-===== **MONOGRAPHIC CONTINUATIONS** === 
- 
-Continuations are published ​ in multiple volumes but with a foreseeable/​planned end, i.e. a 20-vol encyclopedia. ​ Sometimes all volumes are available at once, in which case we would order the set as a multi-vole monograph and this would not be treated as a continuation. 
-If, however, the volumes were published one at a time, we would set up a Contin order so we can receive each volume as it arrives, i.e. Complete Works of John Milton. 
- 
-{Types of Monographic Continuations include Contin A/Vs, Contin Anals, and Contin Cat Seps. Each type is defined in the Glossary. ​ To summarize, Contin A/Vs consist of multiple numbered volumes with all volumes cataloged exclusively on a single bibliographic record, and thus all also have the same call number. ​ Each volume of a Contin Anal has (or, will have, if it has not yet been cataloged) its own bibliographic record, in addition to being associated with a cover record that encompasses the entire monographic series. ​ All volumes within a Contin Anal series have the same basic call number. ​ For a Contin Cat Sep series, each volume has both its own title and bibliographic record AND its own call number. (Note: Contin A/Vs are sometimes found *within* either Contin Anals or Contin Cat Seps.) //partial draft of my additions to this section--SPease//​} 
- 
-When **creating order** record for a contin, use material type CN.  Add library note for receiver stating how many volumes are expected or which ones in particular if not ordering all. 
- 
-Use “Standing order” budget for these. 
- 
-Tab 3.  Add a vendor note specifying that you want a standing order and what volumes you need—either “Standing order for volume 1+” or “Standing order for volume 3,5+ all future” ​ (if we already own some of the set). 
- 
-Tab 4.  Number of units should reflect actual or estimated number of vols. expected. 
-List price should be total cost of entire set.  ​ 
- 
-As each vol. is paid for, Aleph will know when all the money has been expended. ​ As each volume is received Aleph will subtract from the total expected. 
- 
-When **arriving** each vol. be sure you include a note regarding which volume you have received each time or its title. ​ So that when you look at “arrival”,​ you will see exactly which vols. have come in. 
- 
-{It is not always obvious when receiving a volume which type of continuation is being received, or even whether it is a volume in a continuation or stand-alone volume that is held.  Sometimes, but not always, the order record contains a note saying that this is e.g. a Contin Cat Sep.  To be sure about an item's status as a Contin, you can go to Overview>​Series Tab>​Subscription List, where there should be such a label. ​ There may be additional notes and instructions here.  In any event, each volume of a Contin Anal or Contin Cat Sep must be accounted for in at least two places. ​ It needs to first be received on its cover record, with an Arrival note listing its individual title as well as its number, if it has a number. The Holdings Record must also be updated. The book must then be linked to an individual monographic record. ​ This may be done immediately after the item is received on its cover record, or it may be placed on the shelves labelled "​Contin Anal" or "​(Contin) Cat Sep," for a staff member to complete this process later. A Contin A/V needs only to be received on its single record, with a note in the Arrival record saying which volume has been arrived. ​ The receiver adds a routing slip to the book, witing down the ADM number and "​Contin A/V" plus the call number. ​ The Contin A/V volume is then put on a shelf for Kay Dion to process further. Additional areas to be discussed: Contin AVs within Contin Anals and Contin Cat Seps.  Contin AVs can *also* occur with serials, ie, within Ser Anals or Cat Sep serials //partial draft of this process--SPease//​} 
- 
-When **receiving invoices**—be sure “number of units” reflects how many vols you are receiving with each invoice entry as it defaults to the total. 
- 
-Uncheck “check subs. Date overlap”—we haven’t figured out how to permanently uncheck it so it needs to be done each time. 
- 
-Include note that specifies what vol you are paying for with each entry. ​ So that when you look at “invoice”,​ you will see exactly which vols. have been paid for.
