Records for series & standing orders Sunee Grima 28 Jan 1999 03:30 UTC

Hi,

I wonder what other libraries do in terms of keeping track of standing
order titles. Our library creates a short bibliographic record under the
series name, such as Advances in chemistry series.  We then check in each
issue that comes in in this record. If we have to catalog it separately,
we then use OCLC record for each issue. I wonder if there might be a
better way to keep track of them using Acquisitions in HORIZONS. Perhaps,
other libraries that do not use HORIZONS, have a better way at keeping
track of the standing order titles.  Will you please share your expertise?

Thanks.
