Detailed View

 

You can view information about an title in one of three formats. These formats are the Detailed View  , the Brief View , and the Staff View  .


  • The Detailed View contains the full bibliographic record containing information describing the title, its format, the publisher, place of publication, physical description, author, title, subject headings and holdings information.

  • The Brief View is the default view in the catalog and contains, author, title, publisher, description, subject headings and holdings information.

  • The Staff View contains the cataloging/MARC coding information for the title.




  • Holdings information consists of the Location, Call Number, Status, Library Holdings (labeled Library has)  and Total Copies or Volumes fields.

    Location: BSU Albertsons Library
    Call Number: QL737.C22 W632
    Status: Not Checked Out
    Library has: Bound volumes: v.12/14(1994/1996)-v.15/17(1997/1999),v.18/20(2000/2002:Incomplete)
    Total Copies or Volumes: 3

            [Title: Wolf!]

    NOTE: There may be more than one holdings statement for each title entry.

    The Location field states which library owns the item and which collection within the library houses the title.

    The Call Number field lists the call number under which the item is shelved in the collection.

    The Status field states whether or not the item is checked out, or whether the item is unavailable (not yet ordered, in processing, in mending, lost, etc.)

    The Library Holdings field (labeled Library has) gives a list of years, copies or editions held by the library.

    The Total Copies or Volumes field lists the number of bound volumes there are for each title. This can be misleading, particularly with periodicals since the library often binds several volumes of a periodical title into one bound volume.


    If there is more than one record associated with the title you selected, you can view the remaining records by clicking the Previous or Next icons.
