Call numbers are unique designations used to identify and locate physical materials in the library collection. "Call number" is synonymous with shelfmark for Folger purposes (we're trying always to use "call number" these days). See MARC 852 Location for fuller instructions on MARC encoding of all the elements relating to the location of an item. Call numbers are distinct from Accession numbers, but because many derive from six-digit accession numbers, they are easily confused. Changes to call numbers are best avoided, but will be made in exceptional circumstances. See List of call number changes for known updates.

Note that parenthetical shelf size designations like (folio), (flat), (size XS), etc. are considered call number suffixes rather than part of the call number itself, so it's okay to omit them from citations, exhibition labels, the physical item, etc. The suffix is not needed to disambiguate call numbers (unlike "copy 1" and "copy 2") and is subject to change as shelving heights and folder sizes change.

If the item is so imperfect as to be only a fragment, include the word "fragment" in the call number.

"Please consult Reading Room staff"

The boilerplate phrase "Please consult Reading Room staff" appears in Hamnet's Call number field any time the holdings record lacks the subfield "h" in the MARC 852 field. For long-held material, this is usually because of a data error. For recently-acquired material, this is usually because the material hasn't arrived yet, or is still "in process".

Preferred font

When making flags and box labels, prefer Palatino Linotype.

Capitalization, spacing, and punctuation

The examples below are authoritative.

Size designations

General shelving on Decks B and C accommodate the following three sizes: quarto (the default size), folio, and flat (or broadside). These are standardized size designations that should not be confused with bibliographical formats (folio, quarto, octavo, etc.). Sizes are indicated either by the final letter of the call number (for accession books), by the call number itself (for manuscripts and some art, e.g. "V.a. 108" is a quarto-size manuscript, V.b.108 is a folio-size manuscript), or as a parenthetical suffix at the end of the call number (for some art and all other printed books).

  • Quarto: up to and including 30 cm.
  • Folio: 30.1 cm. - 50 cm.; oblong with width 23.1 cm. and up
  • Flat: 50.1 cm. & up; any item whose housing cannot safely hold its weight upright on the shelf.

Parenthetical size designations should be written on flags, but do not need to be written onto the item itself (size designations are subject to change, so the less crossing-out the better).

Writing the call number on the item

Write the call number in an extra soft ("1" or "B") pencil, making sure the point isn't so sharp that it would damage the paper. Do not erase old call numbers: instead, cross them out. If you make a mistake and need to erase, use a non-abrasive eraser (e.g., MagicRub™ or Staedtlar Mars™). The Reading Room uses the location of the written call number as an additional check on its proper location. In vault books, the call number is written at the back of the book; in open stacks books, the call number is written on the verso of the title page. See "Art" and "Manuscripts" sections for more specific information on those types of materials.

Omit the parenthetical size designation from the item itself (but do include it on flags)

Bound volumes

  • Vault: near the upper, outer edge of the inside back cover whenever possible. Otherwise, use any free space where the call number will be conspicuous and won't stress the spine, such as the upper, outer edge of the last page of the book. (Hint for remembering preferred location: needs to be a place that both right-handed and left-handed people can reach easily with a pencil, and needs to be a place that Reading Room staff can check against the flag and call slip without having to open it all the way)
    • When cataloging Sammelbands classified by STC or Wing number, write the corresponding number on the back of each work, in addition to writing the call number for the whole volume at the back of the binding. Care must be taken to distinguish the bibliography number pertaining to a single work from the call number for the whole book.
  • Open stacks: title page verso


Unbound works on paper

  • Broadsides: verso, upper right corner (i.e., "upper outer" if it were the back paste down of a book, to keep printed text procedure the same for bound and unbound)
  • Manuscripts: verso, upper left corner (EB: need to check with Heather. This has varied over the years.)
  • Prints and drawings: back side, lower left corner (i.e., where someone at the desk can easily check the call number by "turning the page" of the mylar insert a bit)


Archives

(Information about archives call numbers to come)

Art

Location of call numbers

Write the call number of an art item:

  • on the back side, lower left corner of the item itself (usually a print or drawing)
  • on the front, lower left corner of its folder

If there are multiple items, write "item 1 of 4," etc., as necessary. Use a soft (No. 1) pencil to write on the item, but a hard (No. 4) pencil to write on the folder.

Write call numbers as follows:

ART Vol. f255

ART Box a124 no. 1

ART File s528a4 no.14

Standard folder sizes

Size Mylar dimensions Exterior dimensions
XS 8 x 10-1/2 in. 8-1/2 x 11 in.
S 10-1/2 x 13-1/2 in. 11 x 14 in.
M 13-1/2 x 17-1/2 in. 14 x 18 in.
L 17-1/2 x 23-1/2 in. 18 x 24 in.
XL 22-1/2 x 27-1/8 in. 23 x 27-5/8 in.
XXL no mylar 31 x 44 in.
XXXL custom custom

Rationale for folder sizes: intended to correspond with standard sizes of pull-out drawers, but dimensions of the drawers changed after initial design.

When recording size-based call numbers in the holdings record, add the size designation in a subfield ‡m: 852 8 ‡b DeckB-Art ‡h ART 269197 ‡m (size M) ‡j 269197

Uncataloged accessions

ART 252173 (realia) (no designation of whether it's Craven or not: that comes from the catalog record)
ART 241532 (size S) (for prints and drawings in the first room)
ART 246171 (framed) (for framed works; indication of where they're hanging will usually be in Hamnet, but not as part of the call number)
ART 123456 (poster) (for posters, stored rolled on Deck C, opposite the elevator)
ART 242177s (for prints in the Craven collection, in the second room, where the s, m, l, or xl at the end of the number indicates what size paper folder it's in)
ART 242306 (Craven size L) (for re-housed prints in the Craven collection, in the second room)

The distinction between ART xxxxxx and xxxxxx ART no longer applies (it used to indicate degree of cataloging, but that has been replaced by a code in the MARC record). Acc. number call numbers are being converted to ART xxxxxx plus a size designation as they come up.

Cataloged accessions

ART 241- 532 (size S) (for cataloged prints and drawings in the first room)
ART 268- 458 (realia)

Cutter-based call numbers

(For full list of ART Box and ART File Cutters for Shakespeare's works, see Shakespeare cutters for art)

ART Box C439.5 no.3 (size L)
ART Box D653.5 no.1 part 6 (size S)
ART Box J48 no.17 (restricted) (fragile item, not to be given out; digital image available. Shelved in lower right drawers of map cases on Deck C, opposite elevator)
ART File G241 no.2 (size XS)
ART File B621 no.2 PHOTO (size S)
ART File L847t1 C1 no.3 (size S)
ART File S528m5 no.3 copy 1 (size M)
ART File S899h2 no.27 part 10 PHOTO (size XS)

Other call numbers, alphabetically

ART Flat a26 no.3 (ART Flat will only ever be a, b, c, or d)
ART Flat a: volumes too big to store upright, but relatively lightweight (and therefore on upper shelves): now closed
ART Flat b: ditto, but heavier (and therefore shelved below the "ART Flat a" volumes): now closed
ART Flat c: flat items requiring just one shelf-depth of compact shelving when spine-out (i.e. <14")
ART Flat d: flat items requiring pass-through on compact shelving when spine-out one-depth shelving won't work (i.e. >14”)
ART Inv. 1004 (a pseudo-accession number; could be any format)
ART Vol. b45 no.24 (ART Vol. will only ever be a, b, c, d, e, or f; always lower-case)

ART Vol. f: published folios cataloged as art (ditto)
ART Vol. c91 no.6a (always a lower-case letter in the suffix)
Coin Env. 101
Figurine no.12

Ex.Ills.

Extra-illustrated books (Note that Ex.ill. call numbers are being replaced as the items get cataloged and moved to their appropriate homes in the cage, art or manuscript collections)

PN2598.G3 F5 Ex.ill. copy 4 v.8 no.5

Audiovisual materials

AV materials receive sequential call numbers based on format. The collection includes about a dozen media formats, which are numbered separately; some of these are only represented in card catalogs and are not yet searchable in Hamnet.

Format Call no. prefix In Hamnet?
compact disc CD yes
CD-ROM CD-ROM yes
VHS or Beta tape VCR mostly
DVD or DVD-ROM DVD yes
reel-to-reel tape (various speeds) MP no
vinyl/phonograph record (various speeds) PR no
cassette tape T.R.C. some

See the AV shelflist (Folger staff only) for most recent call numbers.

The AV collection includes both stand-alone releases, and items included with a print publication (i.e., a facsimile of sheet music with a recording of the music). Note supplemental AV items in a 300 ‡e (you may include an additional 300 field instead if the AV item is an integral component of the manifestation), and add them as a distinct holding from the print item.

STC call numbers

["STC" #][space]["copy" #]["item" #] [size designation]

If the item in hand is only a fragment (e.g. just a title page) add "fragment" after the copy number (or after the STC number, if there are no other copies in the collection). As of August 2016, this is being done retrospectively for previously-cataloged fragments.

N.B. STC call numbers assigned before the second edition of A Short-Title Catalogue of Books Printed in England, Scotland, & Ireland and of English Books Printed Abroad, 1475-1640 was published sometimes differ from the STC (2nd ed.) number. Sometimes this is because the second edition replaced the old number with a new one, and sometimes because the title in question was only in the second edition, not the first, so at the time of cataloging, Folger staff had to devise a pseudo-STC number. Systematic updating of Folger STC call numbers to match STC (2nd ed.) began in March 2016. See Ghost Busters: Eliminating non-existent STC numbers for Early English Books for more information.

Cataloged Wings

["Wing" #][space]["item" #]["copy" #]["v."# (no space after period)][size designation]
"Cataloged Wings" refers to classification based on Wing number, now frozen.

As of August 2016, if the item in hand is only a fragment (e.g. just a title page) the word "fragment" is being added retrospectively after the copy number (or after the Wing number, if there are no other copies in the collection).

N.B. Like STC call numbers, call numbers based on Wing number sometimes differ from the published Wing number. For example, all Fourth Folios are shelved under S2915 even though some are Wing (2nd ed.) S2916 and others are Wing (2nd ed.) 2917.

Outline of currently used call numbers

Call numbers in italics have not been added to since the 1950s, but remain as legacies.
Call numbers ending in "a" designate bound manuscripts smaller than ten inches.
Call numbers ending in "b" designate bound manuscripts taller or wider than ten inches.
Call numbers ending in "c" or "d" designate unbound material.

NOTE: Manuscript numbers are assigned based on both the housing of the manuscript and its size. For unbound manuscripts housed in standard folders, assign call numbers based on the size of the manuscript as detailed in this section. For manuscripts which are unbound but are housed in book-like containers (and are likely to be shelved upright, as opposed to shelved flat like folders), assign a call number based on the housing (i.e., a V.a. number instead of an X.c. number).

Pre-1701 manuscripts:

  • C.c.1: papers of Jacob Tonson
  • E.a. and E.b.: commonplace books, miscellanies, diaries, accounts, science
  • F.c.: correspondence
  • G.a., G.b., and G.c.: government, history, geography, topography, law, land-transfer, heraldry, genealogy
  • H.a. and H.b.: non-dramatic literature
  • J.a. and J.b.: drama, dramatists, stage
  • K.a. and K.b.: church, religion, theology, clergy
  • L.a., L.b., L.c., L.d., L.e., and L.f.: large collections (respectively: Bagot, Loseley, Newdigate, Bacon-Townsend, Ferrers of Tamworth, and E. Williams watermark collection)
  • V.a. and V.b.: bound manuscripts
  • X.c.: unbound correspondence
  • X.d.: unbound non-correspondence
  • Z.c.: deeds, arranged by county
  • Z.d.: awkwardly-shaped manuscripts, smaller
  • Z.e.: awkwardly-shaped manuscripts, larger

Post-1700 manuscripts:

  • C.a., C.b., and C.c. (except C.c.1, see above): correspondence (late 18th century - 19th century)
  • D.a. and D.b.: drama: plays, books about plays (non-Shakespeare) (18th century - 20th century)
  • L.g.: Mrs. Garrick correspondence (18th century -19th century)
  • M.a and M.b.: miscellanies, notebooks, commonplace books, accounts, lists, compilations (18th century -19th century)
  • N.a. and N.b.: non-dramatic literary compositions, works on literature (18th century -19th century)
  • S.a., S.b., and S.d.: Shakespeare (18th century - 20th century)
  • T.a. and T.b.: theater, stage, actors, prompt-books, parts (18th century - 20th century)
  • W.a. and W.b.: bound manuscripts, post-1700
  • Y.c.: unbound correspondence, post-1700
  • Y.d.: unbound non-correspondence, post-1700

Location of call number

As of 2014, call numbers should be placed:

  • For unbound manuscripts, write the call number with a No. 1 pencil on the recto, upper right, of the item
    • If there are multiple items within a folder, write the call number on each one. Specify "item 1 of 2," etc, if necessary.
  • For bound manuscripts, write the call number with a No. 1 pencil on the verso, upper right.
  • Also write the number on the front cover, lower left, of the folder or envelope.

Older materials may have call numbers in different locations because of variations in processing guidelines.

Formulating manuscript call numbers

[Capital letter][Period][Lowercase letter][Period][Number]

(NB. "bound" means "shelved upright like a book" and "unbound" means "shelved in a standard four-flap folder in a box with other four-flap folders")

V.a: pre-1701 bound manuscripts, quarto
V.b: pre-1701 bound manuscripts, folio
W.a: post-1700 bound manuscripts, quarto

Z.d: awkwardly-shaped MSS, smaller
Z.e: awkwardly-shaped MSS, larger

If parenthetical items follow, then
[Capital letter][Period][Lowercase letter][Period][Number][space][Left parenthesis][Number][Dash][Number][Right parenthesis]. Under current practice, only use parenthetical items for unbound materials (X.c, X.d, Y.c, Y.d, Z.c call numbers)

Y.c.7 (1-11) 

All volumes in multi-volume sets go under a single call number

W.a.273, v. 1-13

In some cases the page or folio number will also appear in the call number:

W.b.464, fol. 11
Y.d.121, fol. 14v
W.b.492, no. 39
W.a.168, after p. 350
W.b.472, p. 51
W.a.255, front endleaf
W.a.255, front endleaf 13v-14
W.a.255, back endleaf 2r 
V.b.66, section 3, fol. 1-2

And for multiple items after or before the page or folio number:

V.b.264, after p. 434 item 1
V.b.264, after p. 434 item 2

When 2 or more items on the same page are cataloged separately, add a letter to differentiate the call numbers:
