Definition

 Call numbers or class numbers based on LC Classification schedules and the NLM Classification schedules. If the call number is assigned by an agency other than NLM, you may use field 060 or Field 096

If you have NLM authorization, you may add NLM call numbers to most master records.

If you assign a National Library of Medicine classification number according to the NLM class schedules, use Field 096 or field 060 with indicators "14". If the classification portion of your number does not conform to the NLM class schedules, use Field 099.

Guidelines
NLM and LC copy

Enter spaces as shown on NLM or LC copy. For classes W1–9, no space intervenes between class letters and class numbers. For other classes, NLM uses a space between class letters and class numbers. LC does not use a space.

LC or NLM cataloging copy may include two NLM call numbers, the second in brackets following the first. Use field 060 subfield ‡a for the first NLM call number. Use a second subfield ‡a for the second NLM call number. Do not enter the brackets.

Cataloging copy Enter
W1 P658 no.6 1977 [WM 420 P971p 1973-75] 060 00 W1 P658 no.6 1977 ‡a WM 420 P971p 1973-75

If you use such a call number for card production, only the first call number (first subfield ‡a ) prints. If you prefer the second call number, delete the unwanted call number from field 060 or enter the preferred call number in Field 096.

On some cataloging copy, the NLM call number follows the NLM subject headings. Use the appropriate fields for call numbers and subject headings.

Cataloging copy Enter
[DNLM: 1.Brain Damage,Chronic--in infancy and childhood. 2.Psychological Tests--in infancy and childhood. W1 NO17D] 060 00 W1 N017D 650 2   Brain Damage, Chronic ‡x in infancy and childhood 650 2   Psychological Tests ‡x in infancy and childhood

For most nineteenth century titles, the class number assigned by NLM has letters only. Enter such numbers as follows:

060 0 0 WBA G816p 1897

1st indicator

 Existence in NLM collection. Indicates whether the item is in NLM's collections.
blank character No information provided
0 Item is in NLM.  (From NLM copy only)
1 Item is not in NLM

2nd indicator

blank character No information provided. Obsolete. Do not use.
0 Assigned by NLM.  (From NLM copy only)

Subfields
‡a Classification number

Enter the complete NLM call number or only the NLM class number.

‡b Item number

Subfield ‡b is optional. You may use subfield ‡a to enter the entire call number. NLM does not use subfield ‡b .

Printing
  This section describes printing of NLM call numbers from field 060 and Field 096. See " 050–099  Introduction to Call Numbers" for more information. Field 060 and Field 096 print for institutions profiled for NLM call numbers. A new line begins for each blank space in the field.The print program treats the subfield ‡b as a blank space for call number formatting. Characters to print on one line must not exceed the margin size which is two characters fewer than the first indention.
