Internet Resource with Printout as Added Copy

This section pertains to monograph and serial titles that have a printout as an added copy to an Internet resource record.

The preferred method is to catalog the resource alone and not to create added copies for printouts. However, printouts may be added per Law Library Collection Development Policy, per request. Printouts to accompany Internet resources are provided by Acquisitions or Reference.

1. No mention of printout is made in the bibliographic record. Cataloging is done for the Internet resource only.
1. On Bib screen, add 856 field formatted as follows:

856:40 : |u http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/pub/pdf/njrp92.pdf

2. Copy 1 on holdings record reflects the Internet resource.
1. For monographs:

001 1U |a ll,in |b No call number

2. For serials:

001 2U |a ll,in |b No call number

3. For periodicals:

001 2T |a ll,in |b Electronic journal

3. Activate Copy 2 for the printout, using correct Copy status code, and location and circulation status codes.
1. The printout should be labelled copy 1 (1) for end processing, and this status should be noted in holdings.

002 1L CN la la |b [call number]
NOTES |a printout/labelled copy 1

4. Count on stat slip as 1T, 1V (or as appropriate), with call number assigned to printout noted.

Internet Site As Added Copy

This section pertains to monograph and serial titles that have an Internet site as an added copy on a print record. Should also be followed for government documents titles.

• Government documents examples: ECW2511 and ECZ6837.

For a government document on the Internet, make sure you find the URL for the entire document. Government sites will often display a document in one or more of the following formats: Adobe Acrobat (PDF) format, ASCII text format, and HTML format. We want to add all available URLs. To distinguish between the different formats you will need to add a |z to the beginning of the 856:

856:41 : |z ASCII version: |u http://www.ncjrs.org/txtfiles/163061.txt
856:41 : |z PDF version: |u http://www.ncjrs.org/pdffiles/163061.pdf
856:41 : |z HTML version: |u http://www.ncjrs.org/163061.html

1. If there is only one URL in the record there is no need to add the |z version note.
2. PURLs: You may find a record that has two URLs, one that looks "normal" such as: http://www.flra.gov/23.html and one that is a PURL (Permanent Uniform Resource Locator) such as:

http://purl.access.gpo.gov/GPO/LPS1475

Keep both URLs, but don’t add a |z to either since both URLS should take you to the same document, not two different versions of it. Example at EDM6743.

• The Cataloging Department maintains a list of government sites to search for documents available on the Internet:
• Also try the home page of the publishing agency.
3. Continue with steps below for all titles.
4. Activate Copy 2 (or the next available copy) in the HLDG screen formatted as follows:
1. For monographs:

1U |a ll,in |b No call number

2. For serials:

2U |a ll,in |b No call number

3. For periodicals:

2T |a ll,in |b Electronic journal

5. Create MHLD on activated copy for serials and periodicals as follows:

LL FMT H DT 03/06/96 R/DT 05/26/99 STAT c RT y E/L 4

R/STAT 4 MTHD g DT/CAN  G/RTN 8 S/RTN CMPLT 0 LEND u REPOL u LAN eng
