[Heb-NACO] LC adding literary call numbers to NARs?

[Taub, Jeremiah Aaron]

Dear Heidi and All,

Thank you very much for your query, Heidi. Please find below the response from the IJ Section.

The Israel and Judaica (IJ) Section at the Library of Congress continues to provide cutter numbers for literary authors. If there's a number that a library would  like LC to "reserve," (if LC does not yet own or LC staff have not yet cataloged works by that author), they could email Edie Creeger (ecre at loc.gov<mailto:ecre at loc.gov>) or Nahid Gerstein (nger at loc.gov<mailto:nger at loc.gov>)  to set up a "dummy" bibliographic record to save a place for the author in the shelflist. Of course, PCC/HEB NACO libraries can always add the cutter themselves in an 053 _4 with $5 with their institutional code. If LC needs to add another number (if the PCC-Library designated number does not fit into the LC shelflist), IJ Section staff can always add an additional 053 _0 field. If the PCC-Library designated number DOES fit the shelflist, we change the second indicator 4 to an 0.

I hope this helps.

My very best to all in the new year,
Aaron

Hi all,

A quick question on what the Israel  team is doing with literary call numbers. I just came across a NAR for a poet that lacked a literary call nunber.

Have you stopped shelf-listing?

Should PCC members add them as they would when creating their own NARs?

Thank you, Heidi
