The SN is based on the proposed scope notes of "College catalogs" and "School catalogs," both of which are NTs of "Academic catalogs."
"Academic catalogs" is currently in two hierarchies, "Conditions of publication" and "Purpose of work." I would suggest adding its BT, "Catalogs" to the hierarchy, "Purpose of work." "Catalogs" is currently only in the "Conditions of publication" hierarchy. The "Purpose of work" hierarchy would then look like: Purpose of work - Reference works - Catalogs - Academic catalogs.
