Include both "shelflisted" records and documents or other item records that have been integrated in the OPAC. EXCLUDE order and acquisitions records; INCLUDE preliminary, partial or in-process records if the items represented could be made available to a user. In general, it is assumed that one record represents one title. Include records for materials in a storage building off- or on-campus if those materials were originally, AND CONTINUE TO BE, owned entirely by your campus. EXCLUDE records for non-local materials to which you have access through resource-sharing agreements, such as materials at the Center for Research Libraries or in a multi-campus facility. If you have loaded records for individual articles from periodical indexes, such as the Wilson indexes or MEDLINE, exclude those records from the count.
