NEW SHIPPING LIST NUMBER SCHEME

The new depository shipping list number scheme has been generally well re- ceived throughout the library community. The scheme was described in some detail in AD NOTES (Vol. k, No. 13). To elucidate the matter further, we offer the following additional information.

The last paper or microfiche list for each day has a # sign after the shipping list number. You can easily determine the number of paper or microfiche lists issued each day by noting the shipping list with the# sign

after the number for that date. For example, if the number is P831009-6#r you then know that six paper shipping lists were issued on October 9, I983.

The new shipping list number scheme was developed to facilitate document

control, processing operations, and communications in the Depository Library

Program. This new scheme is a marked improvement over the former numbering

system, but it may take a little time to get used to it.

The Library Programs staff revised and corrected the information published

in the 1983 cumulation of Corrections for Previous Monthly Catalogs which

will be printed in the 1983 Cumulative Index for the Monthly Catalog .

The staff has distributed two new finding aids for the July I976-I980 Cum- ulative Index of the Monthly Catalog . The dividers for the microfiche were designed by Judy Depew, of the Florida State University Library. The microfiche version of the GPO-produced finding aid is also being distributed.

More information about the aids is included on micrographics shipping list

1923, M831103-3.

Please make a correction in the Monthly Catalog Decennial Index, 19 51-1960 , page 2k39- The subject heading "Un-American activities- subversive organizations and publications, guide," lists two entries for 1959 : 1810 and 15202.

Please correct the year to 1957.

Our apologies to Depository Library Council member Jennie B. Cross whose incorrect street address appeared in AD NOTES (Vol. h, No. 16) . Her correct

street address is: 2100 Pontiac Lake Road.

USER'S GUIDE: I98O CENSUS OF POPULATION AND HOUSING

The Library Programs Service has had several questions concerning the distribution of the User's Guide: 1980 Census of Population and Housing . The title was issued by Census and distributed by LPS in three parts. Only the three

publications below were issued. No other parts or supplements exist, although

Part B has sometimes been referred to as a "supplement."

FEDERAL STATISTICAL DIRECTORY

The Federal Statistical Directory, item number 853-A, class number C 1. 75:979 > was distributed in 1979 by the Office of Federal Statistical Policy. This

Office was a part of the Department of Commerce, and was later transferred to

the Office of Management and Budget. The Federal Statistical Directory is now being compiled, published, and sold by a private company; thus, it is not

a Government publication and will no longer be distributed to the depository

libraries
