Re: [IUG] "Uncataloged" paperbacks (alternative term question)

[Amy Underwood <underwoa at ohio dot edu>]

We have a similiar collection at Ohio
University-Zanesville/Zane State College. We call it {quot}Leisure
Reading{quot} and it includes both fiction and nonfiction (mostly
self-help stuff). The records are short records and the materials
circulate for a minimal period. We don't lend these items consortially or
via interlibrary loan as we would probably get nothing else done
:-)


HTH,

We receive, on a fairly regular
basis, donations of mass market paperbacks which are minimally processed
and for which we create brief bib records (author and title only) to
which we attach, of course, item records.  We refer to this
collection of titles as the {quot}uncataloged paperbacks,{quot} but they
are not really uncataloged are they if they appear in the opac?  So,
I am wondering if those of you out there who have a similar collection
would be able to suggest a better term than {quot}uncataloged
paperbacks?{quot}  Any suggestions are welcome--
