Table of Contents
Monograph Parts enables you to differentiate between parts of monographs or other multi-part items. This feature enables catalogers to describe items more precisely by labeling the parts of an item. For example, catalogers might identify the parts of a monograph or the discs of a DVD set. This feature also allows patrons more flexibility when placing holds on multi-part items. A patron could place a hold on a specific disc of a DVD set if they want to access a specific season or episode rather than an entire series.

Add a volume and copy. To add a volume and copy to your workstation library, click the Add Volumes button in the Record Summary area above the tabs.
To add a volume and copy to your workstation library or other libraries, click the Holdings View tab, right-click the appropriate library, and choose Add → Volumes and Copies.
Choose the part label from the Part drop down menu.
Apply a template to the copies, or edit fields in the Working Copies section below.
When all copies have been stored and reviewed, click "Save & Exit".
If you are only making one set of changes, you can simply click Save & Exit and skip the Store Selected stage.
