Dual CD/DVD discs.

1. Dual discs have both a CD audio side and a DVD side all on a single two-sided disc.  If it's a Dual disc it is a given that there is both a CD and DVD on the disc, so the call number label only needs DualDisc not Music DualDisc or DualDisc/Music DC/VideoDVD.  Except if the content on both sides are the same format these are considered 1 disc not DualDisc, but there should be a 5xx field explaining that the disc has content on both sides.  DualDisc Example:  ROVI  819 C0415970 DualDisc. 
2. Update the 300 field:
   1. From: 2 audio discs (38 min., 55 sec.) :|bdigital ;|c4 3/4 in.
   2. TO:    1 audio disc (dual CD/DVD) :|bdigital ;|c4 3/4 in.
3. Holdings:
   1. If the record only has the dual disc on it, remove the "h" 866 altogether.
   2. If the record has more than one disc (multi vol.), adjust the "h" holdings (866) to reflect the dual disc as only one disc.
4. Leave item location code as is.  If the record is for an audio disc the location code will be rvcdr verses DVD rvdvd.
5. Remove the "m" supplement note from the item record.

1. Print out a copy of the bibliographic record.
2. Remove the advertisement from the packaging.

4. If the disc does not work:
   1. Check the item record for holds that need to be canceled. Ask ILL to cancel holds if there are any.

Rovi DVD Material needs review

• In their various Rovi DVD workflows, ROVI DVD materials pulled for projects that need a catalogers attention, CatMan and the Rovi Unit will identify existing records requiring review, will insert a staff note and return the DVD back to the Rovi cabinets to be pulled for a cataloger at a later date.
  

  Rovi DVDs need catalogers attention

  • The EXCEPTION: Daily MSU Patron/MelCat requests that need DVD record work are still rush processed even if they have the "Rovi DVD needs cataloging attention."

• Instead of sending DVD's with problems directly to the cataloger, CatMan & the ROVI Unit will enter a staff note in the item record with the following wording:

  • f Rovi DVD needs cataloging attention.

  • f Rovi DVD needs cataloging attention - Rovi Unit

• If the title includes multiple discs, insert the note into each item record.
• Create a temporary drawer/call number on a sticky note.
• Refile in the Rovi cabinet to await cataloger requests.
• Rovi DVDs that have no records in Sierra are to be held for a month and then given to Don.
