[Last revised: Feb. 26, 2020 - GLJ]
As of November 1st, 2019, the Metadata Unit will no longer manually add bibliographic notes or affix book plates for main, law, and electronic material purchased on several major endowment funds (listed below). Acquisitions staff will affix book plates as needed, as material is received, including shelf-ready material received from GOBI/YBP. An automated process will periodically add endowment fund notes to the corresponding Bib records.
NOTE: This does NOT include Special Collections material. 561 notes will still be added to this material by Acquisitions and/or Metadata as appropriate. For gift material, notes will continue to be added manually (see the gifts and donations section for further detail).
Although notes related to endowment funds for Main and Law have traditionally been placed in 590, 536 and 730 fields, going forward we will put these notes in the 590 field only. Fiscal year will no longer be recorded. Purchased on endowment fund notes will also no longer be prefixed by library, location, or copy specific information.
