1. Assign UMVID, UMDVD, or UMBLU number by entering title in next available cell in the appropriate accession list (I:\TechSrvc\CatalogingBMS\Accession Lists).   Write UMVID, UMDVD, or UMBLU number on routing slip.  [Jo Ann]
   • Do not assign a number to a gift until the point of cataloging.
2. Search Aleph for matching record. [Pat, Jo Ann]
   If a matching record is found, go to 3.
   If no matching record is found:
   • Search OCLC for matching record.
   • Limit search to visual materials.
   • Refer to Video Copy-Cataloging Guidelines for matching and record evaluation guidelines.
   • If a match is found and not held by MUB, export to Aleph and go to 3.
   • If no match is found OR the matching record needs to be upgraded (refer to Video Copy-Cataloging Guidelines below) OR the matching record needs subject headings, give the record to the Electronic Resources/Media Cataloger. Note: It's helpful to add the OCLC number to the DVD Routing slip.
     
3. If the record has not already been cataloged by another institution, then copy-catalog based on Video Copy-Cataloging Guidelines below. [Pat, Jo Ann] If the item was given to the eresources/media cataloger, it will be returned at this point, without the items and holdings work completed.
4. Process videos:
   • Place barcode on spine of videocassette (not in spot where call# goes) or inside DVD case, above disc.  [Pat, Jo Ann]
   • If there is accompanying material (like a booklet) that will not circulate in the same container with the videocassette/DVD, give it its own barcode and fill out the “Enumeration A” and the “Description” field in the Aleph Item record.  Use a brief form of the term that has been used to describe it in the bib record (e.g. “guide,” “disc,” “booklet”).  Write the complete call number on a post-it so that the labeler will know which term to use.
   • Multi-part items:  Generally, barcode each cassette and each DVD container.  The object is to get the person checking the item in or out to make sure that all of the parts are present.  When deciding what caption to use on the item records, take your cue from the pieces themselves or the bibliographic record.  If they don’t supply a caption, just use “pt.”   Write the complete call number on a post-it so that the labeler will know which term to use.

This field might be present on enhanced DVD records, and refers to the computer-related information of an enhanced DVD-Video. If an 006 is present, verify that the first character is coded m, for electronic resources. If you decide to add an 006 (because there is significant enhanced content; this is not required), you can use the guided entry function under Edit in Connexion, or you can paste in [m        u] (just what’s inside the brackets).

Add this field if it’s missing. Make any necessary corrections, according to the following:

020*

Matching:
