Subject: Coding Items for BCL, OAT,etc.

I wondered if anyone had attempted coding books in a collection
according to their appearance in bibliographies such as Books for
College Libraries, Outstanding Academic Titles, etc.

We used the WLN Conspectus a few years ago, but wanted to label items on
our Millenium system perhaps using a special field from which we could
create our own lists.  There are a number of bibliographies we are using
for special subject areas, as well, and were thinking about coding them.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
