IUCAT Location Displays (Music Library)

IUCAT Location Displays: What do they mean?

IUCAT location displays can tell you where to find an item and what circulation policies are connected with it. Use the list below to help you match IUCAT displays with information about access to the Music Library's collection.

NOTE: In some instances, you may find several location codes connected to one bibliographic record. This simply means the library owns several copies of the same item and has placed them in different locations with different access policies.
