Encoding Tags – Microfilms, Maps and Posters

Peter K has adjusted the MARC Media Format parameters on the “Encode Tag” function so that they include microforms. Note that microforms are not a separate format, but are included in either the books or serials format. So when encoding microforms you needs to either encode the tag as a book or serial.

He has also added two other formats that can be used:
Maps & Other Cartographic Material
Posters, paintings, drawings etc.

Please restart the “Sort Assist” software to ensure this update takes effect.

The instructions on the wiki have been updated to include this info.
