title change or no? (Mitch Turitz) Marcia Tuttle 18 Aug 1995 00:03 UTC
---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 17 Aug 1995 16:54:43 -0700 From: Mitch Turitz <turitz@MERCURY.SFSU.EDU> Subject: title change or no? (fwd) I am forwarding the attached message from Autocat. My first thought was to try to see if anyone else (on either Serialst or HaSafran) has the title in question and to see how they have dealt with it. I may respond to this later, if no one else does, but I think this may involve going over the LC rule interpretations in chapter 12. I seem to remember something about "whenever the VOLUME NUMBERING STARTS OVER WITH VOLUME 1" you are supposed to re-evaluate the title as a POSSIBLE title change (even if the title remains the same). The concern had something to do with the possible change in subject coverage which is often indicated by a change in the numbering by the publisher. Since it is 5 to 5pm right now, I think I'll wait until tomorrow to look it up. -- Mitch _^_ _^_ ( ___ )-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-( ___ ) | | | | | | Mitch Turitz, Serials Librarian | | | | San Francisco State University Library | | | | Internet: turitz@sfsu.edu | | | | | | ( ___ )-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-==-( ___ ) V V "Outsourcing is a desperate remedy for management failure, not the criticism of catalogers." -- Michael Gorman, "Crisis in Subject Cataloging and Retrieval" June 25, 1995, ALA Conference, Chicago ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 17 Aug 1995 14:57:22 MDT From: YVONNE STROUP <YSTROUP@alexandria.lib.utah.edu> To: Multiple recipients of list AUTOCAT <AUTOCAT@UBVM.cc.buffalo.edu> Subject: title change or no? The Hebrew review and magazine of rabbinical literature ceased publication with vol. 3, no. 78 (July 22, 1836) according to OCLC Record # 6989696. I have a journal with the same title that began with new series vol. 1, no. 1 (Oct. 21, 1859). The original journal had the Hebrew title ha-Gal'ed at the head of the title on the volume title page only. The new title has the Hebrew title ha-M'asef at the head of the title on the volume title page only. My question is, with that long a period between v. 3, no. 78 and n.s., v. 1, no.1, do I need to make a new record for the new series? Or do I just want to edit the 362 field in the old record?
