Catalogers have always provided the authorized headings and cross-references to materials we handle in-house and will continue to do so.

As a result you may have noticed some differences in the way holdings display in Chinook.For example:1-2,5- 1998-now displays as:v.1 (1998)- v.2 (1999),v.5 (2002)-In Millennium this displays as:y 853 3 3 |81|av.|i(http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/cucataloging/~3/5nK8XML_tbE/new-serials-holdings-statements.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Cataloging and Metadata Services)http://cucataloging.blogspot.com/2008/03/new-serials-holdings-statements.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1488945827769784415.post-1491117323268279430Mon, 24 Sep 2007 17:20:00 +00002007-09-24T12:19:48.679-06:00You will now notice that many Chinook records have embedded Table of Contents, containing chapter/article titles and author names, if any. The author names are hyperlinked so that you can navigate from the article author to other works that author may have written. You can also search the chapter titles and chapter authors when known. This may be particularly helpful when you have the citations http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/cucataloging/~3/1GrAwNI24ho/tables-of-contents.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Cataloging and Metadata Services)http://cucataloging.blogspot.com/2007/09/tables-of-contents.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1488945827769784415.post-1654508221918950077Thu, 30 Aug 2007 16:05:00 +00002007-08-30T11:02:42.383-06:00Cataloging & Metadata Services has batch-loaded over 12,690 MARC records for monographs since January, 2007.
