These codes are to be used in conjunction with the cataloging instructions for the Masha Rudman Childrens Collection Cataloging and Processing.
How to use the chart: The Codes in UPPER CASE in the first column represent a broad category, whereas the Codes in lower case represent a sub-category. (Note that not all broad categories have a sub-category.) When creating the 099 field, retain the category code in CAPS and the subcategory in lower case plus author in upper/lower case as appropriate.
Examples:
The book coded 'bu' for bullying.
099 |a AB |a bu |a [Author] 690 Rudman Collection |x Abuse |x Bullying (categories are in hierarchical order)
The book is coded 'sub' for substance abuse and addiction.
099 |a AB |a sub |a [Author] 690 Rudman Collection |x Abuse |x Substance Abuse and Addiction
The book is coded 'AB' for Abuse.
099 |a AB |a [Author] 690 Rudman Collection |x Abuse
The book is coded 'PRO' for Professional Books.
099 (There is no 099 field for PRO books) 690 |a Rudman Collection |x Professional Books.
The book is coded 'BIO' for Biography.
099 |a BIO |a [Biographical subject] |a [Author} 690 |a Rudman Collection |v Biography
I.E., a book about Jane Addams by Judith Fradin would be:
099 |a BIO |a Addams |a Fradin 690 |a Rudman Collection |v Biography
NOTE: If the BIO subject's or the author's name is a compound surname, use both but split them into two subfields as shown below. Use the dash after the first surname whether or not the author uses one.
099 |a BIO |a Joyner- |a Kersee |a Cohen
EXCEPTIONS: If the author is Joseph Bruchac, Jacqueline Woodson or Jane Yolen, use the following format:
099 |a [AUTHOR'S LAST NAME] |a [Title] (Where [Title] is the first one or two words in the book's title) Example: 099 |a YOLEN |a Dream
For a table which displays the Categories and their sub-categories in alphabetical order, go to Masha Rudman Childrens Collection Hierarchical Codes.
