Music: Scores with parts

If parts are included with the score as a single publication, assign a single barcode to the score. Do not separately barcode the individual parts. Write the call number on each of the parts.

Less commonly, if parts are bound separately, assign one barcode to the score. In addition, assign barcode(s) for the individual part, parts, or folio of parts as needed. Use appropriate volume designation, such as “pts” or “suppl.”

When in doubt, Acquisitions should assign a single barcode. Additional barcodes may be assigned by the music cataloger if it becomes clear that parts should be separate.
