Today I cataloged 62 more cards of drawer 6 of the sheet music collection project. Row 368's title field - I'm not sure if Independence Day should be capitalized or not (I assumed yes since it's a proper holiday, Jeanette, please let me know if this is incorrect and needs changing). Row 349 had a note saying "Includes U. S. marine air corps version." I'm not sure if marine air corps. needs to be capitalized (it was on the card) or if it belongs in a note field as opposed to some other field but to me it looks like it belongs in the note field and wouldn't need capitalization of those words. Again, Jeanette, please let me know if this is wrong. Everything else was mostly routine; per my comment last week, I've started to put the "arranged by" information in the arranger column/field instead of the 245 statement of responsibility field. Also, the title in row 394 includes words describing the type of music it is "lullaby fox trot" - not sure if this should stay in this field or be moved to the instrumentation or note field. Please let me know if you have any thoughts on this. Thanks!
Hi Shab,
ReplyDeleteRow 368 is correct. My guess would be yes to capitalize U.S. Marine Air Corps and it appears that way on the card, so I adjusted the spreadsheet to match. Please keep the "arranged by" information in the 245 field since that is where it would appear in the MARC record. See the example I printed out that matches that card. Row 394 is fine.
Thanks,
