Allylboration of carbonyl compounds / Dennis G. Hall and Hugo Lachance. (OCLC #775406307)

The catalog record for this monograph says that it was originally published as volume 73 of the serial title “Organic reactions”, though I didn’t find that anywhere on the piece! I checked our copy of volume 73, and found that indeed, their contents were nearly identical (except for updated references).

The selector wanted to keep both copies, so I cataloged this one as a separate monograph, using a note (not series statement/added entry) to record the relationship.

Si nous vivions en 1913 / Antoine Prost. (OCLC #878360972)

Did you know that if you update an existing OCLC record by putting a new call number in an 090, that call number won’t be saved in the master record? They do get saved in new records (maybe in records with no other call number?), so I’d been assuming they’d save. For the existing record for this title, I added a complete call number in an 050.

Before I assign a new call number, I always peek into nearby OPACs using OCLC’s “Find in a Library” service; sometimes I find a good call number that may have unintentionally not been shared.

Le collier rouge : roman / Jean-Christophe Rufin. (OCLC #873465083)

This rush book came to me only needing a call number; fortunately, these are pretty straightforward for fiction from an established author. This author has an established class number/cutter in his authority record:

    053 _0 ǂa PQ2678.U357

so I only need to add a cutter for the title (with initial non-filing characters ignored):

    PQ2678.U357 C65 2014
