Title

Cutting cataloging costs : accepting LC Classification call numbers from OCLC cataloging copy

Source

Abstract

Cataloging policy at the Alabama University Libraries allows the acceptance of LCC call numbers from OCLC cataloguing copy into the local database without shelflisting. Reports results of a study to measure error rates for locally unshelflisted samples and a control group of locally assigned and shelflisted call numbers to determine whether this policy produces disarrangement of the local online shelflist. Results show no significant differences between samples, indicating that the cataloguer's task of local shelflisting is not a cost effective use of their time. Analysis of the error data suggests that the types of disorder created by shelflisting errors would not impede the retrieval of items while subject browsing, but further study is needed to confirm this
