5. Cutter Codes
Rules
·
Use 3-letter cutters for places
before the creator cutter, if applicable to the subject of the book and not
already reflected in the class designator.
o
Check Place Cutter Codes for common cutters.
·
Use 3-letter cutters for the
creator, whether person, organisation, or corporation.
o
In cases of multiple authors,
choose the first author only.
o
For organisations and
corporations, check Entity Cutter Codes
for common cutters.
·
In large creator/place areas,
use format cutters to keep call numbers unique.
·
After the applicable cutters,
use the most current date of publication found on the copyright page or
elsewhere.
·
Use volume numbers for sets by
the same author.
o
Only use volume numbers for
sets on the same topic, published in the same year, by the same creator.
Example: a series about Metis history by Eccles would be CU ECC 2005 1, CU ECC
2005 2, etc.
o
In the event of a multi-volume
set on the same topic with the same publication year but with different authors,
do not use volume numbers. Use alpha notations to distinguish any volumes of
the set written by the same author.
Example: a series about Metis history where volume 1 is by Eccles and volumes 2
and 3 are by Jamieson would be CU ECC 2005, CU JAM 2005a, CU JAM 2005b
People Cutters
Individuals
·
3 characters – First 3 letters of the author’s
last name
·
For anthologies or works with no primary author,
use the first 3 letters of the first editor’s last name
Entities
(Institutions, Organizations, Corporations, Government, Events)
·
3 characters – See Entity Cutter Codes for authorized form of names & common cutters
·
For entities not listed in the spreadsheet,
first check the catalogue for other publications by them. Use the same cutter
code as has already been entered
·
If there are no previous publications by the entity,
use the conventions found on the Entity Cutter
Codes to create a new cutter code for the entity. These do not have to be
unique to each entity, but they cannot be the same code as the major entities
listed in Entity Cutter Codes.
·
In general, use organizations/publishers rather
than individual authors for common First Nations organizations & government
bodies
