Harvard Review

  • Go to Hollis Classic. Locate the journal by performing a title browse under the Journal tab.  Copy the Hollis number and pull it up in Aleph Cataloging Module.
  • Open the HOU GEN holdings first.  Update holdings to reflect the new copy for Houghton stacks.  Create a new item record by duplicating the previous issue and editing the description.
  • Create routing slip.  If you have a run, create only one slip.
    Example:  no prefix
                   AC9.H2618.992h2  no. 40[-41]^(2011)   (if call number is too long to type, write in the rest by hand)
                   no accession number/date filled in

                   Under additional Instructions:  Spine label and barcode only.  Please return to Bibliographic Assistant after pasting and counting.
  • Open the HOU HD holdings and update to reflect the new items.  This record should remain suppressed so the public will not be able to request archived copies.
  • Copies are sent to HD in CMI boxes. Each CMI box should contain the issues of one year, therefore there will be 8 items in each box.
  • Create an item record for CMI box.  Include the number range and year in the description.  Be sure item record is marked "88" (Suppressed).
  • Create a routing slip for the box and give items to End-Processing.
    Example:

  • After pulling up the Bib record in Aleph Cataloging ModuleAlma, start with the Houghton Reading Room holdings record.  Its designation is HOU RRF because of the previous folio size.
  • Add $$j if the year is incomplete, to indicate the season.  Drop the $$j as soon as the year is complete.
  • Create a routing slip and give to end-processing.
    Example: RR
                   f Z881.H3403 v.23:1/2 (Spring/Summer^2011)   (if call number is too long to type, write in the rest by hand)

  • Retain copies in one location until the year is complete.  There are 3 issues per year, but occasionally two of them are combined in one volume.
