Happy Friday!

I'm new to the world of cataloging serials.  I have a bound genealogical
periodial that covers 1954-1961 called the "Ansearchin news".  OCLC does
have several records for the title,  and I saved the record that is an open
one into CatME.  I am unsure of how to handle the record since our library
only appears to own this one volume.   Should I just import the record into
Dynix as is and let the holdings speak for themselves?   I have several
issues of very old genealogy society newsletters that have the same
situation.

I would very much appreciate any help anyone can give.  I'm the only
serials cataloger here and can't really get any help from any of my
co-workers (no serials experience).

Thanks,
Laura
