TitleLeaf

Update CIP data

Cataloging-in-Publication (CIP) data originates from the Library of Congress. TitleLeaf has various product fields to hold the entirety or segments of that data.

  • CIP - The entire Cataloging in Publication text Ref
  • LCCN - Library of Congress Control Number Ref
  • LC Class - Library of Congress Classification Ref
  • Dewey - Dewey Decimal Classification Ref
  • Annotation - A short description the book

To update those fields, the publisher can:

  • Enter the data through the web admin (this is probably the simplest solution if you only have a couple products to update)
  • Pull data from LOC.gov: Go to the product page, click the "Update" icon above the "LOC Control Number" field. This process populates the following fields if they are blank: LCCN, LC Class, Dewey, and Annotation. To verify the data beforehand, click the "External Link" icon next to the "Update" icon

  • Use a subset of the products or products-cip template. As with any template, you can delete any non-required columns that aren't relevant to your data set.
