DOCLINE -- Additional Holdings Record in a Different Physical Format

Question: How do I add an additional holdings record for holdings in a different physical format?
Answer:

From the Serial Holdings Update screen for the appropriate bibliographic record, do the following:
  1. Click Add Different Format. Respond Yes to confirmation box.

    An "Add" screen displays.

  2. Select the appropriate Retention Policy, Physical Format, Acquisition Status, and input the Holdings information.

  3. Click Add.

Note: If the physical format you select is identical to the physical format for the record that you already report holding, the system will give you an error message and return you to the add screen so that you may select the appropriate physical format and then click Add.
