Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 6/69 Since there are so many kinds of shelving covered in this lesson, please take your time and read each section carefully It may be difficult to absorb all of the details completely after a single reading Consider returning to sections of this lesson periodically if you need to refresh your knowledge and memory of how to shelve particularly kinds of items You only need to report on your learning experience once, via the online response form Please also note that we are in the process of relocating all books to the ground floor, so be aware that different sections of books are moving around

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 7/69 Shelving Music Compact Discs We have many Music Compact Discs at Evansdale library, since music is one of our specialized areas

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 8/69 Shelving Music Compact Discs (2/7) They are shelved in the gray cabinets behind the Service Desk

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 9/69 Shelving Music Compact Discs (3/7) These CD’s do not have LC call numbers like the books They are arranged in numerical order On the CD case there will be an MUCD number “MUCD” stands for “Music Compact Disk”

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 10/69 Shelving Music Compact Discs (4/7) There are many drawers that contain Music CD’s Each drawer is labeled, indicating the beginning and ending item range of MUCD contents As an example, our task is to shelve MUCD 2356 Our CD will go in this drawer

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 11/69 Shelving Music Compact Discs (5/7) Open the CD drawer that has the number you need If the drawer won’t open, make sure all the other drawers in that cabinet are closed tightly, before trying again The cabinets have a safety feature that prevents more than one drawer from being opened at a time (to prevent the cabinet from tipping over)

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 12/69 Shelving Music Compact Discs (6/7) Now just flip through the CD’s to locate the CD that comes before or after the CD to be shelved

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 13/69 Shelving Music Compact Discs (7/7) Now place that CD in its correct spot 2356 comes before 2357, so this CD goes here Close the drawer and continue shelving any other MUCDs

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 14/69 Shelving Music Cassettes There are also music audio cassette tapes behind the Service Desk They are located in the top drawer of the MUCD cabinets closest to, and facing, Reference Services

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A.

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 16/69 Shelving non-Music CDs, DVDs Also stored behind the Service Desk are data CD- ROMs (and some floppy diskettes) that contain software programs and information to accompany certain books These are shelved in the last three drawers of the last CD cabinet A few instructional DVDs are stored in the drawer directly above them

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 17/69 Shelving non-Music CDs, DVDs (2/3) When a patron returns a book that has software you will notice that the CD and the book have the same call number All of the items in the Non- Music CD’s are arranged this way, by their parent book’s LC call number

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 18/69 Shelving non-Music CDs, DVDs (3/3) Simply go to the proper drawer and place the CD in its correct call number order among the other items in the drawer

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 19/69 Shelving Current Periodicals The library has subscriptions to hundreds of scholarly periodicals that arrive regularly Generally, these journals are stored in the “Current Periodicals” section until enough issues arrive to constitute a volume, which is then sent off to be bound into a hardcover volume by the Serials Department The Current Periodicals section consists of ranges on the main floor near the back, for easy access by researchers

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 20/69 Shelving Current Periodicals (2/10) Donna Sands from Database Management collects usage data on our current periodicals When current periodical issues are returned or retrieved, they are placed on designated shelves of the main floor temp cart

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 21/69 Shelving Current Periodicals (3/10) After these periodicals have been processed, they will be placed on a cart Count the items as usual and take them to the Current Periodicals ranges on the main floor

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 22/69 Shelving Current Periodicals (4/10) Current periodicals have not yet been assigned a call number or item barcode (per issue) These items are placed on the shelves in alpha order by title For example, this issue of the Journal of Animal Ecology will be shelved in the “J” section Placement is made by alphabetizing the whole title, including the word “Journal” Disregard “the” in a title

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 23/69 Shelving Current Periodicals (5/10) Items on a shelf by title are then organized by volume and issue number In this example, we are dealing with Volume 73, Number 3 of the Journal of Animal Ecology

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 24/69 Shelving Current Periodicals (6/10) To shelve, first find the correct range marker in the Current Periodicals area The title Journal of Animal Ecology will fall within the alphabetical parameters of this particular section

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 25/69 Shelving Current Periodicals (7/10) Then look for the individual shelf label for each specific journal

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 26/69 Shelving Current Periodicals (8/10) The most recent issue of a journal will go on the slant shelf, facing outward Earlier issues will go in blue boxes on the bottom shelves

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 27/69 Shelving Current Periodicals (9/10) Now look at the back issues Our issue is Volume 73 Number 3 May 2004 In this example, this is the most current issue The most current back issue is Volume 73 Number 2 March 2004

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 28/69 Shelving Current Periodicals (10/10) Our exemplary issue is the most current one Therefore, it is shelved on the main shelf

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 29/69 Shelving Reference items Evansdale Library, like all the libraries, has a reference section of resource items that are for in-library use only They do not circulate, and consist of specialized encyclopedias, dictionaries, and other materials that should be always available The Reference Shelves are near the back of the floor

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 30/69 Shelving Reference items (2/4) These books are shelved in LC call number order, just like in the stacks The only exception is that they have an “REF” or “R” prefix before the call number, which indicates that these items belong to the Reference Collection As an example, we will shelve this item with a call number of R BF76.7.G

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 31/69 Shelving Reference items (3/4) Find the range marker that indicates where your book should go Since our call number was R BF 76.6.G , it should be shelved within this range

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 32/69 Shelving Reference items (4/4) Now browse through the range until you find where your book should go, and place it there flush with the shelf edge R BF 76.7 G comes before REF BF76.7.P “EVAN” just indicates that it belongs to Evansdale; it is not an important part of the call number

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 33/69 Shelving Play Scripts There is a large play script collection at Evansdale Library The plays are stored in alphabetically labeled boxes on shelves in two adjacent bookcases In the back of the main floor, the play script shelves separate the Snack Room area from the copier-scanner area

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 35/69 Shelving Playscripts (3/6) The scripts are not shelved by LC call number or by numerical order either Plays at Evansdale are shelved by the author’s last name As an example, we will use “The Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens Thus, the call number is “DICKENS,” preceded by the prefix “EVAN PLAYS”

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 36/69 Shelving Playscripts (4/6) There are separate boxes for each letter These contain plays by authors who’s last name begins with the letter on the box Within these boxes, the authors are subdivided alphabetically, first by author, then by the first word in each title by that author Thus, “Abbey” will precede “Aftergood”

Revised WE :06 EST Created TU Lesson 08b. Shelving, Continued / Bringing Learners and Library Skills Together Copyright © by A. David Roth | Evansdale Library, West Virginia University 37/69 Shelving Playscripts (5/6) Plays by Dickens will therefore be found in a ‘D’ box
