 Chapter 7: Preparing Monographs for Binding

Creating a Monograph Lot

Earlier, we created a lot for periodicals. Now let's create a monograph lot. 

There's no difference between a periodical lot and a monograph lot so we'll repeat the same steps we used to create our periodical lot. Keeping our lot-naming scheme in mind, this time our lot name will end

with M.

Monograph Formats

Adding a monograph to a lot is similar to adding a periodical, but instead of retrieving titles from our database, we

use Formats. While we're not retrieving titles from the database, we must leave the Key set to one of the title keys. 

Formats are

simply templates

 that contain basic formatting information, but

they don't

 contain any stampable text. 

We can use any of a number of standard formats depending on the style of the volume we are binding. The standard formats are listed below: 

A

AUTHOR 
ATM AUTHOR,

TITLE 
AT1M AUTHOR, TITLE,

CALL 
TAM TITLE,

AUTHOR 
TA1M TITLE, AUTHOR,

CALL 
TM

TITLE 
T1M TITLE, CALL

Demonstration: Using a Monograph Format

This demonstration shows the steps we follow to add a monograph item to a lot. We'll use the

format TAM

 to format a Title/Author item.

A Few Points to Keep in Mind

• Enter backslashes between words of the title so the words will stamp on separate lines. If you would like blank lines between words, enter multiple backslashes. 
For one blank line, enter two backslashes (

\\) between words. 
For two blank lines, enter three backslashes (\\\) between words. 
For three blank lines, enter four backslashes (\\\\) between words. 
And so

on… 
• Do not enter level numbers unless you are sending a set of like volumes. 
• Monograph items are not saved in the permanent title database.
