Item Records for Parts of Incomplete Volumes of Monographic Sets

When fascicules or other parts of incomplete volumes of monographic sets are received Acquisitions will create an item record and add the in process Item Process Status code. Cataloging staff should update contents as appropriate and remove the Item Process Status code. The system assigned barcode should not be replaced.

When the first fascicule is processed in Aleph by Cataloging, item records with system assigned barcodes should be created for any other fascicules associated with incomplete volumes.
