Because of the way the serials module works, and because periodical call numbers almost always need a call number analytic designating the part, periodicals have their own special rules & patterns for the construction of call number analytics.

Primary source of date: Masthead.

Other sources: Cover, spine, running date on pages.

Holds: Any variation in the text of the volume field of call numbers on the same bibliographic record (space/no space, punctuation, extra text, etc.) will cause the system to assume that the call numbers represent different volumes. This affects patrons who are trying to place holds.

However, case does not matter in this field. For example:

Vol. 1 and vol. 1 are a match Vol 1 and Vol. 1 do not match (punctuation) Vol.1 and Vol. 1 do not match (space) Vol. 1 and v. 1 do not match (different text)

The following standard prefixes, chronology and suffixes are used in this form for entering periodicals and their dates, whether items are created in the Serials Module or created in the Cataloging Module.

Examples:

Type Analytic prefix/suffix Example
Issue Issue (Issue 49)
Number No. (No. 3)
Part Pt. (Pt. 2)
Supplement Suppl. Supplement (June 2018)
Volume V. V. 1
January Jan. (Jan. 2019)
February Feb. (Feb. 2019)
March Mar. (Mar. 2019)
April Apr. (Apr. 2019)
May May (May 2019)
June June (June 2019)
July July (July 2019)
August Aug. (Aug. 2019)
September Sep. (Sep. 2018)
October Oct. (Oct. 2018)
November Nov. (Nov. 2018)
December Dec. (Dec. 2018)
Spring Spr (Spr 2019)
Summer Sum (Sum 2019)
Autumn or Fall Aut (Aut 2018)
Winter Win (Win 2018)

When creating predictions, please refer to the publisher's block containing the ISSN for issues to be skipped or combined issues or supplement issues. Note: This information may be different each year.

Additional notes

Art in America Annual Guide issue
(Cover date: Annual Guide 2005/2006; masthead date: August 2005) Issue date would be Aug. 2005. In the "Public" note of the copy record you may indicate this is the Annual Guide 2005/2006).
US News and World Report Best Graduate School issue
This is the regular weekly issue with a date, not a special issue. In the "Public" note of the copy record you may indicate this is the Best Graduate School issue.
Moo Cow Fan Club Newsletter
There is no date on the magazine just an issue number. Therefore, the call number analytic is: ISSUE 28

When using the serials module, some periodicals, such as Woman's Day and Family Circle, are difficult to predict. Therefore, it is recommended that the pattern should be "Completely Irregular." Each time the magazine is checked in, create the issue using Tools - 'Add Issue / Part.
