+==== Miscellaneous Problems ====
+♦Make sure call numbers match library location code assigned.  If may occasionally be necessary to change the location in the holdings record or add or delete a location from a call number label.
+♦Books without call number lables are particularly likely to have a mismatch between the book and the record.  You may want to type in the title rather than wanding in the barcode for books without labels, in order to find out if the books is a duplicate to one already in the collection.  A wrong title may be the result of the title being changed at the last minute before publication, or of the wrong record being assigned by Promptcat.
+♦Books with call number labels sometimes arrive with a minimal bibliographic record.  It's a good idea to check for duplicate titles by doing a title search when this happens.
+♦Books that belong to numbered series the library collects on standing order are sometimes sent in error via the Approval Plan as monographs.  Search by series title for any monograph sent that is also part of a numbered series to be sure it's not a duplicate to one coming on standing order.
+♦The first volume of a multi-volume monograph may be sent.  This will need additional attention as you need to find out if other volumes are wanted (create a standing order record) and to add the volume number to the call number label on the book.
+♦Look out for possible reference books sent on approval and not coded with a Reference location.
