Scope: This procedure outlines the process by which preservation photocopies and printouts of digital scans are cataloged. Most of this work is done in the Database Quality Unit. However, if the reproductions were made from uncataloged originals or if the originals were assigned a non-LC type call number (e.g. Pamphlet , ArW), Database Quality staff will consult with Original Cataloging staff for the creation of bib records and/or the assignment of call numbers.
*This procedure will be reviewed in March 2016, following the trial period for a new approach to handling preservation photocopies.
