Trisha,
Sorry I haven't responded sooner. Call numbers in standard fields (050, 082, etc), with some caveats, are indexed by default as keyword searches. I don't know for sure that an 099 or 090, for example, would be indexed. 082s with a 2nd indicator of 4 are not indexed as keyword searches and 050 2nd indicator 4 are probably also not keyword indexed (we're Dewey so I haven't confirmed how LCC functions in Evergreen). But you might be able index them for your setup. There is also the call number browse in the quick search - if is the only one of the quick searches that can be filtered by owning library. Elaine J.

My other question is how does Evergreen handle indexing of the call number assigned - the ultimate question being how easily are those records found by patrons when they search. Does Evergreen index the call numbers so a keyword search can be done? Thanks!!

However, we do our original cataloging on OCLC and bring the record into PINES. We don't catalog directly into PINES unless the item is ephemeral in nature and won't be retained. The Type would be r : "Three-dimensional artifact or naturally occurring object. Models, dioramas, games, puzzles, simulations, sculptures and other three-dimensional art works, exhibits, machines, clothing, toys, and stitchery." See http://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/fixedfield/type.shtm and http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bdleader.html Call numbers are up to individual libraries in PINES and are dependent on the needs of their patrons and the library staff. So we see a wide variation in how equipment and realia are classified. Some use AV, some are specific - 16MM projector, some are just EQUIPMENT. Elaine J.

If so, would you share what you are using for a fixed field 'type'? We are interested in putting these records in the first time ( ;D) in such a way that our patrons will have a filter or an easy way to locate all the AV equipment in the catalog. How will they be able to search just for AV? By call number, call number prefix.
