Scope: This procedure summarizes instructions for processing computer disks for individual libraries. It includes instructions for CD-ROMs (computer optical discs), DVD-ROMs and floppy disks (3-1/2 in. and 5-1/4 in.), either cataloged as the main item or as accompanying material.
Note: The "disk/disc" distinction between floppy disks and CD-ROMs/DVD-ROMs should be used on the bib record and for holdings information on the MFHD. For the "|k Disk" subfield in the 852 field, use "disk" for both floppy disks and CD-ROMs/DVD-ROMs.
