The Regent's Park College Library is a member of OLIS. We estimate that 75% of our holdings are on OLIS. This includes all current accessions since 1997. 100% of the holdings in the Main Library (23,800) and the David Nicholls' Collection (3619) and an estimated 50% (18,468) of the holdings of the Angus Library, including 80% of the pre-1800 holdings and 15% of the 19th and 20th century holdings, are on OLIS. Approximately 20% of pre-1800 holdings, and an estimated 85% of 19th and 20th Century holdings in the Angus Library, as well as all periodicals are not on OLIS. Retrocon of the Main Library and the David Nicholls Collection was completed in 2001. RSLP projects have enabled the cataloguing of pre-1800 foreign titles and 3,400 19th Century pamphlets in the Angus Library. Further ESTC records should be added with corrected shelfmarks in due course. The remaining 19th and 20th Century holdings in the Angus Library are slowly being catalogued, but there are currently no plans for the cataloguing of periodicals in any of the libraries.
The OLIS catalogue uses shortened forms of library names to give details of an item's location. The following table lists these codes for the Regent's Park College Library.
