04/04 354 Cataloging
With this new source of information, many libraries are giving up their vertical
files for all materials except for local, historical, genealogical, and similar types of
information. If you still want to catalog your vertical file materials, here are two
approaches you can take:
Option 1: Catalog each physical vertical file cabinet as a separate record, with
subject headings for the file folders and title added entry access. Use the
ThreeDimensional Artifact, Object template.
Option 2: Catalog each subject file folder as a separate record, with subject
heading access and title added entry access. Use the Serials (Printed
Periodical, etc.) template.
You can also create authority records to generate crossreferences (SEE and SEE
ALSO) to the vertical file to provide even more access to these resources.
These topics are very lengthy and we can't cover all the details here. However,
more information is available on our Web site at www.fsc.follett.com .
Videorecordings
It's becoming more and more important to catalog videorecordings, especially so
that patrons can search on them through the OPAC. See AACR2R, Chapter 7 for
the cataloging specifics. The chief source of information is the title screen(s) or the
container or container label. Use the template for Video (Film, Filmstrip,
Transparencies), and fill in as needed. Here are some suggestions:
