CALL NUMBERS
The most basic classification is TX 714 (General recipe collections, 1800-).
The majority of Franklin Collection cookbooks either are generically American collections TX715, or fall into one of these broad areas:
  • By regional/cultural/ethnic style (cf. TX715-725)
  • For particular holidays, occasions, or meals (mostly TX733-TX739.2)
  • Featuring particular foods (cf. TX741-TX819)
  • Using a particular method or appliance (cf. TX681-TX693, TX821-TX840 and TX656+)
  • For particular dietary restrictions (mostly RM214-RM258)
    Check the class numbers on OCLC copy, especially older copy. Shelflist all callnumbers against OSCAR. Include dates in callnumbers

    COLLECTION NOTE and COLLECTION TITLE ENTRY
    Routinely add a 590 Local Note and 793 Local Title Added Entry:
            590 OSU's c.1 part of the Peter D. Franklin Cookbook Collection
            793 0 Peter D. Franklin Cookbook Collection
    If you are cataloging on OCLC Prism, there is a Constant Data record called "cookbook" (or use your own Constant Data record). Don't forget to add 590 and 793 also when you are adding added-copies directly onto OSCAR (and use the correct copy-number).

  • Particular holidays, occasions, or meals
  • Particular dietary restrictions
  • Cooking for particular categories of people or settings
  • Different periods of history
  • Using a particular method or appliance
  • Written by particular categories of authors

    Retain Field 655 genre terms found on OCLC copy.

    Specific ingredient or dish
    Most of these follow the pattern Cookery, ([type of food])
    Examples:
    Cookery (Baby food)
    Cookery (Moose meat)

    Check the Authority File when you are assigning headings.
    There are nearly 300 headings already established in this form for specific foods or categories of foods. If the heading you need is not already established, don't make one up (but the new heading may be proposed through SACO).
    Do not subdivide geographically
    Note that in the Prism Authority File sca(n) su(bject) search the () parentheses do affect the search & must be included.

    Here are some headings for foods/ingredients which do NOT follow the general pattern:
    Beverages
    Condiments
    Confectionery
    Convenience foods
    Fried food
    Frozen foods
    Kosher food
    Leavening agents
    Marzipan
    Pancakes, waffles, etc.
    Pizza
    Risotto
    Salads
    Sandwiches
    Sauces
    Snack foods
    Soups
    Stews
    Stocks (Cookery)
    Stuffed foods (Cookery)
    Tortillas

    Regional/ethnic style of cuisine
    Most of these follow the pattern Cookery, [geographic or ethnic group]
    Examples:
    Cookery, Albanian
    Cookery, Chinese -- Cantonese style

    Check the Authority File when you are assigning headings. There are over 100 headings already established in this form, some with subdivisions for sub-regional styles. If the heading you need is not already established, don't make one up (but the new heading may be proposed through SACO).
    Note that in the Prism Authority File sca(n) su(bject) search the comma does affect the search & must be included.
    Not subdivided geographically. You will see a lot of older records with geographic subdivision through an ethnic cuisine (eg. Cookery, American -- Ohio). This is incorrect and should be split to two headings (Cookery, American. and Cookery --Ohio).

    These headings for ethnic/geographic styles are exceptions to the general pattern:
    Afro-American cookery
    Cherokee cookery
    Inca cookery
    Indian cookery
    Kitksan cookery
    Mexican American cookery (USE FOR Tex Mex)
    Pueblo cookery
