Fixed Fields

DtSt: Type of Date/Publication Status

  • Code e - Detailed date
    • Only use code “e” for technical reports.
    • When adapting an existing record for a monograph that is not a technical report:
      • Leave code “e” in the OCLC master record, but remove for export to Aleph.

Variable Fields

020 – ISBN

The ISBNs of different formats of a resource may appear on one manifestation of that resource. For example, the ISBN of the online version may appear on the print copy, or, the ISBN of the print version may appear on the online version. The ISBNs of all versions that appear on any format of a resource may be recorded in the 020 field in the record of that resource.

  • Record only the ISBN of the version being cataloged in ǂa.
    • Add each of the other ISBNs in a separate ǂz.
    • Add qualifiers that appear on the resource in ǂq.
    • When no qualifier is present, add an appropriate qualifier in ǂq.
    • When a publication does not contain an ISBN and the GPO Bookstore website lists one, it may be included in the record.
    • Record canceled and invalid ISBNs in ǂz.
      • Errors which are “structurally invalid”, such as mistakes in the ISBN
      • “Application invalid”, such as incorrectly assigned numbers

037 – Source of Acquisition

  • See GPO Sales Information in Bibliographic Cataloging: Overview.

088 - Report Numbers

  • Record letter/number strings that do NOT qualify to be either Standard Technical Report Numbers (027 MARC field) or series (490/8XX MARC field) in the 088 field.
    • Also record such strings in a quoted note in the 500 field.
  • Record report numbers following GPO spacing conventions:
    • A space or a mark of punctuation separates numbers from letters.
      • Exception: A space always precedes an opening parenthesis and follows a closing parenthesis, unless there is another punctuation mark together with the parenthesis, in which case there is no space separating them.
    • One space appears before and after symbols, such as & and +.
    • A space follows a period in strings containing such terms as no., v., and pt.
    • Transcribe punctuation exactly as it appears on the document.
  • Record chronological information, such as Sept 1988, rev. 5-89, that follows letter/number strings only in the 500 field.
  • When multiple numbers appear on a document, enter each in separate 088 and 500 fields.
  • Do not end the 088 field with a period.
  • Do not use quotation marks.
Example:

On publication: OTA-89-10 (8-89)

088 OTA-89-10

500 "OTA-89-10 (8-89)."

Types of Numbers NOT Recorded in the 088 Field

  • Not all series-like phrases are recorded in a 088 field.
    • Such phrases may be recorded in a 500 field.
    • Numbers Only
      • Record only in a 500 field.
      • Numbers identifying a document for sale or distribution by agencies other than GPO may be recorded in the source of acquisition field (037 ǂa).
    • Letters Only
      • Record only in a 500 field.
    • Combinations of Numbers and Letters without Recognizable Meaning
      • When the letters are not at the beginning of such combinations, record only in a 500 field.

Mail Stop and Routing Codes

  • These codes, such as M-49 for the Transportation Library, are not report numbers.
    • Since they do not identify an individual document, do not record them.
    • Exception:
      • When a routing code is followed by unique numbering that identifies a specific document, the code may be transcribed.
Example:

On publication: HHP-22/6-85 (1M)QE. Recorded because identifies a specific publication.

088 HHP-22/6-85 (1M)QE

500 “HHP-22/6-85 (1M)QE.”

245 ǂc - Statement of Responsibility

See reference to 245 ǂc - Statement of Responsibility (SOR), Single Statements of Responsibility in Bibliographic Cataloging: General MARC Field Policies, Monographs – Not Technical Reports

  • Such publications may contain statements of responsibility such as "Sponsored by ..." and "Prepared for ..."
  • Follow the instructions in Bibliographic Cataloging: Technical Reports, 245 ǂc – Statement of Responsibility.

250 - Edition Statement

  • The OCLC Duplicate Detection and Resolution program merges records when the basic description, such 245 and 264 fields, is the same.
  • When cataloging a new record whose description is the same as an existing record:
    • Supply an edition statement in brackets (RDA 2.5.1.4 and 2.5.2.1).
    • As needed, include a 130 or 240 unique title to break work authorized access point conflicts.
Example:

CGP 000895171

110 1_ United States. ǂb Department of Justice. ǂb Attorney General's National Task Force on Children Exposed to Violence, ǂe author.

240 10 Defending childhood (Executive summary)

245 10 Defending childhood : ǂb protect, heal, thrive : report of the Attorney General's National Task Force on Children Exposed to Violence.

250 [Executive summary edition].

Language Editions and Translations

GPO Practice

  • Apply CONSER definitions and guidance for language editions and translations to monographs.

Language editions

Language editions are

  • issued by the same body
  • published simultaneously or nearly simultaneously

GPO Practice

  • Link language editions although PCC instructions declare these linkages to be optional.
    • Exceptions
      • When there are four or more language editions:
  • Only the record for the original language expression is linked to all related language expressions.
  • Records for non-primary language editions link only to the original language edition.
  • Use “Issued also as:” in 775 ǂi.
Example:

Separately published language editions

CGP 1036879

086 0 HE 20.7002:M 59/2/2017

245 00 Track your child's developmental milestones.

037 PIN:049442-000 ǂb DA

775 08 ǂi Issued also as: ǂt Track your child's developmental milestones. Spanish. Siga de cerca los indicadores del desarrollo de su niño ǂw (OCoLC)1015202079

775 08 ǂi Issued also as: ǂt Track your child's developmental milestones ǂw (OCoLC)1015201767

When explicit translation statements appear on resources that match the definition for language editions, apply these guidelines instead of those in the Translations section below.

Example:

Three separately published language editions with explicit translation statements

Parallel text edition

For a parallel text edition, use MARC 730 (Added Entry – Uniform Title) fields to represent each expression.

Example:

Parallel text edition

CGP 969331

  • Cataloging Guidelines: Bibliographic Cataloging: General MARC Field Policies: Language Editions

Translations

Translations are

  • issued by an entity other than the issuing body of the original expression
  • published at a later time

Link translations with original language expressions via MARC 765 (Original Language Entry) and 767 (Translation Entry) using relationship designators “Translation of” and “Translated as,” respectively.

Example:

For recommended definitions for Language Editions and Translations that are adopted for monographs, see:

  • CONSER Cataloging Manual, 14.3.1: Horizontal relationships: Translations and language editions.

For instructions and examples, see:

  • PCC Relationship Designator Guidelines Task Group Report, Appendix D.4: Translations.

Multipart Monographs

GPO creates comprehensive description records for multipart monographs.

If all parts of a multipart set are available at the time of cataloging, then close the record.

Various parts of a multipart monograph might become available at different times. If all parts are not available at the time of cataloging, then the comprehensive description record remains open.

When in doubt about the completeness of availability of the parts of a multipart monograph, keep the record open.

Base description upon the available part with the earliest designation.

Upon availability of a part with a lower designation than the one upon which the description was based, update the MARC 588 (Description Based On Note) if any descriptive elements are added or changed.

If analytical records are identified for ten or fewer than ten parts of a multipart monograph, then collapse them into a comprehensive multipart monograph description.

If analytical records for parts of a multipart monograph number more than ten, then consult with a supervisor, as for other complex situations, to determine optimal treatment, such as whether or not to collapse the records.

Analytical Access Point(s)

Exercise judgment about whether to provide (or not) an additional access point(s) with relationship designator Container of (work) (from RDA Appendix J.2.4) for each part or selected parts. The decision can be based on such factors as high research value, historical value, and/or expert knowledge of the targeted community or audience.

Example:

CGP 979489

086 0 I 29.2:T 73/2/V.1-2

245 00 Honoring tribal legacies : ǂb an epic journey of healing / ǂc edited by CHiXapkaid, Ella Inglebret, Stephanie Wood.

505 0 v. 1. Foundation document for honoring tribal legacies -- v. 2. Guide to designing curriculum honoring tribal legacies.

730 02 ǂi Container of (work): ǂa Foundation document for honoring tribal legacies.

730 02 ǂi Container of (work): ǂa Guide to designing curriculum honoring tribal legacies.

Reminder: 700/710/711/730 are controlled fields and thus require unique access points.

Revised Editions

Definition / Context

Revised editions, sometimes referred to as “chronological editions,” comprise changes and updates to the content of the previous edition. Revisions are not to be confused with reprints, which are additional printings of essentially the same document. The extent and significance of the changes discerned within the revision determine its status as either an expression of the earlier edition or as a new work. Changes in scope and/or authorship are crucial considerations for this determination.

For criteria that characterize works and expressions based on extent and significance of changes, see:

  • Detailed Instructions and Examples for Revised Editions (below)
  • Reser, Dave. RDA Special Topics: Revised Editions of Monographs. December, 2011.

Precataloging Decision-making

Answer the following questions to determine cataloging treatment for revised editions:

  1. Is the revision a new expression or a new work?
  2. What is the appropriate construction of the authorized access point for the revision?
  3. How will revised and earlier editions be linked in catalog records?

For decision-making, the cataloger need not compare all editions directly. Surrogates, including OCLC records, may suffice for editions not accessible for inspection.

Logistical Note for Bibliographic File Maintenance for Multiple Editions

It is not necessary to perform bibliographic file maintenance for existing records to provide linkages for the complete sequence of revisions in either the database of record (CGP) or the consortial database (OCLC).

  • Cataloging Guidelines: Bibliographic Cataloging: General Policies: Distinguishing Works and Expressions with Identical Authorized Access Points: Chronological Editions
  • Bibliographic Cataloging: General MARC Field Policies
  • PCC Relationship Designator Guidelines Task Group Report, Appendix D.2: Revisions and Later Editions.

Detailed Instructions and Examples for Revised Editions

Question 1: Is the revision a new expression or a new work?

Assume that a revised edition represents the same work and thus is an expression. Exception: If any of the following conditions are met, then consider the revised edition to be a new work. Find instructions for cataloging labelled “New Work …” that follow instructions for new expressions.

  • The revised edition has a new creator (in the case of a single creator).
  • The revised edition loses the primary creator in the case of multiple creators (but not if the primary and secondary author are merely re-arranged).
  • The revised edition expresses significantly different scope of content than the previous edition.

Question 2: What is the appropriate construction of the authorized access point for the revision?

Situations below are given in order of likely prevalence of their occurrence.

New Expression – Revision and earlier edition share all common authorized access point elements

If the revised edition is a new expression and shares a common title and creator(s) with the original edition

  • Construct an authorized access point (AAP) and do not differentiate it from the AAP for the earlier edition. The revision and earlier edition(s) will have identical AAPs. GPO does not consider it important to distinguish the particular expression in the authorized access point for the revision (as given in RDA 6.27.1.5) in these cases.
  • Provide MARC 775 (Other Edition Entry) with the relationship designator “Revision of.”

New Expression – Revision with different title proper

If the revision is a new expression and does not share the preferred title for the work, then

  • Transcribe title proper of the revised edition in MARC 245.
  • Add MARC 130/240 (Uniform Title) for the title of the original work/earlier expression.
  • Provide MARC 775 (Other Edition Entry) with the relationship designator “Revision of.”

New Expression – Revision’s authorized access point constructed according to a different descriptive convention

If the revision to be cataloged is an expression that would have a different authorized access point in its RDA record only because the earlier edition was cataloged under AACR2 (e.g., for which the appearance of more than three authors dictates title main entry), then

  • Construct an authorized access point for the new expression according to RDA
  • Provide MARC 775 (Other Edition Entry) with the relationship designator “Revision of” that points to the AACR2 record, which will reflect a different AAP

For an example and more detailed instructions, see slides 20-21 of RDA Special Topics: Revised Editions of Monographs.

New Work – Revised edition with a new primary author

When cataloging a revised edition and there is a new primary author and the original primary author no longer appears on the resource, treat the revision as a new work:

  • Construct an authorized access point for the new work according to RDA
  • Provide an added entry to the earlier work by an appropriate field – MARC 700/710/711/730 (Name/Title or Title Added Entry) – and provide a relationship designator from RDA’s “Relationship Designators for Related Works,” e.g., “Based on ,(work),” “Adaptation of (work),” etc.

For an example and instruction, see slide 18 of RDA Special Topics: Revised Editions of Monographs.

New Work – Revised editions with the same title proper and primary author (or editor) and new content

If the revision introduces substantial new content to render it a new work even if its title and author (or editor) are the same as the original work:

  • Construct an authorized access point for the new work according to RDA. Distinguish identical AAPs, if necessary, by additional identifying element(s) in MARC 130/240 (Uniform Title).
  • Provide an additional access point for the earlier work by an appropriate field – MARC 700/710/711/730 (Name/Title or Title Added Entry) – and provide a relationship designator from RDA’s “Relationship Designators for Related Works,” e.g., “Based on (work),” “Adaptation of (work),” “Summary of,” etc.

Ambiguous Status – Appearance of additional authors

If the revised edition has additional authors, then evaluate the extent to which content has changed to determine whether the revision is a new expression or new work. Either status is possible. If only the order of the same authors changes between revisions (e.g., reversed first and second positions in statement of responsibility), then disregard their order as significant lacking any other indication(s) of substantial changes.

Summaries

Summary included within resource being cataloged

Catalog the full report and its summary together when the summary is provided within the full report.

Add a 500 note in the bibliographic record:

Example:

500 ǂa Includes summary.

Exercise judgment about whether to provide an additional access point for the summary that is contained within the main work. Substantiality of the summary is the likeliest consideration for the decision to provide an additional access point.

If an additional access point is provided, then use the relationship designator “Container of (work),” as demonstrated below, in a MARC 700/710/711/730 (Name/Title or Title Added Entry) field.

Example:

CGP 921091

Summary included within report

100 1 Buzby, Jean C., ǂe author.

245 14 The estimated amount, value, and calories of postharvest food losses at the retail and consumer levels in the United States / ǂc Jean C. Buzby ; Hodan F. Wells ; Jeffrey Hyman.
500 Includes summary.

700 1 ǂi Container of (work): ǂa Buzby, Jean C. ǂt Estimated amount, value, and calories of postharvest food losses at the retail and consumer levels in the United States (Summary)

Summary separate from resource being cataloged

Catalog a summary separately from the full work when the summary is published in either a separate tangible format or in a separate electronic file from the full report.

Link separately published full and summarized works. Provide MARC 700/710/711/730 (Name/Title or Title Added Entry) fields using reciprocal relationship designators “Summary of (work)” or “Summary of (expression)” and “Summarized as (work)” or “Summarized as (expression).”
