[Classweb-users] RS and RT schedules

[Paul G Weiss]

The LC bib records with call numbers higher than RS441 and RT120 are erroneous.  There are no currently valid numbers in RS higher than 441 or in RT higher than 120.

The RS schedule in ClassWeb ends with RS 441, and the RT schedule ends 
with RT120.  A call number search in LC's online catalog shows that there 
are numbers higher than RS441, one assigned as recently as 2005, although 
most numbers are assigned to older materials.  In RT, most of the 
materials assigned a number over RT120 are older, although one dates from 
1976, another from 1991. 

One library assigned the call number RS735.I5 C8 2006 to a book I am 
cataloging, but the class number does not exist in ClassWeb nor in LC's 
online catalog.  I'm not sure how to interpret what I am seeing.
