Required Cost-Sharing and Other Commitments from Applying Institution:

To receive MVS funding, the library of the applying institution must make the following commitments:

  1. To fund either 25% or 50% of the purchase price in yen as determined by the MVS Committee, and to pay all shipping, handling, insurance, taxes, and all other charges related to acquisition of the set.
  2. Any institution receiving MVS support must submit orders for purchase of the approved sets to the designated Tokyo agent, the Japan Publications Trading Company (JPT), as soon as possible but no later than one month after receiving notice of support.
  3. The recipient library must agree to provide prompt full-level cataloging, including necessary data in Sino-Japanese original script as well as in Romanization, of materials acquired through MVS in WorldCat, as soon as possible but no later than June 30, 2010. Each MARC record should contain the following note in the MARC 500 field: "NCC-funded title; to be lent locally and nationally according to normal ILL procedures. |5 [MARC institution code]"

Note: Each institution receiving MVS funding should substitute the institution's actual code for [MARC institution code]. Also, MARC institution codes are *not* always the same as the OCLC holding symbols. E.g. 500 NCC MVS-funded title; to be lent locally and nationally in accordance with normal ILL procedures. |5 PPiU.
