Technical Aspects of Reclassification Carol Love
2
Why Reclassify Your Collection? Library has “outgrown” the current classification Special collections need more specificity in shelving Library is joining a consortium that uses LC classification Request from library users or administrators for LC classification Desire to acclimate students to LC classification found in larger libraries
3
The Big Picture Library exports MARC records from local system MARCIVE finds LC classification –In library’s records, where possible (050, 090) –(Option) In LC database, where possible. Holdings in library’s records are updated with new call number Spine label sets are generated MARC records and labels are sent to library Library imports records and applies labels to books

Processing Specification Options Source of LC classification –Library’s own records –Library of Congress database Placement of new call number in record –MARC tag(s) Improvement of MARC records at the same time –Authorities processing, global changes –Enrichment (e.g., TOC, Accelerated Reader)
8
Options for New Labels Spine labels for reclassified items only Font size on spine label Spine label protectors Labels printed in old call number order or new LC class order Barcodes with new call number
9
How Are Costs Determined? Costs include reclassification setup, load fee, cost of labels, shipping Send sample records completed questionnaire to MARCIVE for evaluation Get quote based on sample and options chosen
10
While Project Is Underway Catalog using LC classification for new records Don’t modify or delete records that have been sent to MARCIVE Make plans for staffing and timeframe for applying labels and reshelving books
11
From a Librarian Who Reclassed It is better to load reclassified records into new system if migrating Map out the library for shifting books and applying labels Talk to another librarian who has been through the process
