All Book/Monograph records should include 980__a:HEP and 980__a:Book.

Books and Monographs are cataloged similar to proceedings.

If a book has separate self-contained chapters, often written by different authors, create records for the chapters. Monographs should not be split into individual chapters.

 

If the item has an ISBN, add this to 020__a with no hyphens. If there are multiple ISBNs for different formats, you can add them each in a separate 020__a field with the format in 020__b (Print, ebook, Online).

A DOI or HDL for the entire book/monograph goes in 0247_a with 0247_2:DOI or 0247_2:HDL.

Report numbers go in 037__a.

Curate the authors/editors. Use these general instructions for curating HEP titles.

Publication information goes in the 260 field, with subfield ‘a’ as place of publication, subfield ‘b’ the publisher, and subfield ‘c’ the year of publication. If it is part of a series, put the standard full series name in 490__a and the volume number (if applicable) in 490__v. Do this even if the series is in the Journals database.

Number of pages goes in 300__a and abstract (if available) goes in 520__a.

A link to the online version goes in 8564_u.
