5.2. Kits
The Office of Commonwealth Libraries often distribute kits, such as STEM kits, to Pennsylvania Libraries.
There may need to be a couple of variations of the catalog record:
- Some locations barcode and scan each part of a kit
- Others keep the kit together and only have one barcode for the kit with its contents list.
- Some may want to use the Booking Module because many of these kits need to be reserved for use by libraries.
While it was discussed in the June 2019 meeting of the Cataloging Committee, no final decision was made on how to best handle kits.
When you receive a kit, please check the SPARK catalog to see if there is already a record for the kit and catalog appropriately.
If there is no record, please send an email to Cataloging listserv, and the community can work together to ensure a correct record into the catalog.
