Addcats
Summary: This procedure explains how to indicate that a new MSU item is already held by the Library of Michigan or MSU Law Library, and therefore can be added to an existing bibliographic record.
Add external note ADDCAT? to order record, when attaching to a Library of Michigan or MSU Law Library bibliographic record
Receiving staff will route item to appropriate cataloging workflow
Bib records brought in by the Law Library or LoM are "owned" by them and should not be altered or overlaid.
Items new to MSUL sometimes need to be added to an existing Law or LoM record, instead of cataloged normally.
Addcats are always identified by Acquisitions staff; this makes sure they are directed to the right cataloging workflow.
