MARC Fields/Youth Fiction
Books with accompanying materials.
If a book comes with CD, DVD, diskette, or other accompanying materials, determine if the material is
integral to the story in the book and if the book and accompanying material can be successfully circulated.
Discard material if it is only advertising or publisher’s catalog. If all accompanying materials are
discarded, remove all notes and physical description referring to the accompanying materials.
Example: 500 Book with CD. [Delete if items are not kept]
If materials are kept, also list in Circ note of item record:
1 BOOK, 1 CD
Fixed Fields
For all fixed fields follow OCLC MARC requirements while editing all records to conform to the item in
hand.
Variable fields
006 Additional Material Characteristics
Delete any 006 fields, if you delete the accompanying material.
007 Physical description fixed field
Delete any 007 fields, if you delete the accompanying material.
020 ISBN
Subfield a: Verify that the ISBN in the record matches the publisher and format. If the ISBN does
not match the ISBN on the on order record, verify which ISBN is correct for the title in
hand. Leave only the correct ISBN in record.
Subfield c: Add the correct price, when available.
If the price on the paper work is for a volume set, you need to determine the price for each volume. To
find the price for each volume, take the set price and divide this amount by the number of volumes in the
set. This will give you the price for each volume. This amount is entered on price subfield in the item
record when the volumes are inventoried.
Adding ISBN numbers for paperbacks to a bibliographic record
Add the ISBN for the paperback copy when linking them to the same record as the hardback copy. Put
(pbk.) after the ISBN number, and include the price in the subfield “c”.
JUVENILE FICTION MARC FIELDS/YOUTH FICTION
2 December 2, 2011
Paperbacks may be added to a record for the hardback, when the title, subtitle/other title information,
statement of responsibility, copyright date, edition and illustrator match exactly the title information as it
appears on the bibliographic record.
Remove any ISBN which is not on current copy in hand, since this may retrieve a different title and
generate duplicate reports.
Field does not end with a period.
049 Ownership and Location
If the record has KNJ or KNJA in this field, the item is owned by JCL and is a JCL record. If the record
has KOP or KOPA in this field it is an Olathe record, and JCL may or may not own copies. If it is an
Olathe record and JCL adds copies, you must update holdings in OCLC.
092 Local Call Number
In subfield ‡a use correct prefixes, followed by genre or Dewey designations.
Use only one 092 field in the record.
Use only one 092 field in the record. Delete all other 09X fields.
Subfield a: [PREFIX] [CLASS], author’s last name, author’s first name or initials and date of
publication, if necessary. Add month of inventory and the date for all circulating titles that are
copyrighted during the current year. Use the copyright date of the English translation for foreign titles.
When copyright dates appear for the following year, use month of inventory and current year until Dec.
31 of current year. For example: A book is published September 2010 and received for cataloging in
September 2010, but copyrighted 2011. The 092 fields and spine label will use 09/2010.
Example: J FICTION Brown Jeff 01/2007

entry with exceptions for individual biographies and some series.
For fiction (all genres), the author cutter is limited to the first 8 characters of the author’s surname and
first name taken from the authorized form in the 100 field. Do not include middle initials (unless initials
are the only form of a given name in the authority record) or dates of the author. Do not leave spaces
between the initials.

JUVENILE FICTION MARC FIELDS/YOUTH FICTION
5 December 2, 2011
When copyright dates appear for the following year, use month of inventory and current year until Dec.
31 of current year. For example: A book is published September 2010 and received for cataloging in
September 2010, but copyrighted 2011. The 092 fields and spine label will use 09/2010.
Annual serial publications generally use date of volume without month for spine date.
Example: Best American short stories
J FICTION Best 2006
Volume Numbering
For circulating and non circulating materials, this is generally only used on the spine labels when present
on the material and the decision is made to use the volume numbering for shelving purposes. Some
examples include encyclopedia sets or graphic novels that have the same title, are not part of a series,
have the same author, and have a volume number.
100/110/111/130 Author
For different editions of the same work, use the same main entry as the previous editions. If there is a
significant difference in the authorship of two editions, check with a cataloger or the authority records for
a determination.
Notify a cataloger if the name changes for a character, series, or if a name appears in more than one form
in the database.
Author writing as
If a title page has the phrase Author writing as Author 2nd
name, use the first name for the 100 entry.
Example: Jayne Ann Krentz writing as Jayne Castle
Krentz is the name to use in the 100 field. Castle is entered as an added author in the 700 field.
Recall other copies of the title already in the catalog to change to current name on that title.
FICTIONAL CONTINUING CHARACTERS WITH AUTHOR CHANGES
Use original author of the work as the main entry.
The 245 field should reflect what is on the title page
Trace the character in subject headings.
Add a 700 field for the author of book in hand.
Applies to juvenile fiction and not adult fiction
Posthumous publications of an author
If the deceased author is identified as the author of a work published posthumously, use the author in the
100 field and make 7XX added entries for any additional authors. If another author continues a series,
character, story line etc. begun by the deceased author, use the new author in the 100 field, if identified as
JUVENILE FICTION MARC FIELDS/YOUTH FICTION
6 December 2, 2011
the actual writer of the book. If the deceased author is noted on the book, make a 7XX added entry in the
record.
Books containing more than one title
For books containing more than one title verify which of the following circumstances apply to the book in
hand. Follow the procedures which apply to the title in hand.
Collective title/same author
The bib record will be an author main entry with the collective title in the 245 field. For up to
four titles list each title in a 740 title added entry. Do not use initial articles in the 740 field. The
first indicator is “0” for non filing characters, and the second indicator is “2”. If there are five or
more titles, up to fifty titles list them in an enhanced 505 contents note.

Foreign titles with initial articles are repeated in 246 fields one with and one without the initial article.
Delete all other subfields and ending punctuation.
Example in OCLC: 240 10 El general en su laberinto. ‡l English
245 14 The general in his labyrinth /|cGabriel García Márquez ; translated from the Spanish by Edith Grossman.
Example in Sirsi: 245 14 The general in his labyrinth /|cGabriel García Márquez ;

Delete the following: Works, Selection, Prose or other generic titles.
245 Title
The title, subtitle, other title information and statement of responsibility must match exactly the title
information as it appears on the title page or equivalent substitute.
The exception is when a series title or other head of title information is in the
245 field, subfield “a”. In this instance only the unique title is kept in the 245 subfield “a”. The
series/head of title information is moved to the 246 field and combined with the unique title.
When the series title or other head of title information is present there must also be a 490 field. You may
have more than one series entry per title. It is possible that not all series will have authority records.
Examples:

Title Page:
A star shines over
Mt. Morris Park
Henry Roth
In the above example there is not mention of the series on the title page. However on the cover the series
is “Mercy of a rude stream”. In this case you add a 246 with the series title and a 490 series entry to the
bibliographic record (include the volume number if available).
Example: 245 12 A star shines over Mt. Morris Park‡h[#1]
246 3 Mercy of a rude stream.‡nv.1, ‡pA star shines over Mt. Morris Park
490 1 Mercy of a rude stream ; ‡v v.1
800 1 Roth, Henry. ǂt Mercy of a rude stream ; ‡v v.1
“h” subfield in the 245 field
If the material has a series volume number, add a subfield “h” with the number in brackets. It is inserted
after the “a” subfield, and before the punctuation preceding the “b” or “c” subfields. When an “h”
subfield is necessary, it follows the “n” and “p” subfields. These subfields also precede the “b” and “c”
subfields.
Example: The penultimate peril|h[#12] /|cby Lemony Snicket ; illustrations by Brett Helquist.
490 1 Series of unfortunate events ;|vbk. 12
800 1 Snicket, Lemony.|tSeries of unfortunate events ;|vbk. 12
“n” subfield in the 245 field
The “n” subfield generally occurs in 245 field when the “a” subfield of the 245 is not unique and
the only difference is numbering which does not signify a part.
JUVENILE FICTION MARC FIELDS/YOUTH FICTION
9 December 2, 2011
When an “h” subfield is necessary, it follows the “n” subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield.
Since the numbering is in the “n” subfield, it is unnecessary to enter the numbering in the h
subfield.
For searching and formatting for the hit list, the contents of the “n” subfield should be
standardized for the titles within a run. The volume number in the subfield “n” is included in the
call number in the 092 field and is formatted according to the instructions in the Volume field
guidelines.
Example
245 10 Id _entity. ‡nVol.1
245 10 Id_entity. ‡nVol.2
245 10 Id_entity. ‡nVol.3
“p” subfield in the 245 field
One configuration is an ‘a’ subfield with a non-unique title and a unique subtitle in a p subfield
in the OCLC record. Graphic novel series and television series are some of the materials that
may have this configuration of title.
When an “h” subfield is necessary, it follows the “p” subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield.
Use the unique title of book in hand in title field for the 245 title for JCL catalog.
On title page: Reborn! 15 Blood of the Vongola II
In OCLC: Reborn! ǂn 15, ǂp Blood of the Vongola II
For JCL, edit 245:

246 3 Reborn! ǂn Vol.15, ǂp Blood of the Vongola II
246 Varying Format of Title
If any varying titles appear on the item, use a 246 and the appropriate indicators. Do not add varying
titles that repeat the exact wording of the 245 and additional material after it.
If title in 245 fields includes an ampersand, add a 246 with ampersand replaced with the word “and” and
vice versa.
Use 246, indicators 30, if the title contains a portion of the title in the 245.
Use 246, indicators 3 blank, if it represents a previous title.
JUVENILE FICTION MARC FIELDS/YOUTH FICTION
10 December 2, 2011
All foreign titles should be in the 246 field with indicators 31.
Foreign titles with initial articles are repeated in 246 fields with and without the initial article.
Delete all other subfields and ending punctuation.
Example in OCLC: 240 10 El general en su laberinto. ‡l English 245 14 The general in his labyrinth /|cGabriel García Márquez ; translated from the Spanish by Edith Grossman.
Example in Sirsi: 245 14 The general in his labyrinth /|cGabriel García Márquez ; translated from the Spanish by Edith Grossman. 246 31 General en su laberinto 246 31 El general en su laberinto
250 Edition Statement
Edition statements must match exactly the information appearing in the item, except that abbreviations as
prescribed in AACR2 Rev. may be used.
If more than one edition statement appears in the book, list one in the 250 field and the others in separate
note fields, indication source of information.
Retain but do not add first edition statements: 1st ed., 1
st U.S. ed., 1
St Harper ed.
JCL prefers the edition statement appearing in the following hierarchy:
Title page
Title page verso
First page of cover (front cover) **
Elsewhere on cover **
Preface/Introduction **
Jacket **
** Edition information found on these sources must appear in brackets.
Ignore the presence or absence of any 1st edition statements in determining whether the record matches
the item in hand. This includes 1st paperback editions, publisher imprint edition, editor edition
statements, and trade or library edition statements if, in the catalogers’ quick estimation, the content of the
work has not changed.
All other edition statements must match exactly, whether numbered or unnumbered. Examples of
unnumbered edition statements include:
Revised
Abridged
Updated and corrected
With new commentary and notes by
260 Publication, Distribution, Etc.
Verify place of publication, publisher, and dates against information for the item in hand.
JUVENILE FICTION MARC FIELDS/YOUTH FICTION
11 December 2, 2011
On all Juvenile Fiction print material as long as the title, author, page numbers, size, and illustrators
match, the publisher doesn’t need to.
300 Physical Description
Pagination must match within 10 pages, excluding preliminary and supplementary paging and leaves or
pages of plates.
For Juvenile fiction print books, ignore presence or absence of an illustration statement for ten (10) or
fewer illustrations (unless the illustrations are full-page color plates, in which case an illustration
statement must be present) or for illustrations that are simply charts.
Size as reported in subfield c will be within 2 cm. of the item in hand for a match.
4XX Series
Ignore the presence or absence of series in determining whether the item matches a record.
4XX/8XX Series
Verify if the series authority record for series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed. Edit or add the 8XX field to match
the authority record. Place all titles in a fiction series in the same genre (e.g. Fiction, Mystery, Science
fiction).
If the authority record says “use as quoted note”, change the 4XX/8XX fields to a single 500 note field.
Leave all series in a record.
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second indicator
blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
A JCL cataloguer will add an authority record, make changes to the bibliographic record as necessary
and remove 490 0 SERIES.
Volume Numbers – “v:” subfield
Add numbering of volume, if available in subfield “v” to 490 and 8XX fields.
Example: 490 1 The Californians ; ‡v bk. 4
800 1 Wick, Lori. ‡t Californians ; ‡v bk. 4.
490 (Unverified series)
The 490 is a descriptive field and should match the wording available for the series statement.
First indicator is 0, second indicator blank
JUVENILE FICTION MARC FIELDS/YOUTH FICTION
12 December 2, 2011
Example: 490 0 Heiress in London ;|v02
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi or OCLC, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second
indicator blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record. Series with no authority record will remain
in the bibliographic record as a 490 with first indicator 0. Once an authorized series authority record is
entered, the 490 0 SERIES will be deleted and series notes will be edited to match the form in the
authority record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
490/800 fields
Verify if the series authority record for a series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed on the book. Edit or add the 8XX
field to match the authorized heading. If there is one series title that covers all publishers and formats, use
that series heading in all existing records. If there are multiple series authority records for different
formats or different publishers use the specific series for the matching format or publisher when available.
In 490 field, the first indicator is 1; second indicator blank.
In the 800 field, the first indicator is usually 1, second indicator is blank. Example: 490 1 The Californians ; ‡v bk. 4
800 1 Wick, Lori. ‡t Californians ; ‡v bk. 4.
490/830 fields
Verify if the series authority record for a series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed on the book. Edit or add the 8XX
field to match the authorized heading. If there is one series title that covers all publishers and formats, use
that series heading in all existing records. If there are multiple series authority records for different
formats or different publishers use the specific series for the matching format or publisher when available.
In 490 field, the first indicator is 1; second indicator blank.
In the 830 field, the first indicator is blank, second indicator is 0. Example: 490 1 Star wars
830 0 Star wars (Bantam Books (Firm)
500 Notes
Verify the accuracy of content and summary notes and add content notes as needed for volume titles for
multi-volume sets.
Retain all content notes and add them for short story collections, if not provided.

6XX SUBJECT ACCESS
General Principles
The assignment of subject headings to individual works of fiction is intended to provide the average public library
user with an additional method of selecting recreational reading.
Do NOT use AC subject headings. Change to Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH)
with form subdivisions. Consult the “Common AC headings and their LCSH counterparts” list,
and check SIRSI for proper form of subject headings.
Headings should be assigned only as they come readily to mind after a superficial review of the work
being cataloged.
Whenever possible, make the subject headings match between multiple records for the same title.
Use LCSH headings with second indicator of 0 for 600, 610, 630, 650, 651 fields. Be sure to check the
list of AC to LCSH headings.
Delete all subject-heading fields with second indicators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
A minimum of one subject heading is required for all items. Two to four subject headings are preferred.
If record has only 2 subject headings, JCL prefers only one be a genre heading.
Form/genre headings indicate what the work is rather than what it is about. Select an appropriate genre
heading or headings, such as Love stories; Science fiction, Mystery fiction, War stories, etc. Generally
assign no more than one or two genre headings, expressing only the primary genre(s) of the work.
Use genre headings from Guidelines on Subject Access to Individual Works of Fiction, drama, etc. , 2nd
ed.
Genre Headings in Preferred Format. Change subdivision to Young adult literature as appropriate

Topical Access -- Assign headings for specific topics that are the focal point of an individual literary
work. Assign headings only for topics that have been made explicit by the author or publisher, such as
those topics that are mentioned in the title, series, introductory matter, dust jacket or other prominent
location. The purpose of the topical heading is to provide access for those topics that distinguish the work
from most other works. Do not assign headings for vague and general topics, such as fate, evil, belief,
psychology, interpersonal relations, emotions, social customs or community life. Assign only the most
specific heading that is appropriate. Normally no more than one or two topical headings need to be
assigned. Topical headings will have the subdivisions “Juvenile fiction” or “Young adult fiction” as
appropriate.

650 0 Detective and mystery stories ‡v Juvenile literature.
.
Individual Characters -- If the work prominently features a real person, a legendary character, other major
character not created by the author of the work assign a subject heading for the name of the character with
appropriate subdivision such as – Fiction.
If the primary character is a fictitious character created by the author, assign a subject heading only if the
character appears in three or more wore works. Consider the character to appear prominently if it is
integral to the story line, if the name is included either in the title or a series-like statement, or if there is a
possibility that patrons may seek the work based on the character.
Classes of persons -- A heading may also be assigned for the class of persons to which the primary
character belongs, if that class of persons is established and is likely to be sought by the typical public
library user., for example, women detectives, College teachers, Private investigators. , Domestics, etc.
Setting -- Assign a subject heading for a place, event, or time period that is featured prominently in an
individual work., or when it is judged to be important for retrieval. Assign these headings only if the
place or time is significant. Generally do not assign headings for a time period that is contemporaneous
to the period in which the work was written, for example, do not express the 19th century setting of a work
that was written in the 19th century. Generally do not assign a heading for the country in which the work
is set, when that country corresponds to the country in which the author lives. Assign a subject for an
imaginary place or organization only if the place appears in three or more works. Fictitious places
generally use the parenthetical qualifier (Imaginary place).
If other editions of a title exist in the database, copy those headings to the bibliographic record. Another
source of possible subject headings is bibliographic records for sound recordings of the title in hand,
either on SIRSI or OCLC if they are not readily available on the print record.

Guidelines for deleting the United States subdivision
Instances where you leave in the subdivision in all formats and levels:
A complete subdivision phrase: ‡z United States ‡x States
Biographical subject headings: 650 0 Artists ‡z France ‡x Biography ‡v Juvenile literature.
When the biography is about a person who lives in the United States, you may delete the United States
from the 650 field.
History subject headings: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡x History ‡v Juvenile literature.
Foreign relation documents such as treaties or other documents that display reciprocal agreements
between the United States and another country.
Travel: Example: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡v Guidebooks ‡v Juvenile literature.
If a topic heading with a sub-field ‡z United States is a cross-reference to one or more headings in our
local system, keep the subdivision in the heading.
Otherwise the subdivision ‡z United States can be deleted from all other topical headings (650 indicators
blank 0). If possible, avoid using ‡z United States for fiction headings. You should instead use the state
or the city/state geographical sub-division. State or the city/state geographical field is 651, indicators
blank 0. If in doubt, please consult a cataloger.
NOTICE THIS ONLY PERTAINS TO UNITED STATES AS A SUB-DIVISION IN A 650 FIELD. DO
NOT DELETE UNITED STATES WHEN IT APPEARS AS A 651 ‡a.

245 Title Statement
“n” subfield in the 245 field
The n subfield generally occurs in 245 fields when the “a” subfield of the 245 is not unique and
the only difference is numbering which does not signify a part.
When an h subfield is necessary, it follows the n subfield, but precedes the b subfield. Since the
numbering is in the n subfield, it is unnecessary to enter the numbering in the h subfield.
For searching and formatting for the hit list, the contents of the n subfield should be standardized
for the titles within a run. The volume number in the subfield n is included in the call number in
the 092 field and is formatted according to the instructions in the Volume field guidelines.
Example
245 10 Id entity. ‡n Vol. 1
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 2
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 3
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 4
JUVENILE FICTION Easy Fiction

p subfield in the 245 field
The p subfield displays in iBistro, but not in Workflows.
One configuration is an “a” subfield with a non-unique title and a unique subtitle in a p subfield
of the original OCLC record. Graphic novel series and television series are some of the
materials that may have this configuration of title.
When an h subfield is necessary, it follows the p subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield. The
general rule is to change the p subfield to a b subfield. Refer to the appropriate sections of the
manual for the current configuration of titles with this subfield.
500 Notes
Add notes for previous publication of title, if coded as “r” in the Date tp.
Example: 500 Originally published: Hour of redemption : the Ranger raid on Cabanatuan. New
York : Manor Books, c1978.
Books with accompanying materials.
If a book comes with CD, DVD, diskette, or other accompanying materials, determine if the material is
integral to the story in the book and if the book and accompanying material can be successfully circulated.
Discard material if it is only advertising or publisher’s catalog. If all accompanying material is discarded,
remove all notes and physical description referring to the accompanying material
Example: Book with CD. [Keep only if CD is kept.]
521 Target Audience Note
Do not add, edit or delete.
6XX SUBJECT ACCESS
General Principles
The assignment of subject headings to individual works of fiction is intended to provide the average
public library user with an additional method of selecting recreational reading.
Do NOT use AC subject headings. Change to Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) with form
subdivisions. Consult the “Common AC headings and their LCSH counterparts” list, and check SIRSI for
proper form of subject headings.
Headings should be assigned only as they come readily to mind after a superficial review of the work
being cataloged.
Whenever possible, make the subject headings match between multiple records for the same title.
JUVENILE FICTION Easy Fiction
23 December 2, 2011
Use LCSH headings with second indicator of 0 for 600, 610, 630, 650, 651 fields
Delete all subject-heading fields with second indicators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
A minimum of one subject heading is required for all items. Two to four subject headings are preferred.
If record has only 2 subject headings, JCL prefers only one be a genre heading.
Form/genre headings indicate what the work is rather than what it is about. Select an appropriate genre
heading or headings, such as Love stories; Science fiction, Mystery fiction, War stories, etc. Generally
assign no more than one or two genre headings, expressing only the primary genre(s) of the work.
Use genre headings from Guidelines on Subject Access to Individual Works of Fiction, drama, etc. , 2nd
ed.
Genre Headings in Preferred Format. Change subdivision to Young adult literature as appropriate
Add Juvenile literature to all 650 genre terms including but not exclusive to:
650 0 Adventure stories ‡v Juvenile literature.
650 0 Alternative histories (Fiction) ‡v Juvenile literature.
650 0 Autobiographical fiction ‡v Juvenile literature.

Topical Access -- Assign headings for specific topics that are the focal point of an individual literary
work. Assign headings only for topics that have been made explicit by the author or publisher, such as
those topics that are mentioned in the title, series, introductory matter, dust jacket or other prominent
location. The purpose of the topical heading is to provide access for those topics that distinguish the work
from most other works. Do not assign headings for vague and general topics, such as fate, evil, belief,
psychology, interpersonal relations, emotions, social customs or community life. Assign only the most
specific heading that is appropriate. Normally no more than one or two topical headings need to be
JUVENILE FICTION Easy Fiction
24 December 2, 2011
assigned. Topical headings will have the subdivisions “Juvenile fiction” or “Young adult fiction” as
appropriate.
650 0 White, Blanche (Fictitious character) ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 African American women ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Women detectives ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Caterers and catering ‡v Juvenile fiction.
651 0 North Carolina ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Detective and mystery stories ‡v Juvenile literature.
.
Individual Characters -- If the work prominently features a real person, a legendary character, other major
character not created by the author of the work assign a subject heading for the name of the character with
appropriate subdivision such as – Fiction.
If the primary character is a fictitious character created by the author, assign a subject heading only if the
character appears in three or more wore works. Consider the character to appear prominently if it is
integral to the story line, if the name is included either in the title or a series-like statement, or if there is a
possibility that patrons may seek the work based on the character.
Classes of persons -- A heading may also be assigned for the class of persons to which the primary
character belongs, if that class of persons is established and is likely to be sought by the typical public
library user, for example, women detectives, College teachers, Private investigators, Domestics, etc.
Setting -- Assign a subject heading for a place, event, or time period that is featured prominently in an
individual work., or when it is judged to be important for retrieval. Assign these headings only if the
place or time is significant. Generally do not assign headings for a time period that is contemporaneous
to the period in which the work was written, for example, do not express the 19th century setting of a work
that was written in the 19th century. Generally do not assign a heading for the country in which the work
is set, when that country corresponds to the country in which the author lives. Assign a subject for an
imaginary place or organization only if the place appears in three or more works. Fictitious places
generally use the parenthetical qualifier (Imaginary place).
If other editions of a title exist in the database, copy those headings to the bibliographic record. Another
source of possible subject headings is bibliographic records for sound recordings of the title in hand,
either on SIRSI or OCLC if they are not readily available on the print record.
Guidelines for deleting the United States subdivision
Instances where you leave in the subdivision in all formats and levels:
A complete subdivision phrase: ‡z United States ‡x States
Biographical subject headings: 650 0 Artists ‡z France ‡x Biography ‡v Juvenile literature.
When the biography is about a person who lives in the United States, you may delete the United States
from the 650 field.
History subject headings: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡x History ‡v Juvenile literature.

Foreign relation documents such as treaties or other documents that display reciprocal agreements
between the United States and another country.
Travel: Example: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡v Guidebooks ‡v Juvenile literature.
If a topic heading with a sub-field ‡z United States is a cross-reference to one or more headings in our
local system, keep the subdivision in the heading.
Otherwise the subdivision ‡z United States can be deleted from all other topical headings (650 indicators
blank 0). If possible, avoid using ‡z United States for fiction headings. You should instead use the state
or the city/state geographical sub-division. State or the city/state geographical field is 651, indicators
blank 0. If in doubt, please consult a cataloger.

6XX SUBJECT ACCESS
General Principles
The assignment of subject headings to individual works of fiction is intended to provide the average public library
user with an additional method of selecting recreational reading.
Do NOT use AC subject headings. Change to Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH)
with form subdivisions. Consult the “Common AC headings and their LCSH counterparts” list,
and check SIRSI for proper form of subject headings. Headings should be assigned only as they come readily to mind after a superficial review of the work being
cataloged.
Whenever possible, make the subject headings match between multiple records for the same title.
Use LCSH headings with second indicator of 0 for 600, 610, 630, 650, 651 fields
Delete all subject-heading fields with second indicators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
A minimum of one subject heading is required for all items. Two to four subject headings are preferred.
If record has only 2 subject headings, JCL prefers only one be a genre heading.
Form/genre headings indicate what the work is rather than what it is about. Select an appropriate genre heading or
headings, such as Love stories; Science fiction, Mystery fiction, War stories, etc. Generally assign no more than one
or two genre headings, expressing only the primary genre(s) of the work.
Use genre headings from Guidelines on Subject Access to Individual Works of Fiction, drama, etc. , 2nd
ed.
Genre Headings in Preferred Format. Change subdivision to Young adult literature as appropriate

Topical Access -- Assign headings for specific topics that are the focal point of an individual literary
work. Assign headings only for topics that have been made explicit by the author or publisher, such as
those topics that are mentioned in the title, series, introductory matter, dust jacket or other prominent
location. The purpose of the topical heading is to provide access for those topics that distinguish the work
from most other works. Do not assign headings for vague and general topics, such as fate, evil, belief,
psychology, interpersonal relations, emotions, social customs or community life. Assign only the most
specific heading that is appropriate. Normally no more than one or two topical headings need to be
assigned. Topical headings will have the subdivisions “Juvenile fiction” or “Young adult fiction” as
appropriate.
650 0 White, Blanche (Fictitious character) ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 African American women ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Women detectives ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Caterers and catering ‡v Juvenile fiction.
651 0 North Carolina ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Detective and mystery stories ‡v Juvenile literature.
.
Individual Characters -- If the work prominently features a real person, a legendary character, other major
character not created by the author of the work assign a subject heading for the name of the character with
appropriate subdivision such as – Fiction.
If the primary character is a fictitious character created by the author, assign a subject heading
only if the character appears in three or more wore works. Consider the character to appear
prominently if it is integral to the story line, if the name is included either in the title or a
series-like statement, or if there is a possibility that patrons may seek the work based on the
character.
Classes of persons -- A heading may also be assigned for the class of persons to which the primary
character belongs, if that class of persons is established and is likely to be sought by the typical public
library user., for example, women detectives, College teachers, Private investigators. , Domestics, etc.

35 December 2, 2011
Setting -- Assign a subject heading for a place, event, or time period that is featured prominently in an
individual work., or when it is judged to be important for retrieval. Assign these headings only if the
place or time is significant. Generally do not assign headings for a time period that is contemporaneous
to the period in which the work was written, for example, do not express the 19th century setting of a work
that was written in the 19th century. Generally do not assign a heading for the country in which the work
is set, when that country corresponds to the country in which the author lives. Assign a subject for an
imaginary place or organization only if the place appears in three or more works. Fictitious places
generally use the parenthetical qualifier (Imaginary place).
If other editions of a title exist in the database, copy those headings to the bibliographic record. Another
source of possible subject headings is bibliographic records for sound recordings of the title in hand,
either on SIRSI or OCLC if they are not readily available on the print record.
Guidelines for deleting the United States subdivision
Instances where you leave in the subdivision in all formats and levels:
A complete subdivision phrase: ‡z United States ‡x States
Biographical subject headings: 650 0 Artists ‡z France ‡x Biography ‡v Juvenile literature.
When the biography is about a person who lives in the United States, you may delete the United States
from the 650 field.
History subject headings: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡x History ‡v Juvenile literature.
Foreign relation documents such as treaties or other documents that display reciprocal agreements
between the United States and another country.
Travel: Example: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡v Guidebooks ‡v Juvenile literature.
If a topic heading with a sub-field ‡z United States is a cross-reference to one or more headings in our
local system, keep the subdivision in the heading.
Otherwise the subdivision ‡z United States can be deleted from all other topical headings (650 indicators
blank 0). If possible, avoid using ‡z United States for fiction headings. You should instead use the state
or the city/state geographical sub-division. State or the city/state geographical field is 651, indicators
blank 0. If in doubt, please consult a cataloger.
NOTICE THIS ONLY PERTAINS TO UNITED STATES AS A SUB-DIVISION IN A 650 FIELD. DO
NOT DELETE UNITED STATES WHEN IT APPEARS AS A 651 ‡a.
690 Local Subject heading
690 EER.
Add if noted in order or if part of a series where other titles have EER as a subject heading. These will
be titles with minimal text, possibly only one word or short sentence per page.

245 Title Statement
“n” subfield in the 245 field
The n subfield generally occurs in 245 fields when the “a” subfield of the 245 is not unique and
the only difference is numbering which does not signify a part. This is not common for picture
books.
When an “h” subfield is necessary, it follows the “n” subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield.
Since the numbering is in the n subfield, it is unnecessary to enter the numbering in the “h”
subfield.
JUVENILE FICTION Easy Picture
41 December 2, 2011
For searching and formatting for the hit list, the contents of the n subfield should be standardized
for the titles within a run. The volume number in the subfield n is included in the call number in
the 092 field and is formatted according to the instructions in the Volume field guidelines.
Example
245 10 Id entity. ‡n Vol. 1
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 2
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 3
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 4
p subfield in the 245 field
One configuration is an “a” subfield with a non-unique title and a unique subtitle in a p subfield
of the original OCLC record. Graphic novel series and television series are some of the
materials that may have this configuration of title. The 245 field will be edited if there is a
subfield “p” in the OCLC record.
When an “h” subfield is necessary, it follows the “p” subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield.
Refer to the appropriate sections of the manual for the current configuration of titles with this
subfield.
4XX Series
Ignore the presence or absence of series in determining whether the item matches a record.
4XX/8XX Series
Verify if the series authority record for series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed. Edit or add the 8XX field to match
the authority record. Place all titles in a fiction series in the same genre (e.g. Fiction, Mystery, Science
fiction).
If the authority record says “use as quoted note”, change the 4XX/8XX fields to a single 500 note field.
Leave all series in a record.
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second indicator
blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
A JCL cataloguer will add an authority record, make changes to the bibliographic record as necessary

generally use the parenthetical qualifier (Imaginary place).
If other editions of a title exist in the database, copy those headings to the bibliographic record. Another
source of possible subject headings is bibliographic records for sound recordings of the title in hand,
either on SIRSI or OCLC if they are not readily available on the print record.
Guidelines for deleting the United States subdivision
Instances where you leave in the subdivision in all formats and levels:
A complete subdivision phrase: ‡z United States ‡x States
Biographical subject headings: 650 0 Artists ‡z France ‡x Biography ‡v Juvenile literature.
When the biography is about a person who lives in the United States, you may delete the United States
from the 650 field.
History subject headings: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡x History ‡v Juvenile literature.
Foreign relation documents such as treaties or other documents that display reciprocal agreements
between the United States and another country.
Travel: Example: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡v Guidebooks ‡v Juvenile literature.
If a topic heading with a sub-field ‡z United States is a cross-reference to one or more headings in our
local system, keep the subdivision in the heading.
Otherwise the subdivision ‡z United States can be deleted from all other topical headings (650 indicators
blank 0). If possible, avoid using ‡z United States for fiction headings. You should instead use the state
or the city/state geographical sub-division. State or the city/state geographical field is 651, indicators
blank 0. If in doubt, please consult a cataloger.
NOTICE THIS ONLY PERTAINS TO UNITED STATES AS A SUB-DIVISION IN A 650 FIELD. DO
NOT DELETE UNITED STATES WHEN IT APPEARS AS A 651 ‡a.

Subfield a: Verify that the ISBN in the record matches the publisher and format. If the ISBN does
not match the ISBN on the on order record, verify which ISBN is correct for the title in
hand. Leave only the correct ISBN in record.
Subfield c: Add the correct price, when available.
If the price on the paper work is for a volume set, you need to determine the price for each volume. To
find the price for each volume, take the set price and divide this amount by the number of volumes in the
set. This will give you the price for each volume. This amount is entered on price subfield in the item
record when the volumes are inventoried.
Adding ISBN for paperbacks to a bibliographic record
Add the ISBN for the paperback copy when linking them to the same record as the hardback copy. Put
(pbk.) after the ISBN number, and include the price in the subfield c.
Paperbacks may be added to a record for the hardback, when the title, subtitle/other title information,
statement of responsibility, copyright date, edition and illustrator match exactly the title information as it
appears on the bibliographic record.
Verify any ISBN which is not on current copy in hand, as the older ISBNs may retrieve a different title
and generate duplicate reports.

CUTTERING POLICIES
DOUBLE CUTTERS FOR YOUTH SERIES
If titles are parts of a series, and have different authors they should be double cuttered with the
series title or continuing character. Check Children’s Series guidelines to determine if a series is to be
double cuttered. Since the list is not exhaustive, when character or series is not on an existing list,
contact the cataloger. Alert cataloger when multiple authors write for a particular series and no double
cutter exists.
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile fiction
50 December 2, 2011
If there is more than one series, double cutter the books with the title of the main series. If in
doubt about which series is the main one, please check with the selector.
Example: Star Wars has several sub-series: X-Wing, Rogue Squadron, Droids,
Underworld. These books are all to be double cuttered STARWARS (the main series)
For books in the same series, but with multiple authors, double cutter with the main series.
For books with a main character, double cutter with the name of the main character rather than
with the series title.
Example: Where Superman is the main character, cutter with SUPERMAN.
The author cutter is determined from the 1XX field of author main entry or the 245 field of title main
entry with exceptions for some series.
For fiction (all genres), the cutter is limited to the first 8 characters of the author’s surname and first name
taken from the authorized form in the 100 field. Do not include middle initials (unless initials are the only
form of a given name in the authority record) or dates of the author. Do not leave spaces between the
initials.
If the material is title entry, limit the cutter to the first 8 characters of the first non-article word of the title.
Use upper and lower case letters appropriately.
The first name or initial(s) are on the line after the surname on the spine label.
Consult label formats when editing the 092 field.
Acronyms
Use up to the first eight characters of the acronym. Eliminate spaces and punctuation, but use the case of
the acronym.
Apostrophes and Hyphens
Leave apostrophes and hyphens out.
Diacritics
Take out diacritics for the 092 field and on the spine labels.
Initials in cutters
Do not leave spaces between initials, such as Stine R.L.
Numerals as Cutters
Spell out (Example: 101 Dalmatians the cutter will be One)
Title Main Entry
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile fiction
51 December 2, 2011
Use first non-article word of title. If first word is a number, then use first word of the number spelled out.
Volume Numbering
For circulating and non circulating materials, this is generally only used on the spine labels when present
on the material and the decision is made to use the volume numbering for shelving purposes. Some
examples include encyclopedia sets or graphic novels that have the same title, are not part of a series,
have the same author, and have a volume number.
Dr., St., Mr., and Mrs.
Do not spell out, unless it is spelled out on the title. Always retain the period after Dr., St., Mr. and Mrs.
Run the letters together if there are more than 8 characters in a name.
Example: St. John
StAndrew (no spacing between letters)
Abbreviations – spell out the first word of the abbreviation, up to the first eight characters.
Hyphenated Double Surname
For a hyphenated double surname run the entire name together with no hyphen or spacing. Capitalize the
first letter of the second surname. Limit the number of characters to eight letters.
Example: Surname: Garcia-Marquez
Cutter: GarciaMa
Un-hyphenated Double Surname
For an un-hyphenated double surname run the name together with no spacing. Capitalize the first letter of
the second name. Limit the number of characters to eight letters.
Example: Surname: Lomas Garcia
Cutter: LomasGar
Names in direct order
For names in direct order, use up to the first 8 characters of the author’s name, using up to the first two
parts of the name taken from the authorized form in 100 field.
Example: 100 0 Minister Faust
Use Minister and Faust for the two cutters using the order in the 100 field.
Names with spaces between letters
If the last name contains a space between letters, leave in if the total number of characters does not exceed
8 characters (Example: De Palma). Remove the space to include 8 characters in the cutter.
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile fiction
52 December 2, 2011
Example: VanDraan [Van Draanen])—maintain capital letters.
Titled Persons (dagger “c”)
For persons with titles in the subfield c of the 600 field, use up to 8 characters of the first word of the title
in the subfield c.
Volume Numbering For circulating and non circulating materials, this is generally only used on the spine labels when present
on the material and the decision is made to use the volume numbering for shelving purposes. Some
examples include encyclopedia sets or graphic novels that have the same title, are not part of a series,
have the same author, and have a volume number.
Dates
Add the date to fiction titles, if the material has a copyright date in the current year and has not been
published previously
.
Use month of inventory and current date—01/2007. When copyright dates appear for the following year,
usually around fall, but can happen earlier, use month of inventory and current year until Dec. 31 of
current year. For example: A book is published September 2010 and received for cataloging in
September 2010, but copyrighted 2011. The 092 fields and spine label will use 09/2010.
100 Personal Name. Individual Author
If there are 3 authors, the first one goes in the 100 field. The other 2 go in 700 fields (separate entry for
each author). If there are 4 or more authors, make record a title entry, and list only the first author in a
700 field.
Adapted by
Juvenile fiction books that are considered children’s classics and have been “adapted by” another author
should have the original author of the work as the main entry (100 field). The person who adapted the
work will be a 700 entry. This rule only applies to juvenile fiction and not adult fiction.
For adapted works the 245 field should reflect what is on the title page.
FICTIONAL CONTINUING CHARACTERS WITH AUTHOR CHANGES
Use original author of the work as the main entry.
The 245 field should reflect what is on the title page
Trace the character in subject headings.
Add a 700 field for the author of book in hand.
Applies to juvenile fiction and not adult fiction
Examples of books where this applies:
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile fiction
53 December 2, 2011
Arthur Books
Flat Stanley books
Books by Matt Christopher
Arthur Books
All Arthur books, regardless of the author (i.e. Krensky) will be cataloged as E or J FICTION
Brown Marc. The actual author will be included in the record as a 700 entry, so you can still
search for all books he/she has written. Marc Brown will be the main entry (100 field), because
he is the creator of the series. The 245 field should reflect what is on the title page.
All J FICTION ARTHUR CHAPTER BOOKS will be cataloged with Marc Brown as the author
and a 700 reference for Stephen Krensky. (6/2004)
Flat Stanley Books
All Flat Stanley books, regardless of the author should be cuttered with Jeff Brown. The actual
author or adapter will be in the record as a 700 entry. Jeff Brown will be the main entry (100
Field) because he created the character of Flat Stanley. The 245 field should reflect what is on
the title page.
Matt Christopher
Books that have Matt Christopher on the title page, but are not necessarily written by Matt
Christopher will have Matt Christopher in the 100 field, and the “real” author of the book in a
700 field. The “real” author will most likely be found on the verso of the title page possibly in
the CIP record. The 245 field should reflect what is on the title page.
Posthumous publications of an author
If the deceased author is identified as the author of a work published posthumously, use the author in the
100 field and make 7XX added entries for any additional authors.
If another author continues a series, character, story line etc. begun by the deceased author, use the new
author in the 100 field, if identified as the actual writer of the book.
If the deceased author is noted on the book, make a 7XX added entry in the record.
Author writing as
If a title page has the phrase Author writing as Author 2nd
name, use the first name for the 100 entry.
Example: When lightning strikes /|cMeg Cabot writing as Jenny Carroll.
Cabot is the name to use in the 100 field. Carroll is entered as an added author in the 700 field.

Books containing more than one title
For books containing more than one title verify which of the following circumstances apply to the book in
hand. Follow the procedures which apply to the title in hand.
Collective title/same author
The bib record will be an author main entry with the collective title in the 245 field. For up to four titles
list each title in a 740 title added entry. The first indicator is “0” for non filing characters, and the second
indicator is “2”. If there are five or more titles, up to fifty titles list them in an enhanced 505 contents
note.
More than one title/No collective title/same author
The bib record will be an author main entry. The title field (245) will contain the first title. For four or
fewer titles list the titles in 740 added title entries. The first indicator is “0” for non filing characters, and
the second indicator is “2”. If there are five or more titles, up to fifty titles list them in an enhanced 505
contents note.
Collective title/different authors
These books will be cataloged in the appropriate genre under title main entry.
No collective title/different authors
These books will be cataloged in the appropriated genre under title main entry for the first listed
title.
130 Uniform Title
Change to a 730.
240 Uniform Titles
Change to a 246, indicators 30, if the title contains a portion of the title in the 245.
Change to a 246, indicators 3 blank, if it represents a previous title.
Change to a 246, indicators 3, second indicator 1, if it represents a foreign language title. Delete subfield
“l” language.
Example in OCLC:
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile fiction
55 December 2, 2011
Example in Sirsi:
Delete the following: Works, Selection, Prose or other generic titles
245 Title
Numbered Series
The series number is to be added for all youth books which are part of a numbered series. The number goes in the
245 field subfield h. They symbol for number (#) is to be used in all cases. No space between the symbol for
number (e.g. #9) and the number.
Example: 245 10 Understand the unknown ‡h [#10] / ‡c K. A. Applegate
Check Children’s Series guidelines to determine if a series is to be double cuttered.
“n” subfield in the 245 field
The n subfield generally occurs in 245 fields when the “a” subfield of the 245 is not unique and
the only difference is numbering which does not signify a part. This is more common in graphic
titles. If there is a unique title in a subfield p in the OCLC record, we will edit the record.
When an “h” subfield is necessary, it follows the “n” subfield, but precedes the b subfield. Since
the numbering is in the n subfield, it is unnecessary to enter the numbering in the h subfield.
For searching and formatting for the hit list, the contents of the n subfield should be standardized
for the titles within a run. The volume number in the subfield n is included in the call number in
the 092 field and is formatted according to the instructions in the Volume field guidelines.
Example
245 10 Id _entity. ‡n Vol.1
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol.2
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol.3
p subfield in the 245 field
One configuration is an ‘a’ subfield with a non-unique title and a unique subtitle in a p subfield
in the OCLC record. Graphic novel series and television series are some of the materials that
may have this configuration of title.
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile fiction
56 December 2, 2011
When an “h” subfield is necessary, it follows the “p” subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield.
Use the unique title of book in hand in title field for the 245 title for JCL catalog.
On title page: Reborn! 15 Blood of the Vongola II

246 Varying format of title
If any varying titles appear on the item, use a 246 and the appropriate indicators. Do not add varying
titles that repeat the exact wording of the 245 and additional material after it.
If title in 245 fields includes an ampersand, add a 246 with ampersand replaced with the word “and” and
vice versa.
All foreign titles should be in the 246 field with first indicator 3; second indicator 1.
Foreign titles with initial articles are repeated in 246 fields with and without the initial article.
Delete all other subfields and ending punctuation.

Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed. Edit or add the 8XX field to match
the authority record. Place all titles in a fiction series in the same genre (e.g. Fiction, Mystery, Science
fiction).
If the authority record says “use as quoted note”, change the 4XX/8XX fields to a single 500 note field.
Leave all series in a record.
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second indicator
blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
A JCL cataloguer will add an authority record, make changes to the bibliographic record as necessary
and remove 490 0 SERIES.
Volume Numbers – “v:” subfield
Add numbering of volume, if available in subfield “v” to 490 and 8XX fields.
Example: The penultimate peril|h[#12] /|cby Lemony Snicket ; illustrations by Brett Helquist.

800 1 Snicket, Lemony.|tSeries of unfortunate events ;|vbk. 12
490 (Unverified series)
The 490 is a descriptive field and should match the wording available for the series statement.
First indicator is 0, second indicator blank
Example: 490 0 Heiress in London ;|v02
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi or OCLC, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second
indicator blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record. Series with no authority record will remain
in the bibliographic record as a 490 with first indicator 0. Once an authorized series authority record is
entered, the 490 0 SERIES will be deleted and series notes will be edited to match the form in the
authority record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile fiction
58 December 2, 2011
490/800 fields

Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed on the book. Edit or add the 8XX
field to match the authorized heading. If there is one series title that covers all publishers and formats, use
that series heading in all existing records. If there are multiple series authority records for different
formats or different publishers use the specific series for the matching format or publisher when available.
In 490 field, the first indicator is 1; second indicator blank.
In the 800 field, the first indicator is usually 1, second indicator is blank. Example: 490 1 Baby-sitters little sister ;|v#45
800 1 Martin, Ann M.,|d1955- |tBabysitters little sister ;|v#45.

6XX SUBJECT ACCESS
General Principles
The assignment of subject headings to individual works of fiction is intended to provide the average
public library user with an additional method of selecting recreational reading.
Do NOT use AC subject headings. Change to Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) with form
subdivisions. Consult the “Common AC headings and their LCSH counterparts” list, and check SIRSI for
proper form of subject headings.
Headings should be assigned only as they come readily to mind after a superficial review of the work
being cataloged.
Whenever possible, make the subject headings match between multiple records for the same title.
Use LCSH headings with second indicator of 0 for 600, 610, 630, 650, 651 fields
Delete all subject-heading fields with second indicators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
A minimum of one subject heading is required for all items. Two to four subject headings are preferred.
If record has only 2 subject headings, JCL prefers only one be a genre heading.
Form/genre headings indicate what the work is rather than what it is about. Select an appropriate genre
heading or headings, such as Love stories; Science fiction, Mystery fiction, War stories, etc. Generally
assign no more than one or two genre headings, expressing only the primary genre(s) of the work.
Use genre headings from Guidelines on Subject Access to Individual Works of Fiction, drama, etc. , 2nd
ed.
Genre Headings in Preferred Format. Change subdivision to Young adult literature as appropriate

Topical Access -- Assign headings for specific topics that are the focal point of an individual literary
work. Assign headings only for topics that have been made explicit by the author or publisher, such as
those topics that are mentioned in the title, series, introductory matter, dust jacket or other prominent
location. The purpose of the topical heading is to provide access for those topics that distinguish the work
from most other works. Do not assign headings for vague and general topics, such as fate, evil, belief,
psychology, interpersonal relations, emotions, social customs or community life. Assign only the most
specific heading that is appropriate. Normally no more than one or two topical headings need to be
assigned. Topical headings will have the subdivisions “Juvenile fiction” or “Young adult fiction” as
appropriate.
650 0 White, Blanche (Fictitious character) ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 African American women ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Women detectives ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Caterers and catering ‡v Juvenile fiction.
651 0 North Carolina ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Detective and mystery stories ‡v Juvenile literature.
.
Individual Characters -- If the work prominently features a real person, a legendary character, other major
character not created by the author of the work assign a subject heading for the name of the character with
appropriate subdivision such as – Fiction.
If the primary character is a fictitious character created by the author, assign a subject heading
only if the character appears in three or more wore works. Consider the character to appear
prominently if it is integral to the story line, if the name is included either in the title or a
series-like statement, or if there is a possibility that patrons may seek the work based on the
character.
Classes of persons -- A heading may also be assigned for the class of persons to which the primary
character belongs, if that class of persons is established and is likely to be sought by the typical public
library user., for example, women detectives, College teachers, Private investigators. , Domestics, etc.
Setting -- Assign a subject heading for a place, event, or time period that is featured prominently in an
individual work., or when it is judged to be important for retrieval. Assign these headings only if the
place or time is significant. Generally do not assign headings for a time period that is contemporaneous
to the period in which the work was written, for example, do not express the 19th century setting of a work
that was written in the 19th century. Generally do not assign a heading for the country in which the work
is set, when that country corresponds to the country in which the author lives. Assign a subject for an
imaginary place or organization only if the place appears in three or more works. Fictitious places
generally use the parenthetical qualifier (Imaginary place).

If other editions of a title exist in the database, copy those headings to the bibliographic record. Another
source of possible subject headings is bibliographic records for sound recordings of the title in hand,
either on SIRSI or OCLC if they are not readily available on the print record.
Guidelines for deleting the United States subdivision
Instances where you leave in the subdivision in all formats and levels:
A complete subdivision phrase: ‡z United States ‡x States
Biographical subject headings: 650 0 Artists ‡z France ‡x Biography ‡v Juvenile literature.
When the biography is about a person who lives in the United States, you may delete the United States
from the 650 field.
History subject headings: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡x History ‡v Juvenile literature.
Foreign relation documents such as treaties or other documents that display reciprocal agreements
between the United States and another country.
Travel: Example: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡v Guidebooks ‡v Juvenile literature.
If a topic heading with a sub-field ‡z United States is a cross-reference to one or more headings in our
local system, keep the subdivision in the heading.
Otherwise the subdivision ‡z United States can be deleted from all other topical headings (650 indicators
blank 0). If possible, avoid using ‡z United States for fiction headings. You should instead use the state
or the city/state geographical sub-division. State or the city/state geographical field is 651, indicators
blank 0. If in doubt, please consult a cataloger.
NOTICE THIS ONLY PERTAINS TO UNITED STATES AS A SUB-DIVISION IN A 650 FIELD. DO
NOT DELETE UNITED STATES WHEN IT APPEARS AS A 651 ‡a.

Juvenile Graphic Novels
POLICY
There will be J, YA and adult graphic novels--fiction and nonfiction.
They will be shelved separately from the regular J fiction and J nonfiction.
They will be cataloged so that holds can be placed.
All 13 branches have J graphic collections.
SELECTION CRITERIA
Subject matter of interest to the J audience
No excessive evidence of graphic depiction of sex.
Straightforward plot.
RESPONSIBILITY
Graphic novels can be considered works of mixed responsibility.
For works that have been adapted to the graphic fiction format use the name of the adapter as the main
entry with an author/title added entry for the original work. (AACR2, Revised Chapters 21.8-21.10A).
Example: City of glass ‡h[juvenile graphic] / ‡c Paul Auster ; adaptation by Paul Karasik
and David Mazzucchelli ; new introduction by Art Spiegelman. Main entry under Paul
Karasik with an added entry for Paul Auster and David Mazzucchelli.
For works listing the original author and a translator who may or may not have adapted the text, use the
original author as the main entry, especially if the original author is listed in the chief source of
information as the first author listed. Make the translator/adapter an added entry.
Example: The wallflower. ‡n 8 ‡h [juvenile graphic] / ‡c Tomoko Hayakawa ; translated and
adapted by
David Ury ; lettered by Dana Hayward. Main entry under Hayakawa with added entry
for Ury.
For situations not listed here refer to the AACR2, Revised, Chapter 21, or consult a cataloger.

Translated Westernized versions of titles (read front to back) that may have a series, a unique
title and a volume number.
Given the possible variations of types of titles within currently received series, include the
volume number on the spine label and in the “h” subfield whenever there is a volume number for
a series that includes a unique title.
Nonunique titles with volume numbers and Manga with only the series, no unique title and a
volume number will also have the volume number on the spine label, but the volume number
will usually be in the “n” subfield not the subfield “h”.
If there is a volume number and it does not fit within the 40 character call number field, it
should be added to the label and add the volume number in the public note field in the item
record.
LABELS
If we already own titles in a series, and we order additional titles/volumes of the same
series, continue with the same format for cutters for the additional titles. Do not double
cutter additional titles within a series, if we have not done so for that series in the past. Do
double cutter for a new series if the double cutter would be a character. Generally, we will
not retroactively recall older titles.
Author’s Last Name (limit 8 characters)
Author’s First Name (limit 8 characters) (Do not add first name to call number if fiction label will

No punctuation except periods following initials.
Nonfiction graphic novels use only author surname for call number
Double Cutters for J Fiction Graphic Novels
If there is more than one series, double cutter the books with the title of the main series. If in doubt about
which series is the main one, please check with the selector.
Example: Star Wars has several sub-series: X-Wing, Rogue Squadron, Droids,
Underworld. These books are all to be double cuttered
STARWARS (the main series)
For books in the same series, but with multiple authors, double cutter with the main series.
For books with a main character, double cutter with the name of the main character rather than the series.
Example: Spider-man has several sub-series: Amazing Spider-man,
Ultimate Spider-man, Peter Parker Spider-man will all be
cuttered SPIDERMA.
Adding Volume Number
Add the volume number to this field when books all have the same title and a volume number, and no
other subtitle
If the graphic novel does not conform to any conditions listed, please contact a JCL cataloger.
100 Personal Name
Books can have the author, creator, adaptor, or artist as a main entry.
If the author’s name appears only on the cover of the book, assume this is the main entry.
245 Title Statement
All graphic novels will have a GMD subfield “h” of juvenile graphic.
Example: ǂh [juvenile graphic]
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile Graphic Novels
69 December 2, 2011
Non unique title: When cataloging a group of books that all have the same title and no other subtitle
except for a number, enter the number in a subfield “n” and not in a subfield “h”.
Example: 245 10 Akira. ǂn Book 6 ǂh [juvenile graphic] / ‡c Katsuhiro Otomo.
If the series title is in the 245 subfield “a” is the same as the 440 series entry, you need to have
the title in both fields, even though they are the same title.
Unique title: Use subfield “h” for the series number, when the subfield “a” in the 245 contains a unique
title and has a numbered series.
Example: 245 10 Itachi’s power ǂh[juvenile graphic #17]
246 3 Naruto. ǂn Vol. 17, ǂp Itachi’s power
490 0 Naruto ;|v v.17
“n” subfield in the 245 field
The “n” subfield generally occurs in 245 fields when the “a” subfield of the 245 is not unique
and the only difference is numbering, which does not signify a part.
When an “h” subfield is necessary, it follows the “n” subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield.
Since the numbering is in the “n” subfield, it is unnecessary to enter the numbering in the “h”
subfield.
For searching and formatting for the hit list, the contents of the “n” subfield should be
standardized for the titles within a run. The volume number in the subfield “n” is included in the
call number in the 092 field and is formatted according to the instructions in the Volume field
guidelines.
Example
245 10 Id entity. ‡n Vol. 1
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 2
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 3
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 4
p subfield in the 245 field
One configuration is an “a” subfield with a non-unique title and a unique subtitle in a “p”
subfield of the original OCLC record. For graphic novels, change the unique title in the “p”
subfield to the “a” subfield of the 245 field.
The non-unique title and any volume numbering are entered in the 246 added title field. The
non-unique title is entered as a series title in the 440 field.

4XX/8XX Series
Verify if the series authority record for series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed. Edit or add the 8XX field to match
the authority record. Place all titles in a fiction series in the same genre (e.g. Fiction, Mystery, Science
fiction).
If the authority record says “use as quoted note”, change the 4XX/8XX fields to a single 500 note field.
Leave all series in a record.
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second indicator
blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
A JCL cataloguer will add an authority record, make changes to the bibliographic record as necessary
and remove 490 0 SERIES.
Volume Numbers – “v:” subfield
Add numbering of volume, if available in subfield “v” to 490 and 8XX fields.
Example: 490 1 Boxcar children graphic novels ;|vv.11.
800 1 Boxcar children graphic novels ;|vv.11.
Multiple series entries are possible.
If there is more than one author for a series, double cutter the books with the title of the main series.
If in doubt, please check with the selector or cataloger.

Examples Star Wars has several sub-series: X-Wing, Rogue Squadron, Droids, and
Underworld. These books are all double cuttered STARWARS.
Series titles may be based on the name of the main character.
Spider-man has several sub-series: Amazing Spider-man, Ultimate Spider-man, Peter Parker

650 Subject Tracings
All J graphic novels will have a 650 as follows:
650 0 Graphic novels ‡v Juvenile literature.
All topical headings, including “Fictitious character”, will have the subdivision ‡v Juvenile fiction for
graphic fiction titles.
Ex. 650 0 Hardy Boys (Fictitious characters) ‡v Juvenile fiction.
Delete the subject headings which include Comic books, strips, etc as part of the main heading from
works of fiction.
Ex. Fantasy comic books, strips, etc. Change to Fantasy fiction ‡v Juvenile literature.
Retain the subdivision Comic books, strips, etc. only for non-fiction graphic titles and add ‡v
Juvenile literature.
Ex. 650 0 Baseball ‡v Comic books, strips, etc. ‡v Juvenile literature.
The assignment of subject headings to individual works is intended to provide the average public library
user with subject access to select nonfiction and recreational reading.
Headings should be assigned only as they come readily to mind after a superficial review of the work
being cataloged.
Whenever possible, make the subject headings match between multiple records for the same title.
Use LCSH headings with second indicator of 0 for 600, 610, 630, 650, 651 fields
Delete all subject-heading fields with second indicators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
A minimum of one subject heading is required for all items. Two to four subject headings are preferred.
If record has only 2 subject headings for fiction, JCL prefers only one be a genre heading.

The assignment of subject headings to individual works of fiction is intended to provide the average
public library user with an additional method of selecting recreational reading.
Do NOT use AC subject headings. Change to Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) with form
subdivisions. Consult the “Common AC headings and their LCSH counterparts” list, and check SIRSI for
proper form of subject headings.
Headings should be assigned only as they come readily to mind after a superficial review of the work
being cataloged.
Whenever possible, make the subject headings match between multiple records for the same title.
Use LCSH headings with second indicator of 0 for 600, 610, 630, 650, 651 fields
Delete all subject-heading fields with second indicators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
A minimum of one subject heading is required for all items. Two to four subject headings are preferred.
If record has only 2 subject headings, JCL prefers only one be a genre heading.
Form/genre headings indicate what the work is rather than what it is about. Select an appropriate genre
heading or headings, such as Love stories; Science fiction, Mystery fiction, War stories, etc. Generally
assign no more than one or two genre headings, expressing only the primary genre(s) of the work.
Use genre headings from Guidelines on Subject Access to Individual Works of Fiction, drama, etc. , 2nd
ed.
Genre Headings in Preferred Format. Change subdivision to Young adult literature as appropriate
Add Juvenile literature to all 650 genre terms including but not exclusive to:

Topical Access -- Assign headings for specific topics that are the focal point of an individual literary
work. Assign headings only for topics that have been made explicit by the author or publisher, such as
those topics that are mentioned in the title, series, introductory matter, dust jacket or other prominent
location. The purpose of the topical heading is to provide access for those topics that distinguish the work
from most other works. Do not assign headings for vague and general topics, such as fate, evil, belief,
psychology, interpersonal relations, emotions, social customs or community life. Assign only the most
specific heading that is appropriate. Normally no more than one or two topical headings need to be
assigned. Topical headings will have the subdivisions “Juvenile fiction” or “Young adult fiction” as
appropriate.
650 0 White, Blanche (Fictitious character) ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 African American women ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Women detectives ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Caterers and catering ‡v Juvenile fiction.
651 0 North Carolina ‡v Juvenile fiction.
650 0 Detective and mystery stories ‡v Juvenile literature.
.
Individual Characters -- If the work prominently features a real person, a legendary character, other major
character not created by the author of the work assign a subject heading for the name of the character with
appropriate subdivision such as – Fiction.
If the primary character is a fictitious character created by the author, assign a subject heading only if the
character appears in three or more wore works. Consider the character to appear prominently if it is
integral to the story line, if the name is included either in the title or a series-like statement, or if there is a
possibility that patrons may seek the work based on the character.
Classes of persons -- A heading may also be assigned for the class of persons to which the primary
character belongs, if that class of persons is established and is likely to be sought by the typical public
library user., for example, women detectives, College teachers, Private investigators. , Domestics, etc.
Setting -- Assign a subject heading for a place, event, or time period that is featured prominently in an
individual work., or when it is judged to be important for retrieval. Assign these headings only if the
place or time is significant. Generally do not assign headings for a time period that is contemporaneous
to the period in which the work was written, for example, do not express the 19th century setting of a work
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile Mystery
80 December 2, 2011
that was written in the 19th century. Generally do not assign a heading for the country in which the work
is set, when that country corresponds to the country in which the author lives. Assign a subject for an
imaginary place or organization only if the place appears in three or more works. Fictitious places
generally use the parenthetical qualifier (Imaginary place).
If other editions of a title exist in the database, copy those headings to the bibliographic record. Another
source of possible subject headings is bibliographic records for sound recordings of the title in hand,
either on SIRSI or OCLC if they are not readily available on the print record.
Guidelines for deleting the United States subdivision
Instances where you leave in the subdivision in all formats and levels:
A complete subdivision phrase: ‡z United States ‡x States
Biographical subject headings: 650 0 Artists ‡z France ‡x Biography ‡v Juvenile literature.
When the biography is about a person who lives in the United States, you may delete the United States
from the 650 field.
History subject headings: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡x History ‡v Juvenile literature.
Foreign relation documents such as treaties or other documents that display reciprocal agreements
between the United States and another country.
Travel: Example: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡v Guidebooks ‡v Juvenile literature.
If a topic heading with a sub-field ‡z United States is a cross-reference to one or more headings in our
local system, keep the subdivision in the heading.
Otherwise the subdivision ‡z United States can be deleted from all other topical headings (650 indicators
blank 0). If possible, avoid using ‡z United States for fiction headings. You should instead use the state
or the city/state geographical sub-division. State or the city/state geographical field is 651, indicators
blank 0. If in doubt, please consult a cataloger.
NOTICE THIS ONLY PERTAINS TO UNITED STATES AS A SUB-DIVISION IN A 650 FIELD. DO
NOT DELETE UNITED STATES WHEN IT APPEARS AS A 651 ‡a.
700 Joint authors or responsible persons.

No punctuation except periods following initials.
100 Main entry
If there are 3 authors, the first one goes in the 100 field. The other 2 go in 700 fields (separate entry for
each author). If there are 4 or more authors, make record a title entry, and list only the first author in a
700 field.
Adapted by
Juvenile fiction books that are considered children’s classics and have been “adapted by” another
author should have the original author of the work as the main entry. The person who adapted
the work will be a 700 entry. This rule only applies to juvenile fiction and not adult fiction.
For adapted works the 245 field should reflect what is on the title page.
245 Title Statement
Numbered Series
The series number is added for all juvenile science fiction books which are part of a numbered
series. The number goes in the 245 field ‡h subfield. Example ‡h [#9]. The symbol for number
(#) is to be used in all cases. No space between the number symbol (e.g. #9) and the number.
Check Children’s Series guidelines to determine if a series is to be double cuttered.
“n” subfield in the 245 field
The n subfield generally occurs in 245 fields when the a subfield of the 245 is not unique and the
only difference is numbering which does not signify a part.
When an h subfield is necessary, it follows the n subfield, but precedes the b subfield. Since the
numbering is in the n subfield, it is unnecessary to enter the numbering in the h subfield.
For searching and formatting for the hit list, the contents of the n subfield should be standardized
for the titles within a run. The volume number in the subfield n is included in the call number in
the 092 field and is formatted according to the instructions in the Volume field guidelines.
Example
245 10 Id entity. ‡n Vol. 1
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 2
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 3
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 4
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile Science Fiction
85 December 2, 2011
p subfield in the 245 field
One configuration is an a subfield with a non-unique title and a unique subtitle in a p subfield of
the original OCLC record. Graphic novel series and television series are some of the materials
that may have this configuration of title.
When an h subfield is necessary, it follows the p subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield. Refer to
the appropriate sections of the manual for the current configuration of titles with this subfield.
4XX Series
Ignore the presence or absence of series in determining whether the item matches a record.
4XX/8XX Series
Verify if the series authority record for series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed. Edit or add the 8XX field to match
the authority record. Place all titles in a fiction series in the same genre (e.g. Fiction, Mystery, Science
fiction).
If the authority record says “use as quoted note”, change the 4XX/8XX fields to a single 500 note field.
Leave all series in a record.
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second indicator
blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
A JCL cataloguer will add an authority record, make changes to the bibliographic record as necessary
and remove 490 0 SERIES.
Volume Numbers – “v:” subfield
Add numbering of volume, if available in subfield “v” to 490 and 8XX fields.
Example: The penultimate peril|h[#12] /|cby Lemony Snicket ; illustrations by Brett Helquist.
490 1 Series of unfortunate events ;|vbk. 12
800 1 Snicket, Lemony.|tSeries of unfortunate events ;|vbk. 12
490 (Unverified series)
The 490 is a descriptive field and should match the wording available for the series statement.
First indicator is 0, second indicator blank
Example: 490 0 Heiress in London ;|v02
JUVENILE FICTION Juvenile Science Fiction
86 December 2, 2011
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi or OCLC, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second
indicator blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record. Series with no authority record will remain
in the bibliographic record as a 490 with first indicator 0. Once an authorized series authority record is
entered, the 490 0 SERIES will be deleted and series notes will be edited to match the form in the
authority record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
490/800 fields
Verify if the series authority record for a series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed on the book. Edit or add the 8XX
field to match the authorized heading. If there is one series title that covers all publishers and formats, use
that series heading in all existing records. If there are multiple series authority records for different
formats or different publishers use the specific series for the matching format or publisher when available.
In 490 field, the first indicator is 1; second indicator blank.
In the 800 field, the first indicator is usually 1, second indicator is blank. Example: 490 1 Baby-sitters little sister ;|v#45
800 1 Martin, Ann M.,|d1955- |tBabysitters little sister ;|v#45.
490/830 fields
Verify if the series authority record for a series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed on the book. Edit or add the 8XX
field to match the authorized heading. If there is one series title that covers all publishers and formats, use
that series heading in all existing records. If there are multiple series authority records for different
formats or different publishers use the specific series for the matching format or publisher when available.
In 490 field, the first indicator is 1; second indicator blank.
In the 830 field, the first indicator is blank, second indicator is 0. Example: 490 1 Star wars
830 0 Star wars (Bantam Books (Firm)

POLICY:
Young adult materials are selected for upper elementary grades through early high school levels with the
major emphasis placed on the middle school or junior high grade level. Young adult collections are
designed to complement the recreational reading, listening, and viewing materials available at Johnson
County Library. Materials in the Young Adult collection concern topics of interest to young people.
These are works aimed at an audience in their teens.
The prefix for this collection will be assigned by the Children's Selector.
SELECTION CRITERIA
Intended audience, 12 years to 15 years of age
To determine whether a “borderline” book is a J or a YA, apply the following criteria:
Look at the age of the characters, if 14 years or older books will be YA
Look at the content. If the book appeals more to YA audience, then it will be YA.
Look at the writing structure. If the book is more sophisticated, than it will be YA.
Look at the author’s previous works. If they are predominately YA, new title will probably be YA also.

100 Main Entry
If there are 3 authors, the first one goes in the 100 field. The other 2 go in 700 fields( separate
entry for each author). If there are 4 or more authors, make record a title entry, and list only the
first author in a 700 field.
Adapted by
Young adult fiction books that are considered children’s classics and have been “adapted by”
another author should have the original author of the work as the main entry. The person who
adapted the work will be a 700 entry. This rule only apples to juvenile fiction and not adult
fiction. For adapted works the 245 field should reflect what is on the title page.
245 Title Statement
Numbered Series
The series number is to be added for all youth books which are part of a numbered series. The
number goes in the 245 field subfield h. They symbol for number (#) is to be used in all cases.
No space between the symbol for number (e.g. #9) and the number.
Example: 245 10 Understand the unknown ‡h [#10] / ‡c K. A. Applegate
Check Children’s Series guidelines to determine if a series is to be double cuttered.
“n” subfield in the 245 field
The n subfield generally occurs in 245 fields when the “a” subfield of the 245 is not unique and
the only difference is numbering which does not signify a part.
When an h subfield is necessary, it follows the n subfield, but precedes the b subfield. Since the
numbering is in the n subfield, it is unnecessary to enter the numbering in the h subfield.
JUVENILE FICTION Young Adult Fiction
94 December 2, 2011
For searching and formatting for the hit list, the contents of the n subfield should be standardized
for the titles within a run. The volume number in the subfield n is included in the call number in
the 092 field and is formatted according to the instructions in the Volume field guidelines.
Example
245 10 Id entity. ‡n Vol. 1
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 2
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 3
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 4
p subfield in the 245 field
One configuration is an “a” subfield with a non-unique title and a unique subtitle in a p subfield
of the original OCLC record. Graphic novel series and television series are some of the
materials that may have this configuration of title.
When an h subfield is necessary, it follows the p subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield. Refer
to the appropriate sections of the manual for the current configuration of titles with this subfield.
4XX Series
Ignore the presence or absence of series in determining whether the item matches a record.
4XX/8XX Series
Verify if the series authority record for series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed. Edit or add the 8XX field to match
the authority record. Place all titles in a fiction series in the same genre (e.g. Fiction, Mystery, Science
fiction).
If the authority record says “use as quoted note”, change the 4XX/8XX fields to a single 500 note field.
Leave all series in a record.
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second indicator
blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
A JCL cataloguer will add an authority record, make changes to the bibliographic record as necessary
and remove 490 0 SERIES.
Volume Numbers – “v:” subfield
Add numbering of volume, if available in subfield “v” to 490 and 8XX fields.

6XX SUBJECT ACCESS
General Principles
The assignment of subject headings to individual works of fiction is intended to provide the average public library
user with an additional method of selecting recreational reading.
Do NOT use AC subject headings. Change to Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH)
with form subdivisions. Consult the “Common AC headings and their LCSH counterparts” list,
and check SIRSI for proper form of subject headings.
Headings should be assigned only as they come readily to mind after a superficial review of the work
being cataloged.
Whenever possible, make the subject headings match between multiple records for the same title.
Use LCSH headings with second indicator of 0 for 600, 610, 630, 650, 651 fields
Delete all subject-heading fields with second indicators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
A minimum of one subject heading is required for all items. Two to four subject headings are preferred.
If record has only 2 subject headings, JCL prefers only one be a genre heading.
Form/genre headings indicate what the work is rather than what it is about. Select an appropriate genre
heading or headings, such as Love stories; Science fiction, Mystery fiction, War stories, etc. Generally
assign no more than one or two genre headings, expressing only the primary genre(s) of the work.
Use genre headings from Guidelines on Subject Access to Individual Works of Fiction, drama, etc. , 2nd
ed.
Genre Headings in Preferred Format. Change subdivision to Young adult literature as appropriate
Add Young adult literature to all 650 genre terms including but not exclusive to:

Topical Access -- Assign headings for specific topics that are the focal point of an individual literary
work. Assign headings only for topics that have been made explicit by the author or publisher, such as
those topics that are mentioned in the title, series, introductory matter, dust jacket or other prominent
location. The purpose of the topical heading is to provide access for those topics that distinguish the work
from most other works. Do not assign headings for vague and general topics, such as fate, evil, belief,
psychology, interpersonal relations, emotions, social customs or community life. Assign only the most
specific heading that is appropriate. Normally no more than one or two topical headings need to be
assigned. Topical headings will have the subdivisions “Juvenile fiction” or “Young adult fiction” as
appropriate.
650 0 White, Blanche (Fictitious character) ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 African American women ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 Women detectives ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 Caterers and catering ‡v Young adult fiction.
651 0 North Carolina ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 Detective and mystery stories ‡v Young adult literature.
.
Individual Characters -- If the work prominently features a real person, a legendary character, other major
character not created by the author of the work assign a subject heading for the name of the character with
appropriate subdivision such as – Fiction.
If the primary character is a fictitious character created by the author, assign a subject heading only if the
character appears in three or more wore works. Consider the character to appear prominently if it is
integral to the story line, if the name is included either in the title or a series-like statement, or if there is a
possibility that patrons may seek the work based on the character.
Classes of persons -- A heading may also be assigned for the class of persons to which the primary
character belongs, if that class of persons is established and is likely to be sought by the typical public
library user., for example, women detectives, College teachers, Private investigators. , Domestics, etc.
Setting -- Assign a subject heading for a place, event, or time period that is featured prominently in an
individual work., or when it is judged to be important for retrieval. Assign these headings only if the
place or time is significant. Generally do not assign headings for a time period that is contemporaneous
to the period in which the work was written, for example, do not express the 19th century setting of a work
that was written in the 19th century. Generally do not assign a heading for the country in which the work
is set, when that country corresponds to the country in which the author lives. Assign a subject for an
JUVENILE FICTION Young Adult Fiction
98 December 2, 2011
imaginary place or organization only if the place appears in three or more works. Fictitious places
generally use the parenthetical qualifier (Imaginary place).
If other editions of a title exist in the database, copy those headings to the bibliographic record. Another
source of possible subject headings is bibliographic records for sound recordings of the title in hand,
either on SIRSI or OCLC if they are not readily available on the print record.
Guidelines for deleting the United States subdivision
Instances where you leave in the subdivision in all formats and levels:
A complete subdivision phrase: ‡z United States ‡x States
Biographical subject headings: 650 0 Artists ‡z France ‡x Biography ‡v Young adult literature.
When the biography is about a person who lives in the United States, you may delete the United States
from the 650 field.
History subject headings: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡x History ‡v Young adult literature.
Foreign relation documents such as treaties or other documents that display reciprocal agreements
between the United States and another country.
Travel: Example: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡v Guidebooks ‡v Young adult literature.
If a topic heading with a sub-field ‡z United States is a cross-reference to one or more headings in our
local system, keep the subdivision in the heading.
Otherwise the subdivision ‡z United States can be deleted from all other topical headings (650 indicators
blank 0). If possible, avoid using ‡z United States for fiction headings. You should instead use the state
or the city/state geographical sub-division. State or the city/state geographical field is 651, indicators
blank 0. If in doubt, please consult a cataloger.
NOTICE THIS ONLY PERTAINS TO UNITED STATES AS A SUB-DIVISION IN A 650 FIELD. DO
NOT DELETE UNITED STATES WHEN IT APPEARS AS A 651 ‡a.

SELECTION CRITERIA
Intended audience, 12 years to 15 years of age
To determine whether a “borderline” book is a J or a YA, apply the following criteria:
Look at the age of the characters, if 14 years or older books will be YA
Look at the content. If the book appeals more to YA audience, then it will be YA.
Look at the writing structure. If the book is more sophisticated, than it will be YA.
Look at the author’s previous works. If they are predominately YA, new title will probably be YA also.

Leave out apostrophes and hyphens on cutters, if the total number of characters exceeds 8 characters.
Leave apostrophes and hyphens in, if the total number of characters does not exceed 8 characters.
If the last name contains a space between letters, leave in if the total number of characters does not exceed
8 characters (Example: De Palma). Remove the space to include 8 characters in the cutter (Example:
VanDraan [Van Draanen])—maintain capital letters.
No punctuation except periods following initials.
100 Main Entry
If there are 3 authors, the first one goes in the 100 field. The other 2 go in 700 fields (separate entry for
each author). If there are 4 or more authors, make record a title entry, and list only the first author in a
700 field.
Adapted by
Young adult fiction books that are considered children’s classics and have been “adapted by”
another author should have the original author of the work as the main entry. The person who
adapted the work will be a 700 entry. This rule only applies to juvenile fiction and not adult
fiction.
For adapted works the 245 field should reflect what is on the title page.
245 Title Statement
Numbered Series
The series number is to be added for all youth books which are part of a numbered series. The
number goes in the 245 field subfield h. They symbol for number (#) is to be used in all cases.
No space between the symbol for number (e.g. #9) and the number.
Example: 245 10 Understand the unknown ‡h [#10] / ‡c K. A. Applegate
Check Children’s Series guidelines to determine if a series is to be double cuttered.
“n” subfield in the 245 field
The n subfield generally occurs in 245 fields when the a subfield of the 245 is not unique and the
only difference is numbering which does not signify a part.
When an h subfield is necessary, it follows the n subfield, but precedes the b subfield. Since the
numbering is in the n subfield, it is unnecessary to enter the numbering in the h subfield.
JUVENILE FICTION Young Adult Mystery
103 December 2, 2011
For searching and formatting for the hit list, the contents of the n subfield should be standardized
for the titles within a run. The volume number in the subfield n is included in the call number in
the 092 field and is formatted according to the instructions in the Volume field guidelines.
Example
245 10 Id entity. ‡n Vol. 1

p subfield in the 245 field
One configuration is an a subfield with a non-unique title and a unique subtitle in a p subfield of
the original OCLC record. Graphic novel series and television series are some of the materials
that may have this configuration of title.
When an h subfield is necessary, it follows the p subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield. Refer
to the appropriate sections of the manual for the current configuration of titles with this subfield.
4XX Series
Ignore the presence or absence of series in determining whether the item matches a record.
4XX/8XX Series
Verify if the series authority record for series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed. Edit or add the 8XX field to match
the authority record. Place all titles in a fiction series in the same genre (e.g. Fiction, Mystery, Science
fiction).
If the authority record says “use as quoted note”, change the 4XX/8XX fields to a single 500 note field.
Leave all series in a record.
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second indicator
blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
A JCL cataloguer will add an authority record, make changes to the bibliographic record as necessary
and remove 490 0 SERIES.

6XX SUBJECT ACCESS
General Principles
The assignment of subject headings to individual works of fiction is intended to provide the average

Do NOT use AC subject headings. Change to Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH)
with form subdivisions. Consult the “Common AC headings and their LCSH counterparts” list,
and check SIRSI for proper form of subject headings.
Headings should be assigned only as they come readily to mind after a superficial review of the work
being cataloged.
Whenever possible, make the subject headings match between multiple records for the same title.
Use LCSH headings with second indicator of 0 for 600, 610, 630, 650, 651 fields
Delete all subject-heading fields with second indicators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
A minimum of one subject heading is required for all items. Two to four subject headings are preferred.
If record has only 2 subject headings, JCL prefers only one be a genre heading.
Form/genre headings indicate what the work is rather than what it is about. Select an appropriate genre
heading or headings, such as Love stories; Science fiction, Mystery fiction, War stories, etc. Generally
assign no more than one or two genre headings, expressing only the primary genre(s) of the work.
Use genre headings from Guidelines on Subject Access to Individual Works of Fiction, drama, etc. , 2nd

.
Individual Characters -- If the work prominently features a real person, a legendary character, other major
character not created by the author of the work assign a subject heading for the name of the character with
appropriate subdivision such as – Fiction.
If the primary character is a fictitious character created by the author, assign a subject heading only if the
character appears in three or more wore works. Consider the character to appear prominently if it is
integral to the story line, if the name is included either in the title or a series-like statement, or if there is a
possibility that patrons may seek the work based on the character.
Classes of persons -- A heading may also be assigned for the class of persons to which the primary
character belongs, if that class of persons is established and is likely to be sought by the typical public
library user., for example, women detectives, College teachers, Private investigators. , Domestics, etc.
Setting -- Assign a subject heading for a place, event, or time period that is featured prominently in an
individual work., or when it is judged to be important for retrieval. Assign these headings only if the
place or time is significant. Generally do not assign headings for a time period that is contemporaneous

imaginary place or organization only if the place appears in three or more works. Fictitious places
generally use the parenthetical qualifier (Imaginary place).
If other editions of a title exist in the database, copy those headings to the bibliographic record. Another
source of possible subject headings is bibliographic records for sound recordings of the title in hand,
either on SIRSI or OCLC if they are not readily available on the print record.
Guidelines for deleting the United States subdivision
Instances where you leave in the subdivision in all formats and levels:
A complete subdivision phrase: ‡z United States ‡x States
Biographical subject headings: 650 0 Artists ‡z France ‡x Biography ‡v Young adult literature.
When the biography is about a person who lives in the United States, you may delete the United States
from the 650 field.
History subject headings: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡x History ‡v Young adult literature.
Foreign relation documents such as treaties or other documents that display reciprocal agreements
between the United States and another country.
Travel: Example: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡v Guidebooks ‡v Young adult literature.
If a topic heading with a sub-field ‡z United States is a cross-reference to one or more headings in our
local system, keep the subdivision in the heading.
Otherwise the subdivision ‡z United States can be deleted from all other topical headings (650 indicators
blank 0). If possible, avoid using ‡z United States for fiction headings. You should instead use the state
or the city/state geographical sub-division. State or the city/state geographical field is 651, indicators
blank 0. If in doubt, please consult a cataloger.
NOTICE THIS ONLY PERTAINS TO UNITED STATES AS A SUB-DIVISION IN A 650 FIELD. DO
NOT DELETE UNITED STATES WHEN IT APPEARS AS A 651 ‡a.

POLICY:
These are works aimed at an audience in their teens.
The prefix for this collection will be assigned by the Children's Selector.
SELECTION CRITERIA
Intended audience, 12 years to 15 years of age
To determine whether a “borderline” book is a J or a YA, apply the following criteria:
Look at the age of the characters, if 14 years or older books will be YA
Look at the content. If the book appeals more to YA audience, then it will be YA.
Look at the writing structure. If the book is more sophisticated, then it will be YA.
Look at the author’s previous works. If they are predominately YA, new title will probably be YA also.

Numerals as cutters: spell out.
Initials in cutters: do not leave spaces between initials, such Stine R.L.
Leave out apostrophes and hyphens on cutters, if the total number of characters exceeds 8 characters.
Leave apostrophes and hyphens in, if the total number of characters does not exceed 8 characters.
If the last name contains a space between letters, leave in if the total number of characters does not exceed
8 characters (Example: De Palma). Remove the space to include 8 characters in the cutter (Example:
VanDraan [Van Draanen])—maintain capital letters.
No punctuation except periods following initials.
100 Main Entry
If there are 3 authors, the first one goes in the 100 field. The other 2 go in 700 fields, separate
entry for each author). If there are 4 or more authors, make record a title entry, and list only the
first author in a 700 field.
Adapted by
Young adult fiction books that are considered children’s classics and have been “adapted by”
another author should have the original author of the work as the main entry. The person who
adapted the work will be a 700 entry. This rule only applies to juvenile fiction and not adult
fiction. The 245 fields for adapted works should reflect what is on the title page.
245 Title Statement
Numbered Series
The series number is to be added for all youth books which are part of a numbered series. The
number goes in the 245 field subfield h. They symbol for number (#) is to be used in all cases.
No space between the symbol for number (e.g. #9) and the number.
Example: 245 10 Understand the unknown ‡h [#10] / ‡c K. A. Applegate
Check Children’s Series guidelines to determine if a series is to be double cuttered.
“n” subfield in the 245 field
The n subfield generally occurs in 245 fields when the a subfield of the 245 is not unique and the
only difference is numbering which does not signify a part.
When an h subfield is necessary, it follows the n subfield, but precedes the b subfield. Since the
numbering is in the n subfield, it is unnecessary to enter the numbering in the h subfield.
For searching and formatting for the hit list, the contents of the n subfield should be standardized
for the titles within a run. The volume number in the subfield n is included in the call number in
the 092 field and is formatted according to the instructions in the Volume field guidelines.

The p subfield displays in iBistro, but not in Workflows.
One configuration is an a subfield with a non-unique title and a unique subtitle in a p subfield of
the original OCLC record. Graphic novel series and television series are some of the materials
that may have this configuration of title.
When an h subfield is necessary, it follows the p subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield. Refer
to the appropriate sections of the manual for the current configuration of titles with this subfield.
4XX Series
Ignore the presence or absence of series in determining whether the item matches a record.
4XX/8XX Series
Verify if the series authority record for series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed. Edit or add the 8XX field to match
the authority record. Place all titles in a fiction series in the same genre (e.g. Fiction, Mystery, Science
fiction).
If the authority record says “use as quoted note”, change the 4XX/8XX fields to a single 500 note field.
Leave all series in a record.
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second indicator
blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
A JCL cataloguer will add an authority record, make changes to the bibliographic record as necessary
and remove 490 0 SERIES.
Volume Numbers – “v:” subfield
Add numbering of volume, if available in subfield “v” to 490 and 8XX fields.

The 490 is a descriptive field and should match the wording available for the series statement.
First indicator is 0, second indicator blank
Example: 490 0 Heiress in London ;|v02
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi or OCLC, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second
indicator blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record. Series with no authority record will remain
in the bibliographic record as a 490 with first indicator 0. Once an authorized series authority record is
entered, the 490 0 SERIES will be deleted and series notes will be edited to match the form in the
authority record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
490/800 fields
Verify if the series authority record for a series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed on the book. Edit or add the 8XX
field to match the authorized heading. If there is one series title that covers all publishers and formats, use
that series heading in all existing records. If there are multiple series authority records for different
formats or different publishers use the specific series for the matching format or publisher when available.
In 490 field, the first indicator is 1; second indicator blank.
In the 800 field, the first indicator is usually 1, second indicator is blank. Example: 490 1 Baby-sitters little sister ;|v#45
800 1 Martin, Ann M.,|d1955- |tBabysitters little sister ;|v#45.
490/830 fields
Verify if the series authority record for a series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed on the book. Edit or add the 8XX
field to match the authorized heading. If there is one series title that covers all publishers and formats, use
that series heading in all existing records. If there are multiple series authority records for different
formats or different publishers use the specific series for the matching format or publisher when available.
In 490 field, the first indicator is 1; second indicator blank.

6XX SUBJECT ACCESS
General Principles
The assignment of subject headings to individual works of fiction is intended to provide the average
public library user with an additional method of selecting recreational reading.
Do NOT use AC subject headings. Change to Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH)
with form subdivisions. Consult the “Common AC headings and their LCSH counterparts” list,
and check SIRSI for proper form of subject headings.
Headings should be assigned only as they come readily to mind after a superficial review of the work
being cataloged.
Whenever possible, make the subject headings match between multiple records for the same title.
Use LCSH headings with second indicator of 0 for 600, 610, 630, 650, 651 fields
Delete all subject-heading fields with second indicators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
A minimum of one subject heading is required for all items. Two to four subject headings are preferred.
If record has only 2 subject headings, JCL prefers only one be a genre heading.
Form/genre headings indicate what the work is rather than what it is about. Select an appropriate genre
heading or headings, such as Love stories; Science fiction, Mystery fiction, War stories, etc. Generally
assign no more than one or two genre headings, expressing only the primary genre(s) of the work.
Use genre headings from Guidelines on Subject Access to Individual Works of Fiction, drama, etc. , 2nd
ed.
Genre Headings in Preferred Format. Change subdivision to Young adult literature as appropriate
Add Young adult literature to all 650 genre terms including but not exclusive to:
650 0 Adventure stories ‡v Young adult literature.
650 0 Alternative histories (Fiction) Young adult literature.

Topical Access -- Assign headings for specific topics that are the focal point of an individual literary
work. Assign headings only for topics that have been made explicit by the author or publisher, such as
those topics that are mentioned in the title, series, introductory matter, dust jacket or other prominent
location. The purpose of the topical heading is to provide access for those topics that distinguish the work
from most other works. Do not assign headings for vague and general topics, such as fate, evil, belief,
psychology, interpersonal relations, emotions, social customs or community life. Assign only the most
specific heading that is appropriate. Normally no more than one or two topical headings need to be
assigned. Topical headings will have the subdivisions “Juvenile fiction” or “Young adult fiction” as
appropriate.
650 0 White, Blanche (Fictitious character) ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 African American women ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 Women detectives ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 Caterers and catering ‡v Young adult fiction.
651 0 North Carolina ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 Detective and mystery stories ‡v Young adult literature.
.
Individual Characters -- If the work prominently features a real person, a legendary character, other major
character not created by the author of the work assign a subject heading for the name of the character with
appropriate subdivision such as – Fiction.
If the primary character is a fictitious character created by the author, assign a subject heading only if the
character appears in three or more wore works. Consider the character to appear prominently if it is
integral to the story line, if the name is included either in the title or a series-like statement, or if there is a
possibility that patrons may seek the work based on the character.
Classes of persons -- A heading may also be assigned for the class of persons to which the primary
character belongs, if that class of persons is established and is likely to be sought by the typical public
library user., for example, women detectives, College teachers, Private investigators. , Domestics, etc.
Setting -- Assign a subject heading for a place, event, or time period that is featured prominently in an
individual work., or when it is judged to be important for retrieval. Assign these headings only if the
place or time is significant. Generally do not assign headings for a time period that is contemporaneous
to the period in which the work was written, for example, do not express the 19th century setting of a work
that was written in the 19th century. Generally do not assign a heading for the country in which the work
is set, when that country corresponds to the country in which the author lives. Assign a subject for an
imaginary place or organization only if the place appears in three or more works. Fictitious places
generally use the parenthetical qualifier (Imaginary place).

If other editions of a title exist in the database, copy those headings to the bibliographic record. Another
source of possible subject headings is bibliographic records for sound recordings of the title in hand,
either on SIRSI or OCLC if they are not readily available on the print record.
Guidelines for deleting the United States subdivision
Instances where you leave in the subdivision in all formats and levels:
A complete subdivision phrase: ‡z United States ‡x States
Biographical subject headings: 650 0 Artists ‡z France ‡x Biography ‡v Young adult literature.
When the biography is about a person who lives in the United States, you may delete the United States
from the 650 field.
History subject headings: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡x History ‡v Young adult literature.
Foreign relation documents such as treaties or other documents that display reciprocal agreements
between the United States and another country.
Travel: Example: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡v Guidebooks ‡v Young adult literature.
If a topic heading with a sub-field ‡z United States is a cross-reference to one or more headings in our
local system, keep the subdivision in the heading.
Otherwise the subdivision ‡z United States can be deleted from all other topical headings (650 indicators
blank 0). If possible, avoid using ‡z United States for fiction headings. You should instead use the state
or the city/state geographical sub-division. State or the city/state geographical field is 651, indicators

Young Adult Graphic Novels
POLICY
There will be YA and adult graphic novels--fiction and nonfiction.

No excessive evidence of graphic depiction of sex.
Straight forward plot.
RESPONSIBILITY
Graphic novels can be considered works of mixed responsibility.
For works that have been adapted to the graphic fiction format use the name of the adapter as the main
entry with an author title entry for the original work. (AACR2, Revised Chapters 21.8-21.10A).
Example: City of glass ‡h[graphic] / ‡c Paul Auster ; adaptation by Paul Karasik
and David Mazzucchelli ; new introduction by Art Spiegelman. Main entry under
Paul Karasik with an a added entry for Paul Auster and David Mazzucchelli.
For works listing the original author and a translator who may or may not have adapted the text, use the
original author as the main entry, especially if the original author is listed in the chief source of
information as the first author listed. Make the translator/adapter an added entry.
Example: The wallflower. ‡n 8 ‡h [graphic] / ‡c Tomoko Hayakawa ; translated and adapted by
David Ury ; lettered by Dana Hayward.

LABELS
If we already own titles in a series, and we order additional tiles of the same series,

If the last name contains a space between letters, leave in if the total number of characters does not exceed
8 characters (Example: De Palma). Remove the space to include 8 characters in the cutter (Example:
VanDraan [Van Draanen])—maintain capital letters.
No punctuation except periods following initials.
Nonfiction graphic novels use only author surname for call number
Double Cutters for Fiction Graphic Novels
If there is more than one series, double cutter the books with the title of the main series. If in doubt about
which series is the main one, please check with the selector.
Example: Star Wars has several sub-series: X-Wing, Rogue Squadron, Droids,
Underworld. These books are all to be double cuttered
STARWARS (the main series)
For books in the same series, but with multiple authors, double cutter with the main series.
For books with a main character, double cutter with the name of the main character rather than the series.
Example: Spider-man has several sub-series: Amazing Spider-man,
Ultimate Spider-man, Peter Parker Spider-man will all be
cuttered SPIDERMA.
Adding Volume Number
Add the volume number to this field when books all have the same title and a volume number, and no
other subtitle
If the graphic novel does not conform to any conditions listed, please contact a JCL cataloger.
100 Personal Name
Books can have the author, creator, adaptor, or artist as a main entry.
If the author’s name appears only on the cover of the book, assume this is the main entry.
245 Title Statement
All graphic novels will have a GMD subfield “h” of graphic.
JUVENILE FICTION Young Adult GRAPHIC NOVEL
124 December 2, 2011
Example: $h [graphic]
Non unique title: When cataloging a group of books that all have the same title and no other subtitle
except for a number, enter the number in a subfield “n” and not in a subfield “h”.
Example: 245 10 Akira. ‡n Book 6 ‡h [graphic] / ‡c Katsuhiro Otomo.
If the series title is in the 245 subfield “a” is the same as the 440 series entry, you need to have
the title in both fields, even though they are the same title.
Unique title: Use subfield “h” for the series number, when the subfield “a” in the 245 contains a unique
title and has a numbered series.
Example: 245 10 Itachi’s power |h[graphic #17]
246 3 Naruto. ǂn Vol. 17, ‡p Itachi’s power
490 0 Naruto ;|v v.17
“n” subfield in the 245 field
The “n” subfield generally occurs in 245 fields when the “a” subfield of the 245 is not unique
and the only difference is numbering, which does not signify a part.
When an “h” subfield is necessary, it follows the “n” subfield, but precedes the “b” subfield.
Since the numbering is in the “n” subfield, it is unnecessary to enter the numbering in the “h”
subfield.
For searching and formatting for the hit list, the contents of the “n” subfield should be
standardized for the titles within a run. The volume number in the subfield “n” is included in the
call number in the 092 field and is formatted according to the instructions in the Volume field
guidelines.
Example
245 10 Id entity. ‡n Vol. 1
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 2
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 3
245 10 Id_entity. ‡n Vol. 4
p subfield in the 245 field
One configuration is an “a” subfield with a non-unique title and a unique subtitle in a “p”
subfield of the original OCLC record. For graphic novels, change the unique title in the “p”
subfield to the “a” subfield of the 245 field.
JUVENILE FICTION Young Adult GRAPHIC NOVEL
125 December 2, 2011
The non-unique title and any volume numbering are entered in the 246 added title field. The
non-unique title is entered as a series title in the 490 field.
OCLC example: 245 10 Naruto. ǂn Vol. 17, ǂp Itachi's power / ǂc story and art by Masashi
Kishimoto
Sirsi example: 245 10 Itachi’s power |h[graphic #17]
246 3 Naruto. ǂn Vol. 17, ǂp Itachi’s power
490 0 Naruto ; ǂv v.17
4XX/8XX Series
Verify if the series authority record for series title exists in the catalog. If there is an authority record in
Sirsi, the 490 field should be a transcription of the series as displayed. Edit or add the 8XX field to match
the authority record. Place all titles in a fiction series in the same genre (e.g. Fiction, Mystery, Science
fiction).
If the authority record says “use as quoted note”, change the 4XX/8XX fields to a single 500 note field.
Leave all series in a record.
If there is no series authority record available in Sirsi, add a 490 field, first indicator 0, second indicator
blank, subfield “a” SERIES to bibliographic record.
Example: 490 0 SERIES
A JCL cataloguer will add an authority record, make changes to the bibliographic record as necessary
and remove 490 0 SERIES.
Volume Numbers – “v:” subfield
Add numbering of volume, if available in subfield “v” to 490 and 8XX fields.
Example: 490 1 The Californians ; ‡v bk. 4
800 1 Wick, Lori. ‡t Californians ; ‡v bk. 4.
Multiple series entries are possible.
If there is more than one author for a series, double cutter the books with the title of the main series.
If in doubt, please check with the selector or cataloger.
Add a series note for the main series and any sub-series.
490 only
The 490 is a descriptive field and should match the wording available for the series statement.
First indicator is 0, second indicator blank
JUVENILE FICTION Young Adult GRAPHIC NOVEL
126 December 2, 2011
Example: 490 0 Californians ; ‡v bk. 4
490/830 fields
In 490 field, the first indicator is 1; second indicator blank.
In the 830 field, the first indicator is blank, second indicator is 0.
Example: 490 1 Star wars 830 0 Star wars (Bantam Books (Firm)
490/800 fields
In 490 field, the first indicator is 1; second indicator blank.
In the 800 field, the first indicator is usually 1, second indicator is blank.
Example: 490 1 The Californians ; ‡v bk. 4 800 1 Wick, Lori. ‡t Californians ; ‡v bk. 4.
For example Star Wars books could have a series of Star Wars and an additional series note for
the sub-series X-Wing.
Double cutter with the main series, if the books are a sub series of a larger series
Series titles may be based on the name of the main character.
Examples Star Wars has several sub-series: X-Wing, Rogue Squadron, Droids, and
Underworld. These books are all double cuttered STARWARS.
Spider-man has several sub-series: Amazing Spider-man, Ultimate Spider-man, Peter Parker
Spider-man will all be cuttered SPIDERMA.
If the title is in the 245 subfield a, and the series title are the same, there has to be a 490 series
entry.
Example: 245 10 Akira. ‡n Book 6 ‡h [juvenile graphic] / ‡c Katsuhiro Otomo.
490 0 Akira ; ‡v bk. 6

6XX SUBJECT ACCESS
All YA graphic novels will have a 650 as follows:
650 0 Graphic novels ‡v Young adult literature.
All topical headings, including “Fictitious character”, will have the subdivision ‡v Young adult fiction for
graphic fiction titles.
Delete the subject headings which include Comic books, strips, etc as part of the main heading from
works of fiction.
Ex. Romance comic books, strips, etc.
Retain the subdivision Comic book, strips, etc. only for non-fiction graphic titles and add ‡v Young
adult literature.
General Principles
The assignment of subject headings to individual works of fiction is intended to provide the average public library
user with an additional method of selecting recreational reading.
Do NOT use AC subject headings. Change to Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH)
with form subdivisions. Consult the “Common AC headings and their LCSH counterparts” list,
and check SIRSI for proper form of subject headings. Headings should be assigned only as they come readily to mind after a superficial review of the work being
cataloged.
Whenever possible, make the subject headings match between multiple records for the same title.
Use LCSH headings with second indicator of 0 for 600, 610, 630, 650, 651 fields
Delete all subject-heading fields with second indicators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
A minimum of one subject heading is required for all items. Two to four subject headings are preferred.
If record has only 2 subject headings, JCL prefers only one be a genre heading.
Form/genre headings indicate what the work is rather than what it is about. Select an appropriate genre
heading or headings, such as Love stories; Science fiction, Mystery fiction, War stories, etc. Generally
assign no more than one or two genre headings, expressing only the primary genre(s) of the work.
Use genre headings from Guidelines on Subject Access to Individual Works of Fiction, drama, etc. , 2nd
ed.
Genre Headings in Preferred Format. Change subdivision to Young adult literature as appropriate

Topical Access -- Assign headings for specific topics that are the focal point of an individual literary
work. Assign headings only for topics that have been made explicit by the author or publisher, such as
those topics that are mentioned in the title, series, introductory matter, dust jacket or other prominent
location. The purpose of the topical heading is to provide access for those topics that distinguish the work
from most other works. Do not assign headings for vague and general topics, such as fate, evil, belief,
psychology, interpersonal relations, emotions, social customs or community life. Assign only the most
specific heading that is appropriate. Normally no more than one or two topical headings need to be
assigned. Topical headings will have the subdivisions “Juvenile fiction” or “Young adult fiction” as
appropriate.
650 0 White, Blanche (Fictitious character) ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 African American women ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 Women detectives ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 Caterers and catering ‡v Young adult fiction.
651 0 North Carolina ‡v Young adult fiction.
650 0 Detective and mystery stories ‡v Young adult literature.
.
Individual Characters -- If the work prominently features a real person, a legendary character, other major
character not created by the author of the work assign a subject heading for the name of the character with
appropriate subdivision such as – Fiction.
If the primary character is a fictitious character created by the author, assign a subject heading only if the
character appears in three or more wore works. Consider the character to appear prominently if it is
JUVENILE FICTION Young Adult GRAPHIC NOVEL
129 December 2, 2011
integral to the story line, if the name is included either in the title or a series-like statement, or if there is a
possibility that patrons may seek the work based on the character.
Classes of persons -- A heading may also be assigned for the class of persons to which the primary
character belongs, if that class of persons is established and is likely to be sought by the typical public
library user. for example, women detectives, College teachers, Private investigators. , Domestics, etc.
Setting -- Assign a subject heading for a place, event, or time period that is featured prominently in an
individual work., or when it is judged to be important for retrieval. Assign these headings only if the
place or time is significant. Generally do not assign headings for a time period that is contemporaneous
to the period in which the work was written, for example, do not express the 19th century setting of a work
that was written in the 19th century. Generally do not assign a heading for the country in which the work
is set, when that country corresponds to the country in which the author lives. Assign a subject for an
imaginary place or organization only if the place appears in three or more works. Fictitious places
generally use the parenthetical qualifier (Imaginary place).
If other editions of a title exist in the database, copy those headings to the bibliographic record. Another
source of possible subject headings is bibliographic records for sound recordings of the title in hand,
either on SIRSI or OCLC if they are not readily available on the print record.
Guidelines for deleting the United States subdivision
Instances where you leave in the subdivision in all formats and levels:
A complete subdivision phrase: ‡z United States ‡x States
Biographical subject headings: 650 0 Artists ‡z France ‡x Biography ‡v Young adult literature.
When the biography is about a person who lives in the United States, you may delete the United States
from the 650 field.
History subject headings: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡x History ‡v Young adult literature.
Foreign relation documents such as treaties or other documents that display reciprocal agreements
between the United States and another country.
Travel: Example: 650 0 Cities and towns ‡z United States ‡v Guidebooks ‡v Young adult literature.
If a topic heading with a sub-field ‡z United States is a cross-reference to one or more headings in our
local system, keep the subdivision in the heading.
Otherwise the subdivision ‡z United States can be deleted from all other topical headings (650 indicators
blank 0). If possible, avoid using ‡z United States for fiction headings. You should instead use the state
or the city/state geographical sub-division. State or the city/state geographical field is 651, indicators
blank 0. If in doubt, please consult a cataloger.
NOTICE THIS ONLY PERTAINS TO UNITED STATES AS A SUB-DIVISION IN A 650 FIELD. DO
NOT DELETE UNITED STATES WHEN IT APPEARS AS A 651 ‡a.

POLICY
The Bilingual collection includes Adult and juvenile (E, J, and YA) books with text in both a
foreign language and English. Books with the majority of text in English are not considered part
of the Bilingual collection. Only materials with equal English and foreign language translation,
in sentence formats, are considered. Materials highlighting individual words are not considered.
Past policy:
The majority of the collection was part of the Spanish collection, which includes adult and
juvenile books, periodicals, government documents, videos, and DVDs. The Spanish collection
is located at the Cedar Roe, Oak Park, De Soto, and Antioch branches. Only Cedar Roe receives
the Government depository documents in Spanish, per the Government Documents librarian and
Collections staff.
OCLC Searching
When searching for records on OCLC and SIRSI, use the same search strategies you would use
for material in English. ISBN searches are most productive.
