I would like to echo the previous messages touting the use of the
ANSI/NISO and MARC standards for holdings statements.  Using standards
makes your life so much easier.

If you would like to look at some holdings already in the ANSI/NISO
format, please feel free to peruse our catalog at:

http://ublib.buffalo.edu/libraries/e-resources/bison/

Both current check-in and bound holdings use the ASNI/NISO format and
punctuation. We use Level 4 holdings.

Good luck!
