Scope: Preliminary records are created for books where no cataloging copy is found in Voyager or OCLC. Items for unit libraries for which LTS does the processing are assigned to a storage code for that unit. O/K/U items are assigned to a storage code for the broad language category in which the item is written. Below is a list of the storage codes for both the unit libraries, and O/K/U storages, with the languages that fall into each.
