- Locate, import, or create a matching Instance record.
- Edit the Instance with administrative notes and/or statistical codes as applicableappropriate to the transaction (inputting, maintenance, etc.).
- Save and close the Instance record.
- Locate or create a Holdings record and add the appropriate Holdings Type, location, and call number* information for that first title.
- Make sure If the first title is part of a multi-volume or serial, make sure it is represented in any the Holdings Statements, if applicable (see below for more on Holdings Statements, Enumerations, etc.)
- Add Oversize designation for the dimensions of the overall volume , if applicable.covers, even if the first part is smaller than the outer cover, and would not be oversize on its own. (**See also special cases below) What if it starts with a v.1 that is not oversize by itself, but is inside Oversize covers, AND we also have v. 2-4, which are not oversize? Would they all be shelved in Oversize? Or would there be a Holdings note for v.1 saying it's shelved in Oversize? Would there be a separate Holdings for v.1 (Oversize), and for v. 2-4 (non Oversize)?
- In the In the Holdings Notes section, add a note, with Note type: Note, identifying the NEXT (second) part in the piece. Use the format "Bound with: [author name] (if available (last name, first)). Title of resource" (or enough of the title to allow for a reasonable search (see examples 1 and 2 below). NOTE: the Holdings notes should be public. Do NOT check the "staff only" box at the end of the note field.
- Save and close the record.
- Alternate Approach: We may also encounter a Bound-with resource whose Holdings note indicates that the title is the first in a volume that has a certain spine title. The term "lettered" is used to note what the spine title is (see examples 3 and 4). This approach is often seen with Rare materials in the database. When creating new Bound-with records, LTS staff should follow step 4 above (as illustrated in the first 2 examples), but we should be aware of this second approach for "lettered" resources when maintaining or correcting records.
*{Should we have a note somewhere about the Call numbers? Is that covered in a cataloging procedure? They should all be the same for the titles/parts in the resource (unless they're series-class, and the numbers at the end would be different)?, and call number is for first part, and applies to all later parts, correct? -Separate Holdings for single issues/volumes of a serial/multi-part/serial, vol. so it would share the same (main/first) call #? (unless they're series-class, and the numbers at the end would be different)? We should NOT add sequence numbers to the Call numbers, correct? (even though we may run into them?))
