Info

A special collection of play scripts donated to the library by the USU Eastern Price Theatre Department. These are usually cataloged remotely from a list or spreadsheet.

...

Review and Select a Record

  1. Search Sierra by title to locate any existing records.

a. Check record carefully to make sure it’s a match--particularly the publisher, date, and edition. Older play scripts have typically have been issued in numerous editions.

b.

Note that USU Eastern and USU Blanding holdings need their own Sierra record, separate from any other location’s record. Holdings for Price and Blanding, however, are put on the same Sierra record.

c. If item is physically in hand, proceed to the Physical Processing instructions below. If working from a list, let the USU Eastern Library know when the list is finished and the books are ready to go.

d. If no record is found, repeat title search with various abbreviations to ensure thorough search, then proceed to step 2.

b. Author of document

c. ISBN or LCCN

d. Publisher (in combination with other search terms)

3. Check that the following fields match the item in hand:

Physical Processing

Theatre Department scripts are typically cataloged from a list or spreadsheet. If the book is in hand, follow these procedures for processing:

Barcoding:

For documents with a cover, place on the first page, on the right leaf, when possible. Never cover up any important or identifying information.  Always try to find a blank area for the barcode.  If necessary, change it to a vertical orientation. On smaller documents, or documents that do not have a cover or where the actual content starts on the top page of the item, this top page may be the best place for the barcode.  

Label:

Print and place a label on the item. Using one of the following label templates, according to the item you are labeling:

  • INDICATE THE LABEL TEMPLATE RECOMMENDED FOR THIS PROCESS

HEADER1ST LINE                    

HEADER 2ND LINE                

CALL# Line1

CALL# Line2

CALL# Line3

CALL# Line4

Notes: INCLUDE ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES ABOUT THE CONSTRUCTION OF LABEL

Dust jackets, if present, should be left on the book.  Similar to the barcode, do not cover information that is needed for identification of the item. Preferred location for the label is on the lower spine of larger bound items or the lower left corner of the cover on smaller individual items. CHANGE ABOVE OR ADD ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON WHERE BARCODE SHOULD BE PLACED AND OTHER INSTRUCTIONS, AS NEEDED.
