Oversize Designations for Baker/Berry, Cook, Sherman
There are Oversize and Folio locations for Baker/Berry, Cook and Sherman. For these 3 locations, it will be necessary to use a different location code if the piece you are cataloging exceeds the standard size.
This applies to the stacks locations, and to the East Asian collections as well.
Location assignment will be based on height and width of the piece. Commercial binding and in-house binding can add up to an additional 1.3 cm., thus the different limits for hardbound and softbound volumes.
The dimensions are:
General Stacks
Hardbound: under 32 cm. high
Softbound: under 31 cm. high
Oversize
Hardbound: 32 cm. to 45 cm. high
Softbound: 31 cm. to 45 cm. high
Folio
Hardbound and Softbound: 46 cm. high OR 37 cm. wide
All books 37 cm. wide or wider will be stored in Folio.
