[LM_NET] HIT: Cataloging question (graphic)

["Kane, Barbara" <Barbara.Kane@SWMS.WNYRIC.ORG>]

My original request: 

I have a question about the pre-processing dewey number for a book I
just received:  It's Macbeth, from Barron's Picture This! Shakespeare
series.  It came with an (expected) 741.5 number because it's a graphic
version of the classic tragedy, but I'm inclined to change it to an 822.
Any thoughts?

 

The consensus was to change the classification to place the item within
the subject covered...not just with this item, but with all graphic
versions.

 

If I missed thanking you personally, thank you for your help!

Barb
