[Classweb-users] PT5183

[Brayman, Susan]

PT5183 is a former class number. The schedule has been changed, but older records won't necessarily be reclassed to the newer number (we have one title in our collection, published back in 1966.)

Dear colleagues,

PT5183 is apparently a valid class number:

PT5180-5185 Dutch literature<javascript:parent.GoTo('up',%20'&span=PT5180-5185&max=0&key=_00PT5180_00PT5185_009_00',%20null)>-Literary history and criticism<javascript:parent.GoTo('up',%20'&span=PT5180-5185&max=1&key=_00PT5180_00PT5185_009_00',%20null)>-History of Dutch literature<javascript:parent.GoTo('up',%20'&span=PT5180-5185&max=2&key=_00PT5180_00PT5185_009_00',%20null)>-Special periods<javascript:parent.GoTo('up',%20'&span=PT5180-5185&max=3&key=_00PT5180_00PT5185_009_00',%20null)>-20th century<javascript:parent.GoTo('down',%20'&span=PT5180-5185&key=_00PT5180_00PT5185_009_00',%20null)>
But when you click on 20th century<javascript:parent.GoTo('down',%20'&span=PT5180-5185&key=_00PT5180_00PT5185_009_00',%20null)>
You will see only:
PT5180 General works
PT5185.A-Z Special topics, A-Z<javascript:parent.GoTo('down',%20'&span=PT5180-5185&key=_00PT5185_2EA_00PT5185_2EZ_009_00',%20null)>

A similar thing happens at PT5190-5195 Dutch literature<javascript:parent.GoTo('up',%20'&span=PT5190-5195&max=0&key=_00PT5190_00PT5195_009_00',%20null)>-Literary history and criticism<javascript:parent.GoTo('up',%20'&span=PT5190-5195&max=1&key=_00PT5190_00PT5195_009_00',%20null)>-History of Dutch literature<javascript:parent.GoTo('up',%20'&span=PT5190-5195&max=2&key=_00PT5190_00PT5195_009_00',%20null)>-Special periods<javascript:parent.GoTo('up',%20'&span=PT5190-5195&max=3&key=_00PT5190_00PT5195_009_00',%20null)>-21st century<javascript:parent.GoTo('down',%20'&span=PT5190-5195&key=_00PT5190_00PT5195_009_00',%20null)>

The thing is that we discovered that in WorldCat and in the LC-catalog quite a few bibrecords have been provided with PT5183 (and have been downloaded to our local ILS).

Via Correlations Search (LCC => LCSH) you will see this:

PT5183<javascript:Browser('&table=schedules&span=PT5183')>
         Dutch literature--20th century--History and criticism<javascript:LCSH('Dutch%20literature--20th%20century--History%20and%20criticism')> [Topical] (43)
         Dutch literature--20th century<javascript:LCSH('Dutch%20literature--20th%20century')> [Topical] (8)
         Authors, Dutch--20th century--Interviews<javascript:LCSH('Authors,%20Dutch--20th%20century--Interviews')> [Topical] (4)
         Dutch literature--20th century--Bio-bibliography<javascript:LCSH('Dutch%20literature--20th%20century--Bio-bibliography')> [Topical] (2)
         Authors, Dutch--20th century--Biography<javascript:LCSH('Authors,%20Dutch--20th%20century--Biography')> [Topical] (2)
         Dutch literature--History and criticism<javascript:LCSH('Dutch%20literature--History%20and%20criticism')> [Topical] (1)
         Authors, Dutch--20th century--Books and reading<javascript:LCSH('Authors,%20Dutch--20th%20century--Books%20and%20reading')> [Topical] (1)
         Dutch literature--20th century--Bibliography--Exhibitions<javascript:LCSH('Dutch%20literature--20th%20century--Bibliography--Exhibitions')> [Topical] (1)
         Dutch literature--20th century--History and criticism--Congresses<javascript:LCSH('Dutch%20literature--20th%20century--History%20and%20criticism--Congresses')> [Topical] (1)
         Authors, Dutch--20th century--Anecdotes<javascript:LCSH('Authors,%20Dutch--20th%20century--Anecdotes')> [Topical] (1)

So, by the look of it, a class number is used, although it does not exist.
Or are we mistaken somehow?
