PREFACE

The acquisitions and processing staff of the CEC (Council for Exceptional Children)Information Center has prepared this manual in order to clarify and document proceduresnow in effect at the Center, to assist in training new personnel, and to provide a modelfor other information centers. All steps involved in the acquisitirm and processing ofliterature concerning exceptional children are described, including methods for acquiringdocuments for the Center's data base, processing abstracts (including bibliographic dataand descriptors of these documents for entry onto a computer file), and publishing allabstracts in the Center's quarterly journal, Exceptional Child Education Abstracts.Guidelines for cataloging and keypunching are provided as are examples of all standardforms used in the acquisitioning and processing functions. Also described are proceduresinvolved in proce -sing abstracts for inclusion in Research In Education and procedures forprocessing journal citations for Current Index to Journals in Education.both of which areEducational Resources Information Center (ERIC) publications.

it is hoped that this manual will contribute to the improvement of informationgathering and processing procedures so that a prime goal of the CEC Information Centercan be efficiently servedthat is, the provision of well-organized and rapidly availableinformation concerning exceptional children.

I. ACQUISITIONS POLICY AND SELECTION

A. Acquisitions Policy

The main scope of the library collection of the CEC Information Center has beenprofessional print materials relevant to the education of handicapped and giftedchildren and youth. In addition to documents concerned with education, acquisi-tions with a medical orientation and documents on the disadvantaged, earlychildhood, reading, psychology, educational philosophy, and other areas of re-lated interest have been included in the collection. (See Example 1 fiv Acquisi-tio. Policies.)

Journals, publishers' catalogs, review publications, standard bibliographies, andother sources outlined in Example 2 are scanned for potential documents. Whilebook reviews are helpful, they are not necessary, as books may be ordered on thebasis of their title, or title and author. Examination copies of journals may berequested, or a journal may be ordered on the basis of staff recommendation orprepublication announcements.

The acquisition of complimentary copies is an objective of the Center althoughitems which cannot be obtained free of charge are purchased. In exchange for acomplimentary copy of a document, the Center offers the possibility of a review(an abstract) in either Research in Education (RIE) and/or Exceptional ChildEducation Abstracts (ECEA). In return for complimentary copies of journals, thecenter newsletter, "ERIC ExCerpt",is offered, while the Council for ExceptionalChildren's official organ, Exceptional Children, is usually given in exchangejournal agreements.

Exchanges with TEACHING Exceptional Children can be granted by the Acquisi-tions Cooidinator but a request for on exchange with Education and Training ofthe Mentally Retarded must be referred to the editor of that journal (both areCEC publications).

B. Selection of Documents

I . Selection of ERIC Documents

As an Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC) Clearinghouse, theCEC Information Center submits documents (not journal articles) forannouncement in the ERIC publication, Research in Education (RIE). Thesedocuments are chosen on a highly selective basis and total approximately 50per month. The following suggestions are made for guidance in selectingmaterials to be announced in Research in Education.

a. Look for documents concerning exceptiona! children that are out-standing by virtue of comprehensiveness, relevance, and style.

b. Copyrighted documents for which a copyright release will not be obtain-able (trade publications) are not selected unless they are extremelywell-written and organized, deal with a very timely subject, are a freshapproach to a topic, or are a new version or compilation by a wellrespected person in the field.

4

c. Consider the source of the document and try to determine whether itwould be readily available to the user if it were not reproduced and soldby the ERIC Document Reproduction Service (EDRS). Curriculumguides, research reports, statistical data, or administrative guidelines maybe published by organizations which do not have funds to produonumerous quantities. These kinds of materials, if deemed well done anduseful, would be best announced in RIE and reproduced for purchase.

d. In the ease of approved reports of research funded by the Bureau ofEducation for the Handicapped (BEH), there is no decision needed.Thest; are designated by the ERIC facility as Must documents and mustbe abstracted for RIE. Occasionally such a document may appear to beout of scope or inappropriate for RIE. A phone call should then bemade to the Bureau for resolution of the problem. Research reportsfunded by BEH should not be abstracted and announced before BEHhas approved them. If reports come in without the Must form, theycannot be processed. A letter should be written to BEH specifying theauthor, title, date, institution, and grant number and requesting approvalto process. Hold such documents until approval is received.

e. Documents which could be reproduced by EDRS but are not within thescope of the Clearinghouse on Exceptional Children should be trans-ferred to the appropriate ERIC Clearinghouse. Relevant materials notdirectly concerning exceptional children which could not be reproducedby EDRS are retained for the local collection only.

2. Selection of Documents for ECEA Only

a. Choosing documents for announcement only in ECEA involves selectionfrom a wider range of material and includes journal articles. It is theCenter's policy to reflect diverse opinions, theories, and methods con-cerning exceptional children. Documents dealing with relevant topicssuch as early childhood or behavior theory and not specifically with thegifted or handicapped are also included.

b. Material is sometimes received which does not meet the standards forannouncement in RIE and is not appropriate for ECEA. This includesmaterial which is poorly written, of a sentimental nature, contains nonew information, is very brief, or lacks depth. Such items are not addedto the collection. Materials not appropriate for the collection and not inthe scope of any other clearinghouse and/or extra copies of librarymaterials are given to a local college library.

C. Selection of Journals

1. Journals Indexed for CIJE

Journals are examined for articles appropriate for abstracting and forn anintegral part of the library collection. Core journals are indexed for CutrentIndex to Journals in Education (CIJE), an ERIC-sponsored publication.Fifteen of these core journals are indexed cover-to-cover while 17 are doneselectively..

4

a. Journals indexed cover to cover for CUE are given directly to the Coor-dinator of Abstracting and Indexing Regular features (non-articles) suchas editorials and book reviews are never indexed.

b. Articles from selective CUE journals are chown on the basis of rele-vance to the education of exceptionl children and youth with consider-ation for relevance to other areas of education.

c. Articles indexed for CUE are also abstracted and included in ECEA.

2. Journals Abstracted and Indexed for ECEA

a. Articles from journals abstracted and indexed. for ECEA alone areselected on the basis of relevance to the education of occeptional child-ren and youth. Articles concerned with early childhood, psychology,linguistics, testing, cultural differences, or administration may beincluded if relevant.

b. Brief articles which merely restate or repeat ideas or views are rejected,as are articles which am ungrammatical, illogical, superficial, or com-pletely irrelevant to exceptional children.

H. ACQUISITION OF DOCUMENTS FROM PUBLISHER OR SOURCE

A. The Acquisitions Coordinator (AC) scans all journals, newsletters, catalogs, andother materials either ordered or unsolicited for items which appear to bedesirable acquisitions.

B. The AC then checks the On Order, In Process, and ECEA title printouts to see ifthe identified item has already been ordered, received, or processed.

C. A white On Order card (Example 3) is completed with as much bibliographicdata as is available, but minimal information include.: title, publisher, andnumber of copies wanted. If the item is to be purchased, a green line is drawnacross the top of the card and the word "Purchase" written in the upper righthand corner in the space marked ED . The day's date must be stamped in theupper right hand corner.

D. On Order cards are filed in a box in the office of the AC until 10-20 haveaccumulated (usually this amount will accumulate wee! ty).

E. Cards are then given to a clerk who will type out the purelyse requisitions or thecomplimentary copy letter (Examples 4 and 5). In cases where a report of aproject is wanted and the exact title of the report is not known,a project requestletter is sent (Example 6).

F. The clerk mails complimentary copy and/or project request letters and forwardspurchase requisitions to Mrs. Anna Brosius (Administrative Assistant, TheCouncil for Exceptional Children).

G. Clerk, using each On Order card as a reference, keypunches title, author, andpublisher (in that order) on one keypunch card.

4

H. Clerk arranges keypunched cards alphabetically by title and has them run offweekly to produce the Acquisitions On Order Printout.

I. Clerk Files the On Order cards alphabetically by title in an On Order File andfiles the keypunched cards alphabetically by title in an IBM card box in heroffice.

J. Mrs. Brosius mails the Purchase Order (P.O.) (Example 7) to the publisher andsends a copy to the Acquisitions Coordinator who files it in a folder of PurchaseOrders Pending.

III. ACQUISITION OF DOCUMENTS FROM BAKER & TAYLOR

The wholesale firm of Baker and Taylor is often used when ordering ik.,ins whichmust be purchased. Every 2 1/2 months, the Acquisitions Coordinator cz-ecks thewhite On Order cards, looking at the dates stamped in the upper right hand ,:orner ofthose for which a complimentary request letter was sent. If a date is more than 2 1/2months old, and if there is reason to believe (based on past experience) that thepublisher will not provide a complimentary copy, the document will be purchasedfrom Baker and Taylor. (Documents for which a purchase order was sent to thepublisher initially are not ordered from Baker and Taylor at this point, nor are itemspublished by firms or organizations not included in Baker and Taylor's list ofsuppliers.)

A. The Acquisitions Coordinator marks the card with a green line at the top, writesPurchase B & T in the top right hand corner, and stamps in the day's date underthe date of the original request.

B. Clerk types out a Baker and Taylor order form giving the requested information(Example 8).

C. Clerk makes two xeroxes of this form giving the original and one xerox to Mrs.Brosius.

D. The other xerox copy is placed in the Baker and Taylor folder in the AC'soffice.

E. Mrs. Brosius makes a purchase order and sends it to Baker and Taylor with theoriginal order form; a copy of the P.O. is sent to the AC.

F. AC staples the P.O. to the xeroxed order form and returns both to the Baker andTaylor file.

G. No keypunch cards are made as they are still filed from the original request.

IV. ARRIVAL OF DOCUMENTS FROM PUBLISHER OR SOURCE

A. All acquisitions intended for the CEC Information Center are sorted in the CECmailroom and placed in the Center's slot in the mailbox where they are pie edup by a clerk.

B. The clerk opens and sorts the mail, checking all documents against the On Orderfile.

C. If an On Order card is found for a document, the On Order card is placed insidethe document and the keypunch card is pulled and discarded.

D. All documents are routed directly to the AC, including those for which no cardwas found.

V. ARRIVAL OF DOCUMENTS FROM BAKER & TAYLOR

A. Books requested from Baker and Taylor as one order generally arrive in twoseparate shipments approximately 6 weeks apart.

B. The clerk follows the same procedure as for regular documents, pulling the OnOrder card and placing it in the document and discarding the keypunch card.

C. The AC receives the book and takes out the Baker and Taylor file.

D. The order form containing the order for that book (or books) is located and theday's date is stamped next to the title of the book on the form.

E. The book is then processed as stated in Section VII.

F. When the second shipment of books from an order arrives, the AC checks to seewhether all books ordered have been supplied. (Baker and Taylor also sends astatement notifying of order completion or inability to find all books.)

G. The AC checks to be cure that books ordered from Baker and Taylor but notreceived have not been rt. ceived as complimentary copies from the publisher inthe meantime; if not they will be ordered as a purchase from the publisher.

H. The AC is responsible for checking all invoices received from Baker and Taylor toensure that books billed are books which have been received.

I. Other books which may be ordered from Baker and Taylor:

I. Books which are to be ordered for the first time which the AC, based on pastexperience, has reason to believe won't be supplied free by the publisher.

2. Books for which a purchase order was sent to a pubiisher who failed to sendthe book or to respond to follow-up letters. In these cases, the AC requeststhat Mrs. Brosius cancel the original P.O.

VI. FOLLOW-UP FORM LETTERS

When the Acquisitions Coordinator examines the card file of documents on ordsTevery 2 1 /2 months looking for items not received which were ordered more than 21 /2 months prior to that date, she separates identified items into two lists, thosewhich were ordered by letter requesting a complimentary copy, and those whichwere ordered by purchase from the publisher.

If there is reason to believe that a complimentary copy will be sent, publishers whoreceived a request for a complimentary copy get a form letter which can be markedand returned (Example 9). When no reply to the letter is received within two weeks,the books are ordered from Baker and Taylor. Follow-up letters (Example 10) arealso sent to publishers who received purchase orders, and if no reply is received intwo weeks, the AC notifies Mrs. Brosius to cancel the purchase order. The books arethen crdered from Baker and Taylor.

Unanswered journal requests are also treated with form letters (Exomple 1 In caseswhere no exchange agreement can be reached, the journal may be ordo.red by pur-chase order.

VII. RECEIPT OF DOCUMENTS BY ACQUISITIONS COORDINATOR

A. The Acquisitions Coordinator initially sorts documents into two stacksthosewith and those without On Order cards.

I. Documents without On Order cards are unsolicited; title indexes ofECEA and the In Process Index are checked to see whether the books areduplicates of material already received.

a. If materials are duplicates, a processing form with the EC numberand the notation that this is a second copy is attached to the frontcover and the document is routed to the processing clerk.

b. If material is not a duplicate, a decision must be made whether toretain it or not.

c. If material is not appropriate for the collection because it is not inscope or is poorly done, it will be rejected. Documents appropriatefor another ERIC Clearinghouse will be transferred. Clerk will sendtransfer letter (Example 12) and package material.

d. If material is to be kept, the appropriate data will be written on anOn Order card and inserted in the document. Data which may beincluded at this point are copyright date, number of pages, author'sname (or names), title, publisher, price (if known) and acquisitionscategory code letters. The category should reflect the majoremphasis of the document (Example 13).

ii

Documents winch have On Order cards and hae been purchased.3

a. The AC will check to see if a copy of the CEC purchase order hasbeen received and filed in the Purchase Orders Pending folder.

b. If there is a P.O., the AC will stamp an v?-iow in the upper righthand cornci of the r O. and file it numerically in the PurchaseOrders Remit ed folder,

c. If the document has been ordered from Baker and Taylor, thatfolder will be checked The date received will be stamped next toeach book in the shipment on the xeroxed order form in the folder.If all books ordered on one purchase order are received or stated as"not available" at that time (reorder), an arrow will be stamped inthe upper right hand corner of the purchase order which will beretained in the Baker and Taylor file.

d. The AC is responsible for checking and approving or disapproving allinvoices received for purchbsed materiel.

3. Documents which have On Order cart;s and have been sent as complimen-tary copies. The AC checks the On f ..ler card an t! supplies any missinginformation.

B. The AC then examines all the documents which have been received and re-tained to determine whether they will be processed for RIE ;nid ECEA orECEA only and checks the appropriate space on the On Order :ard. All doc-uments retained now hav, On Order cards filled out with appropriate data.Selection criteria for ET documeuts and documents for ECEA only arefound in Section LB.

1. A yellow procttssing form is attached to the front cover of ni,.4iintended for RIE (Example l4).

a. if a document is intended for RIE and is not copyrighted, and ifthee: is only one copy, spaces indicating the need for numberl.q.first copy, and the need for a duplicate are checked. If there are twoor more copies, the space to request a duplicate is not marked. Ayellow form is also attached to the second copy and marked toshow that the copy needs a bookpocket, numbering, a book card,and is a second copy. Third copies arc retained and given a book-pocket, card, and number.

b. If a document is intended for RIE and is copyrighted,a decision ismade whether a copyright release should be requested. This is notdone for texts published by regular commercial publishing houses. Arelease is requested when an item would not be readily obtainablefrom the publisher, when the source has published a limitedquantity, when a portion of the document is copyrighted, or whenin the judgement of the AC it would be valuable to have the docu-ment on microfiche in case it goes out of print. The notation to askfor a release is made on the processing form. Section 3.4. 1-8 of theERIC Operating Manual provides copyright information.

7 2

4

c. If a document is a copytighted text by a standard or commercialpublisher the processing form is checked to indicate the need for abookpocket, bookcard, and numbering. The number of the copy isnoted (whether it is the first or second copy). Duplicates are notrequested and more than two copies are given away.

2. If a document is intended for ECEA only, a white processing slip( Example 15), is attached to the front cover and indication made forbookpocket, book card, numbering, and pamphlet binder if necessary.Once again the number of the copy is indicated and more than two aregiven away. No reproduction is involved and all processing slips of docu-ments intended for ECEA are filled out similarly.

VIII. DOCUMENTS SHELVED FOR INFORMATION CATALOGER

When the Acquisitions Coordinator has completed the On Order cards, selected thedocument for RIE or ECEA, and attached and completed the proper processingform, the documents are placed in the office of the Information Cataloger onseparate shelves, one for ERIC To Be Cataloged and one for Non-ER1C To BeCataloged.

IX. CATALOGING FOR ERIC

A. The Infornotic i Cataloger (hereafter called the cataloger) removes the docu-ments for OE from the ERIC To Be Cataloged shelf and catalogs them onERIC Resir,ne Forms ( Example 16) according to guidelines in Section 3.4. 1 ofthe ERIC Operating Manual.

B. EC numbers ,,re assigned to all except those for which a copyright release mustbe requested. EC numbers are assigned sequentially and are entered on the OnOrder card which is then removed from the document and stacked on thecataloger's desk.

C. Documents awaiting copyright release are replaced on the ERIC To Be Cata-loged shelf. The cataloger sends a copyright release form letter (Example 17)to the author and indicates the date on the processing form.

D. The cataloger also ;,ends out requests for duplicate copies (Example 18) butproceeds with the numbering of the document.

X. PREPARATION OF ERIC ACQUISITIONS DATA FORM

The ERIC Acquisitions Data Form is used to record newly accessioned documentsintended for announcement in RIE. Each ERIC Clearinghouse prepares a list of suchdocuments and sends it to the ERIC facility at the end of each month. The informa-tion is published monthly in the ERIC Acquisitions Data List, a compilation ofnewly accessioned items at each Clearinghouse in alphabetical order by author andtitle.

A. Subsequent to cataloging, ERIC documents are placed on a shelf for additionto the ERIC Acquisitions Data Form.

B. The Acquisitions Coordinator, weekly, adds documents to the list followingguidelines in Section 3.3.5-9 of the ERIC Operating Manual. (All documentsintended for RIE and numbered during the week are listed.)

C. On the last Friday of each month the Acquisitions Data Form is xeroxed andthe original sent to the ERIC facilly with the weekly ERIC shipment. If forsome reason it is not possible to do this on the last Friday, the list is mailedspecial delivery by the last day of the month. The xeroxed copy is filed in theAC's office in a folder labeled ERIC Acquisition Forms.

XI. DUPLICATE CHECKING OF ERIC ACQUISITIONS DATA LIST

A. Upon arrival of the ERIC Acquisitions Data List prepared by the ERIC facility,the AC examines it for duplicates.

B. This is done by reading the list and noting the starred items. Starred itemsindicate that two or more entries have the same title, or author and title, andappear to be duplicates.

C. In some cases the item is not an actual duplicate but a series of reportsbeginning with the same title and having the same author. These instancesusually occur within a Clearinghouse rather than between Clearinghouses. Noaction is necessary.

D. When two or more items that have the same title or author and title have beensubmitted by EC and another Clearinghouse, the AC calls the Clearinghouseinvolved to check on the status of the document. If one Clearinghouse hasalready completed processing and shipped the document to the ERIC facility,the other will not send their copy. If neither have completed processing, theymust agree as to who will continue. If both have submitted the document theymust decide who will call the ERIC facility and request that the document bereturned. The Clearipghouse pulling the document must always mark it as adelet!on on the Acquisitions Data Form.

4

XII, COMPLETION OF ERIC PROCESSING

A. After documents are entered on the ERIC Acquisitions Data Form (Sectbn X)and physically processed (Section XIX) they are placed on a shelf labeledERIC To Be Abstracted.

B. When documents to be announced in RIE return from the abstractor, they areplaced on a shelf labeled ERIC To Be Typed. From there, the catalogerremoves them and types the descriptive data, index terms, and abstracts ontoan ERIC resume form.

C. When all resumes of documents for the weekly shipment are typed, the Ac-quisitions Coordinator is notified and final reads the resumes, checking forcataloging and typing errors, incorrect descriptors, and grammar and sense ofthe abstract. Errors are corrected by the cataloger. Using the author and insti-tution indexes and the title printout of R1E, the cataloger checks the resumesagainst the entire ERIC collection to be certain that the documents have notbeen previously submitted by any aearinghouse.

D. A log sheet is completed for items in that week's shipment (Example 19).Resumes and the log sheet(s) (signed by the cataloger) are xeroxed, and copiesare filed by the catalogerresumes in 3-ring binders and log sheets in a filecabinet.

E. Documents to be reproduced (noncopyrighted materials and copyrighted mat-erials for which we have a release), resumes, xeroxed title and table of contentspages of copyrighted documents for which there is no release (If any), and theoriginal log sheet are boxed, addressed, and placed in the CEC mailroom by thecataloger who calls for a pick-up by messenger service and delivery to the ERICfacility. (ERIC Processing and Reference Facility, Leasco Systems and Re-search Corporation, 4833 Rugby Avenue, Bethesda, Maryland 20014).

XIII. CATALOGING FOR ECEA

The following guidelines are used by the cataloger in completing fields in the localcataloging form (Examples 20 and 21) for documents or journals to be announcedin FCEA only. For the most part, these guidelines are the same as those used incataloging documents for RIE. Only those instructions which are most often utilizedin cataloging for ECEA are described in this section; for directions on completingfields not covered here, refer to the ERIC Operating Manual, Section 3.4.1.

A. Acquisitions Category

Acquisitions Category Code letters located in the Category field of the OnOrder card are entered here.

10 15

B. Pt blication Date and Pagination

The date of publication is used when known; if not, the copyright date is used.If all components are known. the date is written us follows: 26 Oct 71. Themonth and year or the year alone may be entered: Oct 71 or 71. If anestimated publication date is used it must be enclosed in brackets. The numberof pages are indicated next to the publication date: 234p.

C. Author

The personal author is entered in full, last name first and omitting titles ordegrees but including th.l abbreviations Ed. or Comp. when necessary.

Examples: Day, Bertha O.

Harris, Barbara A., Ed.

If there are two authors, the name of the first is followed by a semicolon andthe name of the second is entered below it. If there are more than two authors,the name of the first is entered followed by the phrase And Others.

Example: Monroe, Dora U. And Others

D. Title

The complete document title, as found in the title page, is entered followed bya period. If there is no title page, the cover title must be used. In cases wherethere is no title, one may be made up based on the contents of the documentand must be enclosed in brackets. A semicolon is generally used to separatetitle from subtitle, but a colon should be used if there is doubt as to whetherthere is a subtitle or whether the entire statement should be considered thetitle proper.

How to Breed and Raise Scottish Terriers.Examples:

The Mind of the Dog; Studies in Canine Psychology.

Information relating to the type of report and to data such as volume and partnumbers is considered a part of the title and is entered as follows:

Example: Research and Evaluation Study of Resource Room Teachers.Final Report.

If a document is issued in several parts or volumes wider one title, enter underthe main title and add the part or volume number and the distinctive title ofthe document.

Example: A Potpourri of Ideas for Teachers of the Mentally Re-tarded. Volume II, the Practical Arts.

11 16

4

A series title should be entered following the specific title of the documentexcept when the specific title is more general than the series title, or when theseries title is well known. Care must be exercised in distinguishing it from otherdescriptive information relating to the document. A series is a number ofseparate works issued in succession, and related to one another by the fact thateach bears a collective title, generally appearing at the head of the title page,normally issued by the same publisher or institution in a uniform style. fre-quently in numerical sequence. A document issued in several parts or volumeswith the same title is not considered a series. The series statement includes thedistinctive collective title, and if a numbered series, the number of the particu-lar document.

Example: A Report on the Low Ability Student in the Fontana PublicSchools. Student Personnel Series, Section B.

Titles of conferences, proceedings, etc.,should be taken verbatim from the titlepage, with the exception that the number of a conference appearing in the titleshould be removed from its position and placed in parenthesis after the titlefollowed by a period.

Example: Summary of the Proceedings of the Working Conferenceon Language Development in Congenitally Deaf Children(2nd, April 10-12, 1968).

When the place and date of the conference also appear in the title or areclearly indicated on the title page, they should also be removed and included inparenthesis in the following order: number, place, date.

Example: Resource Workshop on Instructional Materials for theEducable Mentally Retarded (3rd, Atlanta, November 6-8,1970).

For articles taken from journals, utilize the following form when entering thejournal citation in this field. The information should be complete with journaltitle, volume number, issue number (if available), pagination, and date. Thejournal name is always followed by a semicolon.

Examples: Exceptional Children; v37 n10 p723-31 Sum 1971

Mental Retardation; v2 n1 p3-6 Apr 1971

G. Descriptive Note

Descriptive information concerning preprints. reprints, papers or speechespresented at annual meetings. conferences. etc..is entered in this field.

Examples: Paper Presented at the National Conference of the Ameri-can Dog Owners Association (1st, Maga. 1111.nois, March7-10. 1970).

Reprint from Proceedings of 67th Annual Convention ofthe American Kennel Club, 1962, AKC, New York,New York.

H. Documents and thei, cataloged forms are placed on a shelf for physical pro-cessing (inclusion of a bookpocket. bookcard, and a stamped number) by aclerk (see Section XIX).

1. After physical processing they are shelved for abstracting on a shelf labeledReady To Be Abstracted - Non ERIC

J. After abstracting, documents are given directly to the Information ProcessingSupervisor.

XIV. PREPARATION OF IN PROCESS INDEX

A. Near the end of each week, a clerk picks up the k .10n Order cards fromthe desk of the cataloger and keypunches all information on them.

B. A printout called the In Process Index, which is a cumulative index of docu-ments in process for an issue of ECEA, is run. The entries are listed by author,title, and publisher.

C. The AC receives 3 copies of the index, one of which is given to the Etitor ofExceptional Children.

XV. JOURNAL ACQUISITIONS

New journals are identified with the cooperation of CEC staff who are free to makerecommendations. New journals usually come to our attention through prepublica-tion announcements, letters to professional staff, or announcement in a journalreceived. Established journals not received may be identified by staff as onesthought to be useful and appropriate, by requests for exchange from the journaleditor or publisher, or by examination of abstract publications for frequency ofarticles relevant to exceptional children from a journal not received. When thejournal has been identified and selected for ordering, the following steps arefollowed:

A. Acquisitions Coordinator fills out a yellow journal order form (Example 22)with the appropriate bibliographic data and a notation to request com-plimentary or exchange copies or to purchase the journal.

13 18

4

B. Clerk, referring to yellow form, types the appropriate form letter (Evampkv 23and 24) or =Les out a purchase requisition.

C. Letters are maited., purchase requisitions are sent to Mrs. Brosius who returns acopy of the purchase order.

D. Clerk dates yellow form and places it, with a carbon of the request letter (or acopy of the purchase order) in a tile marked Journals On Order.

XVI. ARRIVAL OF NEW ADDITIONS TO THE JOURNAL COLLECTION

A. Clerk makes a white check-in card, pink check-out card (Examples 25 and 26),and manila folder with the name of the journal, then logs in the issue on thewhite check-in card in the Journal Clieck-In File.

B. Clerk delivers journal to Acquisitions Coordinator who removes yellow orderform from file, records date of receipt on the form, places form in the pre-pared manila folder, and tiles the folder.

C. A Journals Received Folder is kept to file correspondence concerning journalswhich have not been physically received, but which have been promised by theeditor or publisher.

D. Other letters relevant to exchanges or to sending complimentary copies may bereceived; all such correspondence is kept in the manila folder for that journal.

E. Acquisitions Coordinator adds the name of the journal to the computer print-out of the master list of journals.

F. Once every three months the AC checks the master list, completes data foreach addition, and makes deletions or corrections.

G. Clerk keypunches new data, makes changes or deletions of old cards and hasmaster list run off in pr:ntout form.

XVII. ARRIVAL OF JOURNALS REGULARLY RECEIVED AND JOURNAL PRO-CESSING

A. Ihe clerk logs in issues of journals in the Journal Check-In File.

B. Journals are then transferred to the Acquisitions Coordinator. (The exceptionsfire abstract publications which are shelved after being logged in and are notabstracted.)

C. Acquisitions Coordinator determines whether each journal is indexed forCurrent Index to Journals in Education (CIJE) or abstracted and indexed forECEA only by consulting the list of Journals Processed for CIJE (Example 27).

1419

I. D. The Acquisitions Coordinator handles CUE journals as follows:

1. Journal Abstract Checklist is attached to journal cover (Example 28) andname of journal, month, year. volume, and number are recorded.

2. CUE is written in the upper right hand corner of the checklist

3. Journal (imtains Abstracted Material sticker is placed on the lowqr righthand corner of the journal.

4. If the journal is done cover-to-cover (determined by consulting the )1,;i. ofJournals Processed for CUE), it is given directly to the Coordinator ofAbstracting and Indexing after checking for potential acquisitio:m

5. If the journal is done selectively, AC decides which articles are to be t.',orivand specifies the page number, last name of author, and acquisitiotIGcategory on the processing fcrra, tben routes to (. oordinLor ofAbstracting and Indexing after clieek:iig fur acquisitions.

6. In some cases, no articles from selective journals are appropriate in whichcase the checklist and sticker are not attached and the Coordinator ofAbstracting and Indexing is notified while the journal itself is shelved.

E. Non-CIJE journals are processed in this manner:

1. AC scans journals for relevant articles.

2. Articles identified are indicated on the Journal Abstract Checklist whichis filled out as in D.-1 above. The Journal Contains Abstracted Materialsticker is attached to the lower right hand corner.

3. Journal is examined for acquisitions.

4. Journals with articles to be abstracted are placed on a shelf marked ECEATo Be Cataloged in the cataloger's office.

5. If no articles are to be abstracted, a journal is either shelved or set asidefor CEC staff use out of the library according to a predetermined listwhich may be modified by staff.

F. Decision making on additions or deletions to CIJE

1. The Acquisitions Coordinator and the Coordinator of Abstracting andIndexing collaborate on whether to add or delete a journal from thosedone for CIJE. The Coordinator of Abstracting and Indexing will requestwritten approval from the CIJE publisher.

2. Journals are added when it is felt that a significant number of articlesrelevant to exceptional children are regularly published and when noother clearinghouse already covers the journal.

3. Deletions are made when a journal consistently fails to produce a signifi-cant number of relevant articles or when the journal ceases production.

G. Journals to be kept on shelves, bound, or made available outside of the library

I. Limited shelf space has made necessary the decision to retain in thelibrary for only one volume year approximately one half of the journals.See starred journals on Journals Received List (Example 2(J).

" Any staff member can, at any time, discuss with the AC and librarydirector the feasibility of adding or dropping any title from those housedin the library.

3. The AC may decide to add a title to those to be kept in the library butmust discuss removal of a title with the library director and other pro-fessional staff members.

4. Core journals have been selected for binding. Additions may be madedepending on available funds.

5. Journals not retained for one volume year are collected by the AC andremoved from the library periodically to out-of-library storage,

6. Journals kept for one volume year which are not bound are also removedfrom the library at the end of each volume year to out-of-library storage.

XVIII. COMPLETION OF CIJE PROCESSING

A. Abstractors catalog and index articles on ERIC Journal Article Resume Forms(Example 30); the journal and resume forms are given to the cataloger.

B. Cataloger assigns EC numbers and types resumes including bibliographic data,descriptors, and annotations (when provided by the abstractor).

C. Log sheets are prepared for each journal by the cataloger.

D. Resumes and log sheet(s) are final read by the Coordinator of Abstracting andIndexing who indicates errors for the cataloger to correct and who approvesthe log sheet.

E. Resumes and log sheet(s) are xeroxed.

F. Original copies of resumes and log sheet(s) are mailed to CCM InformationCorporation (866 Third Avenue, Room .1126, New York, New York 10022).

G. A xeroxed copy of the log sheet(s) is filed with the Coordinator of Abstractingand Indexing.

H. The abstractor modifies each xeroxed resume to conform to ECEA specifica-tions, attaches it to the appropriate abstract and forwards it to the catalogerwho inserts keypunch field codes (see Section XXIV for Field Codes). Theresume and journals are then given to the Information Processing Supervisor.

XIX. PHYSICAL PROCESSING AND SHELVING

A. First copies of ERIC documents which are to he reproduced by MRS will notbe physically processed with a bookpocket and book card. The EC numbermay be stamped on by the clerk or written on by the cataloger.

B. Second or thin' copies of docklments to be reproduced and first and secondcopies of all other documents (not journals) get a stamped number. book-pocket. and bookcard; some may require a pamphlet binder. This work is doneby a clerk.

I. Bookpockets are affixed in the middle of the inside front cover. The ECnumber is stamped on the upper right hand corner of the bookpocket.

2. Book cards are numbered in the upper right hand corner; Ruthor and titleare typed on the card.

3. The EC number is stamped on the upper right hand corner of the firstpage inside the front cover. The EC number is also stamped onto a pieceof white backing paper which is inserted into a plastic sleeve; the sleeve isaffixed to the lower spine of the document with a heating iron.

4. First copies of documents are then placed on shelves to be abstracted,one shelf for ERIC documents and one for ECEA. They are arrangednumerically from lowest to highest.

5. Second copies (or second and third copies of documents to be repro-duced) are shelved in the library by EC number.

C. Shelving of first copies which have been abstracted.

I. First copies of ERIC documents which are to be reproduced are sent tothe ERIC facility and therefore not shelved in the library.

2. All other documents (not journals) which have been abstracted areremoved from the office of the Information Processing Supervisor aftergalley proof has been received for them; the documents are shelved by aclerk in the main library in EC number order.

D. Physical Processing of Journals

I. When assigning EC numbers to journal articles the cataloger writes thenumber next to the article in the table of contents.

After abstracting, when the Information Processing Supervisor hasreceived galley proof, the clerk removes the journals from that office andmicrofilms each abstracted article.

3. The clerk must prepare for each article a form containing the EC numberin bold print which will be photographed prior to the article to readilyidentify it.

1 7st;vti

4. After completion of filming of articles in each journal. articles are stampedMicrofilmed and the word Microfilmed is stamped on the Journal 0»ttainkAbstracted Articles sticker on the cover.

5. After the film has been developed and examined for faults. it is cut apart andeach article placed in a microfiche jacket. The LC number is typed onto thetop of the jacket which is then tiled in EC number order.

6. Journals which are to be kept for one volume year are shelved while thosenot to be retained are removed from the library.

XX. SENDING COPIES OF PUBLISHED ABSTRACTS FROM ECEA AND RIE

A. ECEA

I. When each new issue of ECEA comes out, a clerk cuts it apart in order tosend copki of abstracts to publishers. It may be necessary to cut apart threeor four copies in order to have two complete abstracts to send.

2. Abstracts of journal articles are not sent.

3. A form letter (Example 31) is stapled to the abstract. The letter specifieswhich issue of ECEA contained the abstract.

4. Letters are mailed to publishers.

B. RIE

1. When each monthly issue of R1E arrives, three copies of each page of the ECsection (which contains all abstracts submitted by this Clearinghouse) arexeroxed.

2. Pages are cut apart to produce three copies of each abstract.

3. Abstracts of documents are stapled to a form letter (Example 32) which ismarked to show whether copies are available from EDRS. The ED number ornumbers of the abstracts are included. An EDRS order form is attachedwhen the document(s) is available from EDRS.

231 8

XXI. NEWSLETTER ACQUISii ION

A. Form letters i,re used to rec;:b2st cflmrlinwntary copies of newsletters(Example $3).

B. A regularly upti:,ted computer printout record is kept or newsletters received.Information contained includes name of newletter, publisher and address. fre-quency. and cost (if any).

C. Incoming newsletters are routed directly to the Acquisitions Coordinator whoscans them for pertinent acquisitions, then stamps them Discarded Material.(Newsletters from Special Education Instructional Materials Centers, ERICClearinghouses, and some educational laboratories are filed).

D. Discarded newsletters are given to the Coordinator of Information Serviceswho peruses them, then places them in a slot in the Information Center mail-box for use by any staff member who wants them.

XXII. MISCELLANEOUS PROCEDURES RELATED TO ACQUISITIONS

A. Correspondence and Telephone

1. Correspondence concerning documents, journals, submission of materialfor RIE, and other matters pertaining to acquisitions is answered by theAcquisitions Coordinator. Examples are letters asking how to have docu-ments announced in R1E, requests to authors concerning incompleteinformation or citations within their documents, requests concerningpublications which may arise from conferences or projects, explanationsof acquisitions policy or procedures. inquiries about BEH approval ofdocuments, and other items.

2. The Acquisitions Coordinator serves as a liaison with the ERIC facility onprocessing problems and may receive or make calls relating to OperatingManual changes, directives from ERIC. duplications, or other problems.The AC also makes contact with the appropriate ERIC staff memberwhen requesting permission to submit something as a Quick AvailabilityDocument (QAD). Note: A document would be submitted as a QAD ifthere is an urgent need to have it announced and reproduced by ERIC asquickly as possible.

3. The Acquisitions Coordinator, when receiving complimentary copies ofdocuments. signs a Thank-You Ord (Example 34) and forwards it to theclerk with an envelope and the title and publisher of the book. The clerktypes in the book title or titles and maik the card to the publisher.

B. Preparation of Quarterly Report

The Acquisitions Coordinator prepares Section B of the ERIC QuarterlyReport.

The number of drteuments rectivro is determined by subtracting thehighest EC number assigned at the end ot the preceding quarter froin thehighest EC number a,..signed at the end of the current quarter ( bearing inmind that a block of numbers nii* be omitted in changing issues of.ECEAL To this figure is added the wtal number of documents whichwere rejected or transferred.

2. The number of unsolicited and solicited documents is estimated by usinga 20/80 percent breakdown.

3. The AC keeps a record of the number of documents reje :ted and trans-ferred.

4. The number retained for RIE is determined by adding the number sent toRIE and listed on log sheets during the current quartm plus the numberon hand to be sent to RIE. The number retained for local files is the totalretained (the number received minus the rejects and transfers) minusthose done for RIE.

5. The number submitted for RIE is the number listed on log sheets ofERIC shipments during the quarter.

6. The total processed for local file is the number retained for local file in 4above plus the number sent to RIE. There is no limited processing ofdocuments.

7. The backlog of documents on hand suitable for RIE is determined bycounting those not yet numbered and waiting to be cataloged for RIE.

XXIII. ABSTRACT FORMAT

There are 24 field possibilities for a given abstract. Each field name is preceded by (aand appears according to the following format:

Field 1 - 61 Category. The field name begins in card column 1. Information inthis field begins in card column 17 and consists of a 2-3 character alphacode for the disability area to which the abstract pertains. See sheetlabeled "Selected Categories for Acquisitions Cards" (Example 13) forall possible entries in this field. There is no printer's code for Field 1since it is dropped from all abstracts before they are sent to Photo Datafor typesetting.

Field 2- 4 ED. The field name begins in card column I followed by a space andthen the 6-digit accession number assigned to ERIC abstracts byLEAriCO. If the abstract is non-ERIC or if it is ERIC but has no EDnumber assigned at time of keypunching, the field name CI ED isfollowed by a space and then N.A.

Examples: ge ED 047 368 (if a number is available)

01 ED N.A. (for non-ERIC or number not yet received)

Field 3 - EC. The field name begins in card column 17 and is followed by aspace and the 6-digit accession number assigned to the abstract by theInformation Cataloger.

Field 4 - Publ. Date. The field name begins in card column 40 and is followedby a space and a 1-2 digit designation for day (if given), a 3-letterdesignation for month (if given) and a 2-digit designation for year.

Examples: Cz Publ. Date 10 Jun 71 (all data given)

g Publ. Date Jun 71 (month aiid year given)

Publ. Date 71 (year only given)

If no date information is given on the document. the InformationCataloger examines the document and estimates a date for it. Thisinformation is entered in brackets. but for typesetting purposes, thebrackets are keypunched as parentheses.

Example: ((z. Publ. Date [711 becomes qt Publ. Date (71)

Field 5 Field 5 is pagination information and begins in card column 63. Itconsists of (a followed by a space, the number of pages and p.

Example: la 273p.

*NOTE: Fields 2-5 all appear on the same IBM card when key-punched. These fields differ from other fields in that g is alwaysfollowed by a space before the field name. The printer's code for fields2-5 is a 1 in card column 71.

ti

It .

(

Field b- 01 Author I. The field name begins in card column I. Information inthis field begins in column 17 and consists of the name of the firstauthor, appearing according to one of the following formats: (1) Ifthere is only one author listed, the name will appear last name first.first name, and middle name(s) or initial(s) if given; (2) If two authorsare listed, the first author's name will appear the same us above,followed by a semicolon; (3) If there are more than two authors, onlythe first author will be listed, as in No. 1 above, followed by andothers. The printer's code for Field 6 is a 2 in column 71.

Examples: @Author 1 Smith, John F. (only one author listed)

@Author 1 Smith, John F.; (when a second author fol-lows)

@Author 1 Smith, John F. and others (more thantwo authors)

*NOTE: For printing purposes, it is necessary to insert capitalizationcodes in certain fields. The capitalization symbol for initial key-punching is < which is converted to a bar (1) by a computer program.The bar ( I ) is the only symbol for capitalization which can be used inabstracts sent to Photo Data for typesetting. Capitalization codes areneeded in Field 6 where a space does not precede a capital letter.

Examples: Mcl Dougall, Ronda

L'I Abate, Luciano

Where two or more initials are given in an author's name, it is necessaryto leave a space to ensure capitalization of initials.

Example: Fell, Ralph C. W. (no cap code needed)

Field 7 - @Author 2. The field name begins in card column 2. Information inthis field begins in column 17 and consists of the name of the secondauthor listed last name first, first name and middle name(s) or initial(s) ifgiven. The same capitalization and spacing rules apply to Field 7 asapply to Field 6. The printer's code is 2 in card column 71.

*NOTE: Authors' names may sometimes be accompanied by the des-ignation Ed., or Comp.

Examples: Fell. James, Ed.

Aprinter's code 3 appears in column 71 of all cards needed for the title.Capitalization Codes ( ) are needed foi the first word of the title andfor all other words except articles, prepositions and conjunctions, andof course, numerics. Where a word in a title is all caps, capitalizationcodes are needed for each letter.

Example: I The 1AI B1C's of I Sign I Language.

Field 9 - 'a:Institution I. The field name begins in card column 1 and the infor-mation begins in column 17. Additional cards may be used as neededto complete this field. Begin information on succeeding cards in col-umn 17 and do not repeat the field name. If more than one institutionis listed, end Field 9 with a semicolon. Printer's code for this field is 2in column 17. Capitalization codes are needed in this field only where acapital letter is not preceded by a space.

Example: Bureau of Education for the Handicapped

(1DI HIE1W), Washington, D. C.

Where initials appear in Field 9, leave a space between to ensure cap-italization.

Example: Washington, D. C.

For additional cardsneeded to complete the field, information begins in column 1 and aprinter's code 5 is entered in column 71. Capitalization codes areneeded at the beginning of every sentence and for captial letters withinthe body of the abstract.

XXIV. FIELD CODES FOR INITIAL KEYPUNCHING OF ABSTRACTS

Section XXIII has described in detail the final format of an abstract entry. However.for inital keypunching of an abstract, some simplifications have been initiated. Inorder to increase speed and accuracy, the keypuncher does not punch the completefield name for each of the 24 fields of an abstract. Instead, he substitutes an appro-priate 2-character code for the field name. These 2-character symbols are punchedbeginning in column I (except =E which begins in column 2) for each field. The FirstListing of a job will reflect use of these symbols for field names. In proofreading theFirst Listing, care must be taken to see that the correct symbol has been used foreach field. When a job is listed a second time, a computer program converts thesymbols to complete field names. The 24 fields of an abstract are listed below withtheir corresponding symbols.

XXV. USE OF CAPITALIZATION CODES IN ABSTRACTS AND INDEXES

To conform to Photo Data typesetting requirements, it is necessary to use capitaliza-tion codes in certain abstract fields and in the indexes. Guidelines for use of capcodes in abstracts are as follows:

Printer's Code 1 Field (Field 2), cap codes are never needed.

Printer's Code 2 Field (Fields 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 20, 21, and 22), use capcodes only where a letter to be capitalized is not preceded by a space.

Printer's Code 3 Fields (Field 8), use cap codes on the first letter of the firstword and all subsequent capital letters.

Printer's Code 4 Fields (Field 23, first card only), use cap codes only for propernames, races, countries, etc.

Printer's Code 5 Fields (Field 15, Field 23 (after first card), and Field 24 (afterfirst card)), use cap codes for all cap letters and at beginning of sentences.

Printer's Code 6 Fields (Field 24, first card only), use cap codes at beginning ofsentences and for all capitalized letters.

Printer's Code 8 Fields (Fields 16, 17, 18, 19), cap codes are never needed.

*NOTE: The cap code symbol for initial keypunching of abstracts is > . Acomputer pmgram converts > in the First Listing to I in the SecondListing. The symbol I is the only symbol acceptable to Photo Data foruse in the abstract. In keypunching corrections to the second and sub-sequent listings of abstracts, it is necessary to use 1 as the cap code.

The capitalization code to be used at all times in the Author, Title and SubjectIndexes is (I). This cap code is needed where capital letters are not preceded by aspace.

Examples: Institutionalized (/Persons)Council for Exceptional Children (/C/E/C)

XXVI. PROCESSING OF ABSTRACTS

Abstracts are arranged for keypunching in consecutive EC number order and aregrouped into batches of 50. Each group of 50 abstracts is designated a job number.Before a job is given to a keypuncher, a sheet is attached to the job which containsthe following information: job number, Exceptional Child Education Abstracts(ECEA) volume number and issue number for which the job is intended, and the EC(accession) numbers included in that job. (Example 33)

Keypunching Abstracts and ProceWng Cards

The keypuncher enters the abstracts onto IBM cards according to guidelinesoutlined in Section XXIII and gives the IBM cards for the complete job to theDirector of Data Processing (CEC). The original documents along with the copyfrom which the abstracts were punched are returned to the Information Pro-cessing Supervisor (IPS) who files them in EC number order in her office. Thedocuments will remain there until galley proof has been received from PhotoData, at which time the documents will be placed on permanent shelving in themain library with the rest of the collection. Journals will be handled according toprocedures outlined in Section XIX.

The Director of Data Processing lists the IBM cards for the job and gives theprintout to the IPS. This printout is designated First Listing. The First Listing isproofread by the IPS and assistants and corrections are marked on the printout.The printout is returned to the keypuncher who repunches all cards for whichcorrections have been indicated. The keypuncher then pulls all cards with errorsfrom the job and replaces them with the corrected cards. The cards for the jobare then returned to the Director of Data Processing who lists them a secondtime. After reading the Second Listing for errors, the IPS returns it to thekeypuncher who makes any additional corrections needed. The corrected cardsare clipped to the Second Listing and checked by the IPS before they are filed inthe job. When a designated number of abstracts complete the above process(number will depend on how many abstracts the IPS wishes to send to PhotoData for typesetting at a given time), a third and final listing of the abstracts isrun. The IPS spot-checks this listing for field and printer's code errors. When allerrors are corrected, the IPS notifies the Director of Data Processing to prepare amagnetic tape containing the designated number of abstracts to be sent to PhotoData (number usually varies from 350 to 400). The Director of Data Processingsubmits the magnetic tape and 2 copies of the printout of abstracts to the IPS.(Processing through Photo Data begins at this point and will be covered inSection XXIX)

XXVII. INCLUSION OF RIE ( ERIC) ABSTRACTS IN ECEA

Abstracts submitted to the Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC) Net-work for inclusion in its journal, Research in Education (RIE) are also included inExceptional Citild Education Abstracts (ECEA). For each weekly ERIC shipment,the Information Cataloger submits a copy of each abstract resume (Example 16). anda copy of the Log Sheet (Example 19) which accompanied the shipment to theInformation Processing Supervisor (IPS). The IPS modifies the ERIC abstract formatso that it is consistent with the keypunching format used for ECEA. Modificationsare:

A. Assign an acquisitions category to each abstract resume (Example 13).

B. In the box labeled ERIC accession number write the number assigned to theabstract by the LEASCO facility (ED number). If no number has been receivedwrite N.A. in this box. In nearly all cases, ERIC abstracts are keypunched forECEA long before an accession number has been received from LEASCO. If anumber arrives after the ERIC abstract has been keypunched but before it is sentto Photo Data for typesetting, keypunch the number in immediately. However, ifERIC accession numbers arrive after abstracts have been sent to Photo Data, adifferent procedure is necessary. In such cases, the IPS waits until all missingERIC accession numbers for a given issue arrive. A list is compiled of saidnumbers and submitted to the MTST operators who prepare them in accordancewith type style and size used by Photo Data. These numbers are then cut out andpasted on camera-ready pages with the appropriate abstracts.

C. In the author field, where an author's name is followed by a semicolon and "andothers", delete the semicolon.

Example: Smith, Jack E.; and others

Smith, Jack E. and others (correct)

D. Delete source code and sponsoring agency code when given.

E. Convert EDRS information as follows:

EDRS 0 becomes EDRS not available

EDRS 0.65;6 58 (or any other numerical designation separated by a semi-colon) becomes EDRS mf,hc

EDRS 0.65 (or any other numerical designation not followed by a semi-colon) becomes EDRS mf

XXVIII. PROCESSING OF INDEXES

When all ab%tracts designated for a given issue of Eveeptimial Child Educatims Ah-stra:ls comolet.' the process outlined in Section XXVI, the 1PS notifies the Directorof Data Processing te generate Author. Title, and Subject Indexes for the issue. TheDirector of Data Processing generates the indexes and submits a printout of same tothe IPS who edits them according to the following guidelines:

A. Author Index

1. When an author's name appears more than once and in varying forms in anindex, only one form will be allowed to appear.

Examples: Smith, John A. 112.

Smith, J. 203.

Smith, J. A. 416.

If the IPS determines that the three names listed above belong to the sameperson. a correction is made as follows:

Smith, John A. 112. 203, 416.

However, an author's name may appear more than once in an index if itoccurs followed by any one of the following forms: Ed., Comp., or and

if? others.

Examples: Smith, John A., Ed. 106.

Smith, John, Comp. 216.

Smith, John, and others 619.

2. In editing the Author Index it is sometimes necessary to insert capitalizationcodes (/), or to designate for repunching a name which has been truncatedby the computer.

Examples: D'/Antonio, Alonzo

(Insertion of cap code)

Mc/Donald, James

In the examples above, cap codes were inserted because a letter to be capital-ized was not preceded by a space. In the example below, a flame was re-punched because it had been truncated by the computer.

Example: Ferrarracio, Elizab Montgomery (truncated)

Ferrarracio, Elizabeth Montgomery (corrected)

4

IL. H. Title Index

Since the indexing system used Col. the ritle p:L;ilits only one card of thetitle to be printed, it is necessaiy to correct all Ei les on the index where morethan one card was reqkimd to punch the title in tht initial keypimd ,14. of theabstract. The IPS checks etkl: title listed in the ti air-st prI.:tout of theabstract to ascertain that th.E tiths apus nth:\ xactly as ii appears in theabstract. Corrections tr; out fully and completely on the print-out. In addition. :.ap mist be insertud in titles where capital letters are notprece.:led by a spave, and where an article preposition or conjunction follows acohn.

Example: C/E/C E/R/I/C's the Now Way to Know.

Mental Retardation: /A Bibliography.

C. Subject ;ndex

The IPS checks the Subject Index for misspellings, needed cap codes (/) andcomputer errors such as truncated words. The Subject Index is then edited bythe Coordinator of Abstracting and Indexing whose main concerns are to elimin-ate or combine superfluous terms and also to cross reference terms.

*NOTE: For Author, Title and Subject Indexes, a printer's code I appears incard column I for each entry. Data begins in card column 3. For entries whichrequire more than one card, the printer's code is not repeated on following cardsfor that entry. The data begins in column 3.

When all corrections to the indexes have been indicated on the printout, it is given tothe keypuncher for correction. The IPS checks all corrected cards, deletes from themaster deck those which are incorrect and inserts.the corrected cards. The Directorof Data Processing lists the complete indexes and submits two copies of the printoutto the IPS. The IPS spot-checks the printout for printer's code errors and alpha-betization. Nhen all corrections have been made, the index cards are transferred to amagnetic tape which is sent to Photo Data.

XXIX. PROCESSING THROUGH PHOTO DATA

When a designated numlwr of abstracts or indexes are ready to be sent to Photo Datafor typeset ting, the Information Processing Supervisor (IPS) writes a memo to PhotoData describing the nature of the job. Included will he the volume and issue ofExceptimull Child Education Abstracts ( ECEA) for which the abstcacts/indexes areintended, the abstract numbers contained in the magnetic tape, and instructions forpasting up pages (running feet, running heads, date, page numbers and sectionheadings). If galley proof is desired by a particular date, that date should be indicatedin the memo. A copy or the memo (one copy kept in the !PS's file) is attached to themagnetic tape and the IPS arranges for it to be picked up by Photo Data.

Within a period of time determined by the production schedule for ECEA (Example36) the IPS will receive galley proof from Photo Data for those abstracts or indexessent out. The IPS will read the galley proof, and using standard proofreading symbols(see Government Printing Office Manual). will mark corrections to be made by PhotoData. The galley proof is then returned to Photo Data where corrections are madeand abstracts and indexes are pasted up into cameni-ready pages. Photo Data returnsthe camera-ready imps along with all galley proof to the IPS, who cheeks eachcorrection indicated on the galley proof against the camera-ready pages to see that allcorrections have been made. When all camera-ready pages for a given issue have beenreceived and checked by the IPS, the issue is ready to send to the printer.

XXX. PRINTING PROCEDURES FOR ECEA

Approximately six weeks before an issue of Exceptional Child Education Abstracts(ECEA) is to npear, the Information Processing Supervisor (IPS) begins gatheringmaterials for correcting and updating the introductory pages of the journal. The IPSconsults the Coordinator of Abstracting and Indexing to determine whether journalshave been added to or deleted from the list of those indexed for the ERICpublication Current Index to Journals in Education and whether there have beenadditions to or deletions from the list of those journals granting the CEC InformationCenter permission to use author-written abstracts. The IPS also consults theAcquisitions Coordinator to determine whether new journals have been acquired, andif some previously abstracted journals have been dropped. The IPS also examinesrecent issues of ERIC Management Notes for latest information on the status of otherERIC Clearinghouses, changes in EDRS ordering policies and procedures, or newERIC products which may need to be announced in ECEA.

Utilizing all these sources of information, the IPS prepares copy for the printer,indicating what additions, deletions and/or corrections need to be made on the coversand front matter pages of ECEA. The copy is prepared according to standardeditorial procedures for copy preparation. The copy is sent to the printer along witha memo from the IPS delineating the issue for which the copy is intended. If anyunusual artwork or significant amounts of new material are to be prepared by theprinter, instructions should be included in the memo as well as on the copy itself.

3 I

4

Within five to ten days after receipt of the copy. the printer will send galley proof forthe (men and front matter pages to the IPS. who will check the galleys against copyto make sure that all corrections and additions/deletions have been made. If coverand front matter pages have been satisfactorily prepared, the issue is ready forprinting. The IPS sends camera-ready copy for the contents of the journal to theprinter, along with a memo designating the nature of the job and a date for deliveryof blue line proof. From five to ten days after the printer receives the camera-readypages, he will send blue line proof to the IPS, who checks to see that all pages andsections are in the right order and that pages are clear and legible. The blue lineproofs are also checked by the Director of CEC Publications. If blue line proofs aresatisfactory they are returned to the printer along with a memo specifying number ofjournals to be printed, number to be delivered and number to be kept in storage, anda date for delivery. (If any corrections are needed, these are indicated on the blue lineproof and described in the memo.)

XXXI. CORRECTING MASTER FILE OF ABSTRACTS

When a given issue of Exceptional Child Education Abstracts (ECEA) is completed(i.e., sent to the printer), the IPS makes final corrections on all abstracts in that issueso that they can be added to the master ECEA computer file which contains abstractsin previous issues. This is accomplished in two ways:

A. Using the final listing of abstracts for a given issue, the IPS writes in ED (ERICaccession) numbers for those abstracts missing them at time of initialkeypunching. All ERIC abstracts must have ED numbers before they can beadded to the master file.

B. Referring to galley proof received for the issue, tbe IPS checks each correction .1

indicated on the galley proof against the printout oi abstracts (final listing) forthat issue. If an error is found to be a keypunching error rather than an erroroccurring during processing at Photo Data, the IPS indicates the correction to bemade on the printout. When all corrections and additions have been marked VAthe printout, the keypuncher punches correction cards, which are checked by theIPS and given to the Director of Data Processing who corrects the master fileaccordingly.
