			'''Generic records''' are brief bibliographic records for items that do not require full bibliographic access. Each library makes its own decision regarding the use of generic records. Examples include book bags, puppets, or pamphlets, that will not be allowed to circulate. OCLC records are not required for these items. For material that does need bibliographic access but is of local interest, see the guidelines above for unique local materials.

			* Generic records should be hidden from the public catalog, by unchecking the 'Display in PAC' box of the bibliographic and item records.

			* Identifying your library as part of the title makes it possible for staff to find your records in a hit list:
			{{example\|text=
			245 Algonquin book bag

			245 Winnetka vertical file material}}

			* Other variable fields may be included, but are not required.
