Hi all, I'm processing this title below, which has a call number assigned to it in OCLC, but I think it's an incorrect call number corresponding to an incorrect heading.
The call number right now is DS119.771, corresponding to the heading "Israel-Hamas War, 2023-" However, the book is not about this particular conflict but about the Israel/Palestine conflict more broadly. The majority of the book is actually about locations other than Israel/Palestine, though the goal of the book is to use Ireland, Cyprus, and South Africa as examples for I/P. So it could be argued that the book should be in DS rather than, for example, GN496 (Anthropology—Ethnology. Social and cultural anthropology—Cultural traits, customs, and institutions—Societal groups. Ethnic groups—Intergroup relations. Diplomacy—General works) - [that's just a quick example, I didn't dig too deep into it yet]. A better DS number for this could be DS119.76, more generally about "Arab-Israeli conflict" without pinpointing it to October 7 (the book does mention that its topic is important "especially after October 7," which many books now are doing but still don't belong in DS119.771).
