Here at GRPL, the catalogers type the assigned classification into
an 082 field, first indicator 0, second indicator 4, making sure it
is the first 082 in the MARC record. We do not use a subfield.
Then when our inputters are attaching items on EG, that first 082
supplies the call field information and they do not have to re-type
it. For instance for a fiction book, we would type 082 04 Fiction
Dilloway. For a nonfiction book: 082 04 813.6 St82w. It is working
great. We can do this now that we are not sharing EG with other
libraries. Libraries with their own classification schemes who are
in a consortium with other libraries could not take advantage of
this, but we are loving it.<br>
