TYPES OF CLAIMS
Claims can be divided into various groupings based on position of issue in the
record, acquisition type, place of publication, location of vendor, etc.
Position of issue in the record: skipped issue and continuation claims
A skipped issue is an issue that has not been received and is situated between
issues that have already been received, thus producing a gap in the holdings.
A continuation problem occurs when no successive issues are received.
Acquisition type
Exchange (ACQ TYPE=x)
Send up to two claims for skipped issue and continuation problems.
Refer problems to the Exchange Division if there is no response after two
claims.
Purchase and Gifts (ACQ TYPEs=p*, s, i, g)
Send up to three claims for skipped issues.
Send up to two claims for continuation problems.
If there is no response to the claims, refer the problems to the Collection
Core Services Division.
(Beginning October 2000, the ACQ TYPE=p will be used for purchase monographs
only. Purchase serials will be assigned ACQ TYPE=s.)
Library of Congress (ACQ TYPE=4)
Do NOT claim skipped issues.
Send up to two claims for continuation problems.
If no response is received after two claims, refer the problem to the Collection
Core Services Division.
