Cataloging statistics guidelines
Accompanying materials vs. "MulVer" titles
- Where a title is published with accompanying materials, count the title and volume(s) of the principle
format under that format and volumes only under the format of the accompanying information. For example,
a book with 23 accompanying microfiche sheets would count as "1 book title, 1 book volume" and "23 microfiche
pieces"; a computer manual with accompanying CD-ROM would be counted as "1 book title, 1 book volume" and
"1 computer file volume"
- In cases where a title is published separately in multiple formats and these are
given holdings, 530, 856, etc. on a single "mulver" record, count the titles and volumes
in each format under the respective formats. For example, a serial which we subscribe
to in paper, CD-ROM, and Web versions would be counted as "1 serial title", "1 computer file
title", and "1 Internet title"; the volumes would be counted as "n serial volumes" and "n
computer file volumes"; do not count any volumes for Internet resources as we are not looking
to see when each issue is put up on the Website.
Branches and Working Collections
- Where multiple copies of a document are ordered, to be split among more than one branch
or working collection, count the titles and volumes under each branch even though they share a single
bib record. We need this information for an accurate count of how many titles and volumes are
unique within a single collection or library.
- Count Working Collection titles/volumes as though they were from a single branch. Do not distinguish
between different departmental collections.
Materials which do not fit any categories on the statistics entry form
- If you catalog materials which do not fit any of the categories listed on the statistics
recording form (posters, equipment, etc.), report these via an email to the Dept. Head.
- Copies destined for branch or working collection locations should be counted as books
under the proper location.
NC State theses & dissertations
- ETDs are counted as titles only, without a volume count.
- NCSU theses/dissertations destined for D.H. Hill locations, including Special Collections, should be
counted under Theses as a title/volume and Special Collections as a volume (eg. 2 copies
of a thesis get one title count under Theses and one volume count under each of Theses
and Special Collections.
- Copies destined for branch or working collection locations should be counted as book
titles and volumes under the proper location. Where there is accompanying material, this
should be counted as a volume under the appropriate category.
