How can you be sure that the call numbers assigned by Contract Cataloging will not conflict with existing call numbers in my shelflist?

We offer various options for assigning unique call numbers. For example, we can add a workmark (x), or assign only the class number and you can assign the Cutter locally. Or, instead of worrying about duplicate call numbers up front, you can re-Cutter any that conflict after the items are returned to you. Some libraries have decided not to worry about shelflisting anymore, but instead use the barcode number as the unique identifier. Accessing your local online shelflist via the Internet is also possible. If you are concerned about this aspect of contract cataloging, we encourage you to talk with us about available options.
