Re: Cancellation public display note Andrea Rabbia 03 Feb 2005 14:04 UTC

Mykie,

In addition to closing the holdings so that patrons can see what we
own, we do add a note stating "Law Library does not currently subscribe
to this title."

We are in a shared consortium of 3 libraries, so we state "Law Library"
so that patrons know that the cancellation applies to our library only.

Additionally, all of our alternate formats (electronic, microform) are
on separate MFHDs on the same bib (print) record, so the note does not
need to state the format.  Please let me know if you have any
questions.

Good luck,
Andrea

Hi,
I'm interested in hearing what phrases others use to let
patrons know that a title has been cancelled when they're
searching in the OPAC.  One example is "Cancelled for 2005."

Thanks,
Mykie
