Cataloging Blu-ray videorecordings

For the CCS catalog, Blu-ray discs are cataloged the same as DVDs, with the following exceptions:

Date1
All Blu-ray discs must have a Date1 field that is 2006 or later. This is because 2006 is when the first Blu-ray discs were released.
007
Code 007 ‡e as s
Example:
007  vd csaizk
GMD (245 ‡h)
Qualify the GMD with "(Blu-ray)".
Example:
245 ... $h [videorecording (Blu-ray)] ...
When adding a GMD qualifier in records with non-Latin text in 880 fields, be sure to edit the GMD field in the corresponding 880 field, too.
Edition (250)
Follow the CCS guidelines for videorecording edition statements. Do not include an edition statement of "Blu-ray" or "Blu-ray disc".
Example:
250  25th anniversary ed.
Physical description (300)
When cataloging Blu-ray discs in the CCS database, follow national practice and use either "1 Blu-ray disc" or "1 videodisc" for the extent.

Region codes

Blu-ray regions are different from DVD regions. Instead of numbered regions, Blu-ray regions are referred to by letters. However, some discs (especially discs from 2006 and early 2007), may use region numbers rather than letters.

Some Blu-ray discs may have a lot more technical requirements than most DVDs.

Example:

538  Blu-ray, region A; 2.35:1 widescreen presentation, 1080p high definition, AVC 24 Mbps; DTS HD5.1 master lossless audio, 5.1 Dolby Digital.

Notes fields and call number analytics

Blu-ray discs sold with accompanying DVDs, DVD/Digital copy combo discs, or Digital copies require contents notes locally to accommodate the subfield z combinations and facilitate holds in the online catalog. See the Multivolume call numbers page for more information on formatting the contents note and the call number analytics.

Blu-ray discs sold with accompanying DVDs, DVD/Digital copy combo discs, or Digital copies also require:

500  Accompanying material may vary.

Blu-ray + DVD combo packs

See Blu-ray + DVD combo packs for details on how to handle cases where the publisher packages a Blu-ray version and a DVD version of the same movie in a single set (or on a single disc).

Example records

  • ocn206473645 (Mr. and Mrs. Smith)
  • ocn220894830 (Walk hard : the Dewey Cox story)
