General Notes:
1. Do not designate as oversize. Unit makes its own oversize decisions on a case-by-case basis.
2. O/K/U sublocations which use oversize symbols, such as ref: Apply the same oversize designations as for other materials for those locations, i.e. both |k Oversize and |m +, ++, +++, as appropriate. See examples in Olin section. Do not use oversize symbols for Newpapers or items in LTS reference collection.
3. Music Library: In the event of two $m entries, the + should be in the first $m.
4. Olin maps: Maps Dept. staff make decisions on a case-by-case basis. Include designation in call number as indicated on map and pre-cataloging worksheet.
5. Conservation staff will create a contour case for undersize or "tiny" items (less than 12 cm. in height) for O/K/U. Whether they are hardcover or paperback, catalogers should place them on the softcover truck with a note on flyer to create contour case.
6. Items designated as +++ for Olin, Uris and Kroch Asia, will be housed in the Annex, with locs: olin,anx ; uris, anx ; ech,anx ; sasa,anx ; was,anx.
7. Items classed in G ++ for Olin will be housed in the Annex: olin,anx.
8. Items for Olin/Uris/Asia stacks which are wider than 20 cm. require an oversize designation. This pertains in particular to juvenile books that are often as wide as they are high. Library "regular-size" shelves will handle no more than 20 cm. in width.
