Content notes – Special situation: information not coming from titles of chapters

This is an alternate approach that can be used depending on how the materials are reported in the book and/or wishes of reference librarian.

Use 520 2# (2 = Scope and content)

Format the note so that important titles, entities, or events are keyword searchable.

520 2# Case histories of the following emergency evacuations and entrance disasters: Iroquois Theatre fire, Coconut Grove Night Club fire, Hartford Circus Fire, Beverly Hills Supper Club Fire, The Who concert stampede, Trans World Airlines jet crash, World Trade Center bombing.

520 2# Includes: Walden, selections from The Maine woods, Cape Cod and Miscellanies, and Excursions and Poems.
