Mary has a good point here, I do think local practice/policy should help
guide in this decision. Just this week I had to tackle Angie's exact
situation, we received two copies of a scanned map to be cataloged, one for
each of our University Park map collections. In our case, the scanned
copies were considered "copies" or "duplicates" of the original map,
therefore a 590 note was added to the record for the original map
indicating the presence of the two scanned copies and two holdings records
at the item level were created in order to place the barcode and location
information into the record so that our patrons will see this information
when they call up the record in the OPAC. We did not go as far as to
separately designate the scanned copies through the use of an additional
term to the end of the call number, but thats a great idea too.

I wouldn't say the way that we handled this was either right or wrong, just
the way we looked at the situation and got the work done in an efficient
manner. Perhaps we will have to revisit the issue in the future if we start
seeing many more scanned copies to be done...
