Summary
Guidelines for selection General Collections Materials for
Special
Format Materials (SPEC MAT) collection.
Approved by
Nadal 2022 12 27
Based
on the following documents:
-
LCR 2-410: Custody of Materials in the Library of Congress – this
document defines what Custody of materials means. It identifies CMD as
Custodial of the General Collections.
-
G620 from Cataloguing Notebook on line – this document contains
the ABA guidelines for processing Spec Mat Materials. https://www.loc.gov/aba/publications/FreeCSM/G620.pdf
Background:
Special
Format Materials (SPEC MAT) collections are materials that cannot be handled or
stored easily on shelves and/or are too vulnerable by reason of fragility or
value to be served in General Collection Reading Rooms. Spec Mat items must be
served in a reading room where additional security is available, currently the
Adams Reading Room.
All
SPEC MAT materials will be evaluated by Conservation Division and rehoused by
CD as needed.
The following categories constitute a Spec Mat item:
- Books
containing items that are NOT attached such as buttons, puzzle pieces, compasses,
a doll, piece of jewelry, non paper item(s) in a firmly attached pocket (such
as a ruler or 3D glasses)
- Books that
have complex or extensive fold-outs (e.g. leaves with more than one fold
in them, or any volumes with multiple fold outs)
- Movable
’pop-up’ or ‘lift-the-flap’ books
- Accordion-folded
pages that are not attached to the spine
- Any
items containing unbound plates, ie. plates in a portfolio
- Boxed
sets (with multiple loose items
within the case)
- 3-ring
binders or any binder that opens such that pages can come loose
- Miniature
books, i.e. books that are 5 inches (13 cm) or less in height and/or
width.
The following categories DO NOT constitute a Spec Mat item:
1. Books with
attached items such as securely glued photographs, chains, metal cut-outs, etc.
2. Books
with a firmly attached pocket containing paper items such as maps or other
printed material, excluding plates
3. Books with 1
fold out that only has one fold in it (aka simple fold out)
- Books with a spiral binding,
covered or uncovered
5. Books with non-printed
media (CD’s, DVD’s)
6. Books made of
non-paper materials (plastic, wood, cloth)
- Books with fuzzy/furry/sandpaper/texture
covers, sides or pages
- Books with sections of the
pages cut or punched out (Cut-out books)
- Books with shifting and
changing pictures (holograms, etc.)
