for example: when transferring a title to or from a "Non-Circulating" reference collection. If you are transferring a title to a (Rare Annex #12a) location (e.g. "rmc,anx"), set the Item Type to "Non-Circulating". (NOTE: These are the only Annex locations for which the Item Type should be set to "Non-Circulating")

(NOTE: These are the only Annex locations for which the Item Type should be set to "Non-Circulating")

V. Final Steps

  1. Re-display the Instance record.  If it is suppressed, uncheck the suppress from Discovery box.
  2. If you unsuppress the bib record, add an additional 948 to indicate a fast shelve statistic (,,s).  Note: If a new BIB record is created, add additional 948 statistics fields for inputting ( ,,i ) and fast-catting ( ,,f ) to insure that the record is exported to OCLC as a newly cataloged record.
  3. Save the record to the database.
  4. Line out all previous location stamps -- (see exception below).
  5. Edit pencilled locations and call numbers -- (see exception below).

In addition, for unbound issues not barcoded separately, give recent issues (as displayed in the OPAC) to LTS Serials or Documents for further processing.
    If the transfers are computer disks , sound recordings   , or video recordings  , do additional processing if required for the new location.
    Exception: for unbound serials not barcoded separately, edit only the first and last issue in each bundle.
    Insert a location flyer and place completed transfers on the appropriate shelf (#12a) .
