Janet sent me an email offlist explaining how you migrated from vols in your call number to monographic parts.

I thought that how the vol was designated in the call number didn't mater to the monographic parts? Elaine _____ J.

With this development, access to this would still be controlled by a permission so each implementation would decide who has permissions to make changes on this.

We haven't implemented Monographic parts because of the need to retrospectively change volumes so I may not be interpreting the functionality that exists correctly. I have always thought that creating monograph parts should be done at the consortia rather than the individual library level. In order for it to work, all consortia members should use the same part label (retaining their own volume designation within their call number). Have you considering, rather than Pt 2 merging labels changing it to making managing parts permissions at the consortium level rather than the local level? That would solve the duplicate label issue and move the management further up the hierarchical structure. This would essentially control the part label vocabulary. As a corollary, though not part of your request, to me creating call number prefixes and suffixes should be at the library system level and not at the consortium level. At least in PINES, call numbers are the responsibility of the local library. Elaine _____ J.
