SCAT management system tables

• Auxiliary table used to generate a different SCAT for each subject for Adults, C, B, and "other youth".
• Code position 1/7
• The keyword for the item is compared with the descriptions in this table, for a maximum of five subjects. After the first match, the process stops. A minimum of 12 characters in the term must match.
• 30-character limit

 Note: If there is a ZZZ code in the table, Wise will select the SCAT from that line, if there are subjects in the title, but those subjects do not match any of the lines in this table.

• Auxiliary table used to generate a different subject heading for Youth titles with ages AB, AP, or AK.
• Code position 1/7
• 30-character limit
• The first Subject headings key word in the title is compared with the first 50 descriptions in this table. After the first match, the process stops.

• Auxiliary table used to generate a scat for each series for Adults and/or Youth
• Minimum 4-characters, maximum 30-characters

 Note: A description is required. It must be entered in all caps with no punctuation or symbols.

• Auxiliary table for the definition of genres, control of icons, and to generate a SCAT for Adults or Youth
• See Genre codes for more information

• Auxiliary table to generate a scat for each genre and for each age category (AP – D ).
• For the genre codes, see TABGEN
• Meaning of the code:
  • Positions 1-3 are the genre code, enter other genres as ZZZ
  • Positions 4-6 are the age designation, not required for A, B, and C
• The SCAT number youth field applies to all other ages. If a SCAT is desired for each other age, lines must be created with positions 1-3 genres and 4-6 age
• Age D is assigned its own SCAT but does not fit on the standard screen

• Auxiliary table used to generate a different SCAT for Adults or Youth, based on language from the title (other than NED) and per genre
• Enter code as
  • Positions 1-3 are language code
    • Enter other languages as ZZZ
  • Positions 4-6 are genre code
    • Enter other genres as ZZZ

A scat can be entered for adults, youth, and AJ youth per sheet music SISO with this.
SISO/genre group number field – using the code entered here, you can route through to the next table TABSBG.

• Using a code in the field SISO/genre group from the TABSBL table plus the sheet music letter designations after the SISO, a different scat can be entered for V (adult), J (youth), and AJ

In this way, a certain SISO can be “scatted” more deeply, or multiple SISOs with the same “genre” can be grouped in the same scat.

 Note: There is no verification of the accuracy of the entered scats. These must occur in the central scat table with the correct meaning.

Use this table to create a scat for each Dewey Decimal class.

 Note: This table is limited to Dewey classifications up to one decimal point. Use the table (DEWEY) if your classification numbers are longer.

A scat can be entered for youth and adults for each classification code. The classification must be included in search entry TK0 for the link with the title file.
This can only be used in consultation with OCLC.

Using this, a scat can be entered for each music classification number (NBD/Biblion, 2 positions, numerical) for youth and adults, and a placement comment code.
 The classification must be included in search entry TI4 for the link with the title file.

 Note: Music titles are not supplied with youth type classification.

This can be used to enter a scat for youth and adults for each music classification (according to the classification Rotterdam-CDR, 2 or 3 positions, letters). The classification must be included in search entry TI6 for the link with the title file.

 Note: Music titles are not supplied with youth type classification.

Table to generate a different scat per language code in the title/of the title (not language cataloging body) per Dewey number (or group of Dewey numbers) for Adults and Youth. 

This can be used for collections in a foreign script, such as Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, or Japanese collections, or for collections in specific languages such as Turkish or Esperanto.

Enter the code as:

• Positions 1-3: Title language code (For example, ARA)
• Positions 4-7: Dewey/group (Decimal point)

For example, a code for Dewey numbers starting with 233.4 would be ARA2334. 

• Auxiliary table for the definition of reading levels and to generate a different scat for Adults or Youth per reading level
• By default, in the titles, an MLP code is picked up from KMC B214 or from the text of the library recommendation
• Input otherwise unrestricted
• Some organizations use half values (e.g. for sheet music)
