Copy Holdings Information

This collection will be classed according to the Library of Congress classification scheme. Each item should be classified as usual. Instead, the collection is maintained separately through the use of a separate location code, sc,rc

Note, however, that as the collection is currently almost entirely uncatalogued, it is shelved in collection order. Items which have brief records online have had a call number of the following type assigned:

RicheCov;coll;no.0014

Some of the fully catalogued items have a full LC call number, but also have a public message similar to the following:

|z Shelved at RicheCov;coll;no.0014
