Subject: Spine formats for binding

Hello,

    I was wondering if anyone has standards for the spine formats of
classed journals to be bound.  We us the LC format for call numbers but
we also include volume information (e.g. volume, number, yr....).  I
have found one document that implies that all volume information should
be placed in the call number as a cutter.  During binding we have always
put some of this information in the middle of the spine, between the
title and call number and some under the call number (as a cutter).  Is
this out of the LC standards?  Should all the information be under the
call number?

Thank you,
