 ====== Routing Notes for New Books ====== ====== Routing Notes for New Books ======
  
 +Routing Notes are placed in the Library Note field of an item's order record (usually by Rebecca), and are transfered to a routing slip inserted into the book by the person who receives the item (Susan, for the majority of monographic items.)
  
 +**Cat to Ref** : This order will be given the code of "​URF"​ in the "​Collection"​ field in its item record.
  
-In order to standardize notes placed ​on book requests and eliminate ​the need for interpretation,​ we propose the following :+**Show Ref** - This order will be put on the Ref Consideration shelves after receipt.
  
-**Cat to Ref** This order will be placed with a location code of uaur and on receipt ​will be sent directly ​to Information Processing or Original Cataloging.+**Cat to Ref latest vol.** This item will be cat to Ref. The earlier edition already in Reference ​will be sent to the stacks.
  
-**Show Ref** - This order will have a location code of uaaa and on receipt will be put on the Ref Consideration shelves.+**De-Ref earlier vol.** - This note is not necessary ​and is covered under “Ref latest vol.
  
-**Cat to Ref latest vol.** - This order will have a location code of uaur and on receipt will be cat to Ref. The earlier edition already in Reference will be sent to the stacks. +**Notify** - NOTE: Notify notes are no longer placed on slips, only in the "​Library Note" field of the order record, except in cases where there are multiple "​Notify"​ or "​Hold"​ requests for the same item. This note is put on orders when selectors feel a Professor or other patron might want to be notified about the receipt of a book in their subject area.  When the item is received, notice is sent to the patron via email, at which point they can put a hold on the item if they so chooseWhen recording this note, please use the patron'​s complete name and e-mail address.

-**De-Ref earlier vol.** - This note is not necessary ​and is covered under “Ref latest vol.+
  
-**Notify** - This note is put on orders when selectors feel a Professor might want to be notified about the receipt of a book in his subject area. Books with this note are given no special processing and without DLC copy could end up in the backlog ​for a couple of weeks after receipt. When using this note please ​use complete ​address or phone number ​and not just a name. The Professor gets notification that the book has been added to the collection.+**Hold for** - This note is used for professors, staff, and students who have requested an item.  These materials receive rush treatment. When using this noteplease ​give the patron'​s ​complete ​name and e-mail address. ​ If class name and semester is indicated in the order record for a book that is to be on reserve for a class, transfer that information ​to the routing slip as well.
  
-**Inform** - This note is used for library staff only when they want to read a book after it has been cataloged. The book is sent to Circulation and the staff member will be sent a notification slip. [//this is obsolete, I believe, and staff who want to read a book, for any reason, just put *Hold For*, as indicated below, if I'm not mistaken--SP]//​ 
  
-**Hold for** - This note is used for students and professors and for staff //[if books are needed for research ​or a class--delete?​--SP].//​ On receipt this book is rush processed and a notification slip will be sent. When using this noteplease give complete address ​or phone number and not just name.+If in doubt about the relevence of information provided in an order record'​s Library Note field, consult Susan or Rebecca, or simply transfer the information to routing slip exactly as it's found in the order record'​s Library Note field.
  
-**Show ?? on arrival** - ALL of these books will be put on the “Show CollDev.” shelf above the Ref Consideration shelves in the Approval Room except for Special Collections who will be called when theirs arrive. Please cross your name off the routing slip after you have seen the book.+//​[[sep@library.umass.edu|Primary contact: Susan Pease]]//
  
-**__Monographs to be located temporarily in Phys Sci Reserve__** ​ 
  
  
-[Phys Sci Library occasionally orders titles that, due to their subject matter, might receive heavy usage. In order to make them more available to a larger number of patrons, they temporarily house them in their Perm Reserve area. These items, when ordered, will have a location of “uap” (Cat to Phys Sci) but will carry either of the following internal notes: 
  
-**Cat to Phys Sci; Hold for Phys Sci Perm Reserve** - For items they know are needed rather quickly and which we should treat as rushes. 
  
-**Cat to Phys Sci; Notify Phys Sci Perm Reserve** - For items they think might get heavy usage which we should treat as regular orders.[//​do we still do any of this?  I don't think I've ever seen any of it. SP//]
