Noreen Fish noted that EBSCO indicates Threads has changed its title to
Taunton's Threads, that "Taunton's" appears in small type above the
title (and has for some years), yet title information on the contents
page and statement of responsibility just say "Threads."  She asks if
anyone can shed light on this.

Noreen,

AARC2 rule 12.1B3 states:
"In case of doubt about whether a corporate body's name or an
abbreviation of that name is part of the title proper, treat the name as
such ony if it is consistently so presented in various locations in the
resource and/or as found in indexes, abstracts, or other sources."

Since the corporate body's name is not appearing consistently in various
locations in the resource, this seems not to be a title change.  I don't
know why EBSCO is now calling it one.
