About Cataloging

The teams of the Bibliographic Gateway Services (BGS) Division provide cataloging services in the General Libraries. Cataloging involves the creation and maintenance of EUCLID bibliographic records to provide intellectual and item level access to books, serials, videorecordings, sound recordings, computer software, electronic resources and more. Physical materials are processed and labeled so that they can be shelved and circulated, and materials requiring physical binding are also processed in BGS.

Rush Cataloging of In-Process Material

When you are searching for books and other materials in EUCLID and you locate an IN-PROCESS item that you need quickly, you may request that the item be RUSH cataloged. When viewing the EUCLID record for the IN-PROCESS title, there is a button near the top for REQUEST. Click on that button, which should take you to a menu "Type of Request". The third item in the list is " Rush catalog - In-process & On-order items". When you click on that link, you can enter your user information and other elements for the request. The call number of the IN-PROCESS item should be automatically entered into the request. The online request will be processed via a report and forwarded to BGS for RUSH cataloging. The goal of RUSH cataloging is to have the material ready within 48 hours of the time BGS receives the report. When Circulation receives the fully cataloged title, a notice will be generated and sent to you, the user, indicating that the item is ready for pickup.

Review of EUCLID record (General)

If you see something in a EUCLID bibliographic record that you believe to be incorrect, please provide a full description of the problem to the Database Quality Management Team of BGS.
