Call number discrepencies

Sometimes the call number on a bound volume does not match the SuDoc call number on the piece. This can happen for several reasons (for instance, items which were taken out of the Docs collection and put into Reference will have LC call numbers on the spine).


Since the SuDoc number is indexed from the BIB record and the barcode number will lead the Shared Storage Facility staff to the item, the decision has been made to ignore the call number discrepancies on the spine.
