Integrating resources
- Integrating resources are classified the same way as monographs
- Determination of what constitutes an integrating resource follows the definition provided in the latest version of AACR2:
- A bibliographic resource that is added to or changed by means of updates that do not remain discrete and are integrated into the whole
- Determine the primary subject and find the corresponding classification number (Cf. Module 4—General Principles)
- All numbers in the NLM Classification may be used for integrating resources
- Like other material in the NLM collection, cutters are not assigned to intangible electronic resources, but are assigned for print
- Cuttering for integrating resources follows monographic cuttering practices
