Serials Title that can't decide what it is Jean Shankle 18 Feb 2005 16:12 UTC

I have a question for those of you who do the cataloging of periodicals and
what this title would be considered....I keep putting this off because I am
stuck!

AV Video Multimedia Producer has changed.  From how the publisher says it in
his letter on the first page (and it is a letter written by the publisher
Scott Gentry, vice president); they ceased AV Video.  And then started
Studio/monthly up as a new magazine.  Quoting "AVVMMP is gone and in its
place we've built something new......we re-engineered a new magazine from
the ground up: studio." and in the last paragraph "flip through and get a
feel for what our new magazine is all about."  Then on the front cover they
call this first issue of Studio for January 2005 their "premier issue."
THEN they give it the volume number 27.  AV Video's last volume was 26, so
they are kept the volume numbers for Studio going from AV Video.

I first thought it would be a title change.  EBSCO is calling it a merge.
As I re-read it I have changed my mind.
It looks to me like AV Video would be considered ceased and Studio would be
considered a new title.

Those of you in authority with the cataloging; what would you call this?
I really appreciate your help!!

Thank you.
Jean
