LP Filing
Basic Filing Rules:
- All commercial recordings are filed by the manufacturer’s name and label number.
- Numerals are filed as if spelled out.
- CP2 = CP squared
- 1750 Art St. = Seventeen fifty Art St.
- Symbols are filed as if spelled out.
- Sound & Sight = Sound and Sight
- A&M = A and M
- Abbreviations and acronyms are filed as if they are words. Do not convert to the full name
- IRCC =IRCC NOT International Record Collectors Club
- UNESCO = UNESCO NOT United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation
- Short words are filed before longer words.
- “Record Institute” comes before “Recording Company of Argentina"
An authority list will be maintained with the following purposes:
- To help the shelver and cataloger determine under which recording label name a recording should be filled if there are multiple names present on the item or it is otherwise unclear.
- To indicate whether or not prefixes and/or suffixes present in the label number should be included or ignored in filling recordings on the shelve.
- Ignore prefix numbers for ABC so that mono. and stereo. will interfile. e.g. (ABC-645, ABCS-665, ABCS-670, ABC-671).
- To indicate when certain recordings should be filled under a different name other than the one on the item, in the interest of physical collocating the output of certain subsidiaries with their parent companies. e.g. Bluesway files under ABC-Bluesway NOT under Bluesway
