-===== Introduction ​=====+====== Serials Workflow: Holdings Statement Construction ======
  
-==== Updated holdings format ​====+===== Introduction to MARC 866 =====
  
-In Aleph, the holdings statement for serials ​and periodicals ​is recorded in the 866 field. ​ ​Previously,​ UMass holdings statements ​did not include enumeration captions and used brackets to indicate incomplete volumes We are now trying to convert these holdings statements into a more standard format using enumeration captions ​and inserting incomplete gapswhich we believe will be easier ​for patrons to understand, and to conform to ANSI/NISO practice, which may be more easily transferred to/and understood by, other systems.+The holdings statement for serials is recorded in the 866 field. ​All holdings statements ​require indicators 41 in the 866 fieldFor information on this field and indicator definitionsplease see the Library of Congress MARC documentation ​for textual holdings at [[https://www.loc.gov/​marc/​holdings/​hd866868.html]].
  
-==== 866 indicators ​====+===== Enumeration =====
  
-All holdings statements with updated formats should include ​the indicators 41 in the 866 field The first indicator "​4"​ indicates Holdings Level 4, which includes ​2nd level enumeration ​details The second indicator "​1"​ specifies that the holdings statement ​is ANSI Z39.44 or ANSI/NISO Z39.57.+Do not capitalize enumeration abbreviations. Add year when present on the piece (not necessarily ​the publication date). The full form of the year is usedentered in parentheses. For combined years, both years are entered with a slash between. For a publication ​which uses both numbers and months as 2nd-level enumeration, numbers are preferred, unless the serial uses only months in their numberingEnter the month as it is shown on the pieceException: For Depository materials, use June, July, and Sept per Five College Policy agreement.
  
-===== Caption designations =====+NOTE: For **non-English language** serials, always use the abbreviations for the foreign term that is on the piece, such as tome, band or fascicle. ​
  
-==== Enumeration ====+Enumerations used in holdings statements include, but may not be limited to:
  
-NOTE: For **foreign** serials and periodicals,​ UMass practice is to use “v.” and “no.” for designations such as tome and fascicle, though for monographs, we use the abbreviations for the foreign terms.  ​Otherwise, we try to follow the enumeration and chronology designations present on the piece+  ​* v. (volume) 
 +  * no. (number) 
 +  * pt. (part) 
 +  * fasc. (fascicle
 +  * t(tome) 
 +  * bd(band)
  
-Enumerations used in holdings ​statements ​include:+Example simple enumeration ​statements:
  
-  * v. (for volume) +  * 866 41 $a v.3:​no.1 ​(1980), v.3:no.(1980)-v.10 (1987
-  * no. (for number+  * 866 41 $a bd.243-bd.250 
-  * pt(for part) +  * 866 41 $a v.1:pt.3 (2015)-v.4:​pt.4 ​(2019
-  * --st, --nd, --th (for ordinal numbers+  * 866 41 $a v.3:Feb (2001)-v.3:Dec (2001)
-  * ed. (for edition)+
  
-When 2nd level enumeration must be entered, for example, to indicate a gap, a colon is used:+===== Series =====
  
-  * v.3:no.1 (1980), v.3:no.3 (1980)-v.10 (1987)+The series designation will precede the volumes included in that series.
  
-==== Series ====+  * new ser. (new series) 
 +  * ser.2 (series 2 (etc.))
  
-The series ​designation,​ followed by colon, will precede the volumes included in that series.  It need only be entered once before the volumes it pertains to, even when gaps are present.+There may be multiple ​series ​designations in one title. An enumeration statement with a series ​designation looks like this:
  
-  * new ser. (for new series) +  * 866 41 $a ser.4:v.1 (1958)-ser.4:v.5 (1962
-  * ser.(for series 2 (etc.)+  * 866 41 $a v.12 (1959)-ser2:v.3 (1982)
-  * ser.4:v.(1958)-v.3 (1960), v.5 (1962)+
  
-The preferred practice is **not** to capitalize the first letter of enumeration captions, and **not** to include ​space after the period.+===== Constructing ​holdings statement =====
  
-  * v.1 (not V.1); no.1 (not No.1); pt.1 (not Pt.1) +Holdings statements should ALWAYS REFLECT WHAT THE LIBRARY OWNSWe do not indicate what we do not yet own, and we do not denote that the library cancelled a title in the holdings statementThe 866 field denotes only what the library currently ownsIf a title has ceased publication,​ this is denoted in the bib recordGo into OCLC and export the current bib record to reflect thisSee instructions for [[serials_workflow_ceased_cancelled_titles|Ceased & Cancelled Titles]].
-  * new ser.:v.1 (not New Ser:V.1); ser.2:v.1 (not Ser.2:V.1)+
  
-==== Chronology: years ==== +  * 866 41 $a 2001/​2002-2003/​2004 
- +  * 866 41 $a v.13 (1996)-v.20:​no.6 (2003)
-Add year when present on the piece as a cover date, versus publication date.  The full form of the year is used, entered in parentheses. ​ For combined years, both years are entered with a slash. +
- +
-  * v.6 (1997) +
-  * v.11 (1944/​1945)-v.18 (1950/​1951) +
- +
-==== Chronology: months ==== +
- +
-For a publication which uses both numbers and months as 2nd-level enumeration,​ numbers are preferred. ​ However, some periodicals use only months. ​ Although we enter months more frequently in our item descriptions,​ sometimes we need to add them into a holdings statement, for example in the following cases: +
- +
-   * When volume is incomplete: v.68 (1976:Jan), v.68 (1976:​Mar)-v.78 (1986) +
-   * When a title change occurs in the middle of a volume: +
-     - v.36 (1990)-v.39 (1993:Feb) (earlier title) +
-     - v.39 (1993:​Mar)-v.46 (2000)( later title) +
- +
-UMass enters months by their first three letters only.  Exception: ​ For Depository materials, use June, July, and Sept, per Five College Policy agreement. +
- +
-===== Last volume in statement ===== +
- +
-==== Titles currently received ==== +
- +
-End the string with a dash, indicating that more are coming. +
- +
-  * 2001/​2002-2003/​2004- +
-  * v.13 (1996)-v.20:​no.6 (2003)+
- +
-==== Titles not currently received ==== +
- +
-When we do **not** hold the last volume of a publication,​ for example when the library cancels a title which is still being published as far as we know, we remove the dash and add nothing after the holding string. +
- +
-  * 1st ed. (1979)-6th ed. (1985) +
- +
-When we **do** hold the last volume of a publication,​ either in the case of a title change or a cessation, we add a double slash after the holding string. ​ (NOTE: WIKI will not support illustration of double slash) This is a local UMass practice not standard in ANSI/NISO notation.+

   - Holdings statements indicating gaps should be entered on one line only.

-  - There is no need to add any more than the first and last number around a gap.  For the first example above, v.26 (1992)-v.29:​no.1-6 (1995), v.29:​no.8-12 (1995)-v.33 (1999) would be incorrect.+  - There is no need to add any more than the first and last number around a gap.  For the first example above, v.26 (1992)-v.29:​no.1-6 (1995), v.29:​no.8-12 (1995)-v.33 (1999) would be incorrect. ​ ​CORRECT FORM:  v.26 (1992)-v.29:​no.6 (1995), v.29:no.8 (1995)-v.33 (1999)
   - Frequency considerations. In this example, we know that the periodical is a monthly. ​ If it had a greater frequency or was irregular (frequency unknown), the holdings would be expressed as v.26 (1992)-v.29:​no.6 (1995), v.29:​no.8-12 (1995), v.30 (1996)-v.33 (1999)   - Frequency considerations.

   - Where there is a combined year, we repeat the combination after every number in the incomplete statement, even though it may be more literally accurate not to do this: v.3:no.1 (1941/​1942),​ v.3:no.3-6 (1941/​1942),​ versus v.3:no.1 (1941), v.3:no.3-6 (1942). ​ Following the latter procedure would entail too much labor-intensive checking of individual volumes.   - Where there is a combined year, we repeat the combination after every number in the incomplete statement, even though it may be more literally accurate not to do this: v.3:no.1 (1941/​1942),​ v.3:no.3-6 (1941/​1942),​ versus v.3:no.1 (1941), v.3:no.3-6 (1942). ​ Following the latter procedure would entail too much labor-intensive checking of individual volumes.
-  - UMass policy is to allow a combination of 2nd level enumeration (without repeating the captions) as long as no gap exists within the combination: ​ 1990:​no.4-7,​ 1990:​no.10-1995 ​versus ​1990:​no.4-1990:​no.7,​ 1990:​no.10-1995+  - UMass policy is to allow a combination of 2nd level enumeration (without repeating the captions) as long as no gap exists within the combination.  **Example:**  ​1990:​no.4-1990:no.7, 1990:​no.10-1995 ​//can be written as:// 1990:no.4-7, 1990:​no.10-1995. ​  
 +    - Exception: ​ More than one gap exists in a volume'​s 2nd level enumeration,​ but not if adjoining the preceding or following volume in the statement. ​ **Example:​** ​ 1990:​no.4-5, ​1990:no.7-8, 1990:​no.10-1995 ​//can be written as// 1990:​no.4-5,​7-8,​1990:​no.10-1995. ​ Combining "4-5, 7-8" makes the statement easier to read. 
 +    - Do **not** combine 2nd level enumeration if adjoining preceding or following volume, as this can create ambiguity. ​ **Examples: ** 1990:​no.830-831,​ 832-1991 //better as:// 1990:​no.830-831,​ 1990:​no.832-1991;​ v.7:​no.6-7,​9 (1992)-v.11 (1993) //better as:// v.7:no.6-7 (1992), v.7:no.9 (1992)-v.11 (1993). ​ v.2 (1946)-v.3:​no.2,​4-5 (1947), v.6 (1950) //better as:// v.2 (1946)-v.3:​no.2 (1947), v.3:no.4-5 (1947), v.6 (1950)
