- At Michigan we converted all volume holdings to 899. As we update
- holdings for monographs the 899 is changed to 866 and the appropriate
- tags for supplements and indexes added. For serials, we will change
- the 899 to 866 and add index and supplement tags as we change holdings
- from the summary to the detailed level. This has worked fine for
- us particularly since our supplements and indexes in volume holdings
- were not identified in such a way that allowed their proper
- identification. Our decision to update the 899 to 866 was based
- on using the correct MARC tag and the ability to display labels
- for indexes and supplements.
