Statistics are kept for every title and unit catalogued in Voyager. They are generally captured with a program run on the 948 field. Therefore, it is important to add a 948 field to every bib record once you have completed any of the following transactions with that record:
Please note that all work should be completed before a 948 field is added.
The 948 field consists of the following subfields:
948 ‡a <date: yyyymmdd> ‡b <initials> ‡c <type of cataloging
code> ‡d <number of titles>
‡e <number of units, including 1> ‡f <prescribed note> [when applicable] ‡g <format code> [when applicable] ‡h <PCC code> [when applicable]
‡k <accompanying material number and
format code>
[when applicable] ‡r <Rush code>
[when applicable]

948 ‡c: Type of Cataloging Codes
Used for code indicating level or category of copy or other cataloging transaction. Make sure that it is correct; edit if necessary.
If more than one type of transaction is involved (e.g., reclassifying and adding, recataloging and adding), multiple 948 fields are needed.
These codes, representing the level or type of cataloging, should currently be put in the 948 ‡c subfield. (In older records, you may also find them in the 948 ‡a subfield.)

The 948 ‡h subfield is used to record PCC cataloging, when we create a PCC BIBCO record or upgrade a record in OCLC to PCC BIBCO or enhanced serial record status.
(Between 7/1/1999 and 9/11/2001, the PCC codes appeared in the 948 ‡f notes subfield. The BIBCO codes were implemented 7/1/1999; the CONSER enhance code was implemented in 2003.)

Record in the 948 ‡k subfield information on accompanying material when it is housed separately from the main piece. It should come after ‡f, ‡g, and ‡h. Specify:
For any type of accompanying material not on this list, check with the Assistant Head of Cataloging Librarian.
Put information about multiple types of accompanying material in a single 948 ‡k subfield.
E.g. Book with 1 CD-ROM:
948 ‡a 20080405 ‡b wst ‡c o
‡d 1 ‡e 1 ‡k cdrom
E.g. Book in 2 volumes, with 4 audio CDs;
PCC upgrade cataloging:
948 ‡a 20080808 ‡b rmw ‡c o
‡d 1 ‡e 2 ‡h pcc ‡k 4 cds
E.g. Book with 1 CD-ROM and 1 DVD-ROM:
948 ‡a 20080717 ‡b dpm ‡c ow
‡d 1 ‡e 1 ‡k cdrom + dvdrom
E.g. Videorecording: Set of 8 DVDs,
with 1 insert to be housed separately from any DVD container (because it covers
the entire set):
948 ‡a 20080516 ‡b bds ‡c o
‡d 1 ‡e 8 ‡g dvd ‡k book
E.g. Videorecording: Set of 3
videotapes, with 2 guides to be housed separately from the videos:
948 ‡a 20080516 ‡b bds ‡c o
‡d 1 ‡e 3 ‡g tape d ‡k 2 books
Please note: The number of accompanying items in the 948 ‡k may not be the same as the number of containers in which we are storing them, so it may not match the number of item records. It should reflect the number of accompanying items listed in the holdings record 866 or 866s, ‡a.
E.g. 866 ... ‡a 1 v. + 4 DVD-ROMs ‡z
<DVD-ROMs in 2 containers>
948 ... ‡k 4 dvdroms
E.g. 866 ... ‡a 1 v. + 2 DVDs + 1 CD-ROM
‡z <DVDs in 1 container>
948 ... ‡k 2 dvds + cdrom
Do not use 948 ‡k for accompanying material that is kept with the main item. Instead, record it in the item record pieces count.

Add code when applicable. This subfield should go at the end of the 948. This list is in priority order, both for cataloging and for applying the code.
