Library catalog contains the bibliographic records of all library and audio-visual holdings including books, magazines and serials, films and videos, interactive media, and other AV materials. The catalog database is also used to produce reports on circulation activity, new acquisitions, and collection information. Records are generally created and maintained electronically and may contain modules for cataloging, serials, reserves, acquisitions, circulation, and community information. The holdings or inventory records, include but are not limited to title, author, subject entries, collection, call number, publication date, price or value, source, and related bibliographic documentation. This record series is used to monitor the status of overdue books and other library materials.
Records document the activities of the reference unit.
