Addenda may be processed separately as its own collection (e.g., Woman's National Farm and Garden Association (MC 594); Hildegard Peplau; Betty Friedan, Rutland Corner House) or combined with a previously-processed collection.

Treatment of addenda should be decided on a case-by-case basis in consultation with your team lead.  One of the issues to take into consideration is whether the photographs in the original container list have been cataloged (using the accession number) and would therefore have to be renumbered.  Another consideration (Public Services should be consulted) is where the addenda is shelved vis a vis the original part of the collection.  Examples below are a few of the possibilities.

 

New "additional" collection | Integrated into existing MC# | Combined with existing container lists to create new MC# | Integrated into "old" MC # (with only folder numbers in old finding aid, not box and folder numbers)
