- As I was shelving, I came across a congressional hearing from
- 1991. We only select a few of the Congressional hearings in paper, and
- this committee was new to me, so I looked in the 1991 Andriot's to see how
- long this committee had been in existence. Turning to page 1158, I looked
- up the number. I read:
- P 93/2 Printing (House) 1887-1946
- P 93/3 Printing (Senate) 1886-1946
- P 93/4 Investigate Public Printing (Senate) 1860
- P 93/5 Private Land Claims (House) 1887-1910
- P 93/6 Privileges and Elections (Senate) 1884-1944
- P 93/7 Private Land Claims (Senate) 1957
-
- I then accessed the Silver Platter CD-ROM, and using the index, discovered
- that there are two items with this class: the two part hearing, and a
- rule book.
-
- If it is cataloged under "Prisoner", then shouldn't this class be
- Y 4.P 93/8? And if under "POW", shouldn't it be Y 4.P 88?
-
- Is there a logical (ha!) explanation why GPO put this under Y 4.P
- 93/2? Will GPO correct it, if they are at fault?
-
- If it weren't for the SuDoc number mistakes, shelving would be very boring.
