KEY DEFINITIONS

Alternative numbering. A secondary numbering scheme used in designating a series of continuously published issues of a publication.

Basic bibliographic units. Primary bibliographic unit for which holdings are being recorded. Examples of basic bibliographic units are a book, a multivolume encyclopedia, a computer file, a map, a score, a set of orchestral parts, and a publication with separately titled constituent parts. A bibliographic entity composed of several bibliographic units where one does not predominate is considered to have multiple basic bibliographic units; for example, a multimedia kit or a musical score and parts.

Caption. An alphabetic word or phrase attached as a prefix to the enumeration data that describes the type of data (for example, volume, Band, Heft, part, number, or tome)

Compress. To record a range of holdings in terms of the enumeration and/or chronology of only the first and last parts held. Yale policy is that data elements may be compressed only if there is not a gap in the level or levels to be compressed.

Detailed holdings statement. Set of data elements required for Level 4 holdings to identify and record, at the most specific level of information, the parts of a bibliographic unit held by a particular institution. Yale generally applies when recording receipts and incomplete holdings, or for the holdings of some rare or special collection serials. Cf. Mixed; Summary holdings statements.

Fascicle. Temporary part intended to be bound with other parts to form a permanent bibliographic volume.

Gap. A break or discontinuity in the sequence of enumeration or chronology, or both, of the multipart held.

Mixed holdings statement. Holdings statement with a combination of summary and detailed levels of enumeration and/or chronology data.

Nongap break. A gap between the recorded enumeration and/or chronology units caused by unpublished units or discontinuity in the publisher’s numeration.

Secondary bibliographic unit. Discrete bibliographic unit that is supplementary or complementary to a basic bibliographic unit or to another secondary bibliographic unit. Example: a guide accompanying a multipart set of videocassettes. An "equal" bibliographic component of a set of differing units, such as a multimedia kit or a musical score and parts, is considered a basic bibliographic unit. Individual parts of a multipart unit are considered parts, not secondary bibliographic units.

Summary holdings statement. Holdings statement at the first (highest) level of enumeration and/or chronology. Yale policy is that data elements are recorded as summary holdings statements only if there is not a gap at any of the specific levels of the hierarchy. Where gaps occur, a mixed holdings statement is used. Cf. Detailed; Mixed holdings statements.

VOYAGER MFHD

Yale uses the Voyager MFHD to record holdings for multiparts. The Voyager MFHD stores data according to the MARC 21 Format for Holdings standard. At this time, Yale is using MARC 21 field 866 (Textual holdings-Basic Bibliographic Unit) to record volume holdings for multiparts rather than fields 853-855 (Captions and Pattern) and 863-865 (Enumeration and Chronology)

Volume holdings in 866 are transcribed following the American National Standard (ANSI)/NISO (National Information Standards Organization) Holdings Statements for Bibliographic Items standards (ANSI/NISO Z39.71-1999; abbreviated to ANSI for citation purposes). Yale decisions on ANSI options as they apply to multiparts are recorded in this document.

NOTE: although receipt statements for serial issues are created in field 866, this procedure is not used for multiparts, since issue binding does not apply.

For fixed field policies, see MFHD Policies & Procedures, 2.1-2.3

1. LEVELS OF SPECIFICITY

Yale policy is to create volume holdings for multipart monographs even if holdings are complete at the time of cataloging. ANSI Level 4 is used:

"Level 4 provides detailed extent of holdings information. The detailed holdings statement may be either itemized or compressed; the detailed holdings statement may be either open or closed. ... If enumeration [is] applicable, the most specific levels (including all hierarchical levels) must be included."* For Yale policy on itemization vs. compression, see Section 4. below. Yale policy for multiparts is that holdings are never left open.

HISTORICAL NOTE: ANSI Level 1 ("no indication of extent of holdings") was used for microform reproductions of complete multipart works and some recon titles. CURRENT PRACTICE: Holdings for single basic bibliographic units (e.g. a single volume monograph) are not recorded. If a single basic bibliographic unit has an accompanying secondary bibliographic unit, holdings are generally not created.

ANSI Level 2 ("general guidance as to the extent of the institutions' holdings") and Level 3 ("summary extent of holdings") are not used.

* Yale holdings are recorded at mixed levels, generally using summary extent when all parts within a range are held, and detailed holdings when parts are incomplete. For workflow purposes, all holdings statements are coded at Level 4. For detailed scope notes on Levels 1-4, see ANSI p. 15.

2. BASIC PRINCIPLE FOR RECORDING EXTENT OF HOLDINGS

"When the extent of holdings is explicitly recorded, this standard requires the recording of those pieces held rather than of those pieces not held." (ANSI p. 2, 1.2.4. Pieces Held) See also ANSI p. 26: "Record and display data in a positive sense; that is, emphasize that which is held rather than that which is not."

3. PUNCTUATION

Use prescribed punctuation when recording holdings.

ANSI STANDARDS summary for punctuation and display as applied to multiparts (incorporating Yale option applications and modifications):

Angle brackets. (<2nd ed.>) "Specific extent." Can be used to record edition statements in mixed ed. situations and to clarify format of accompanying material (<sound disc>) Use a blank space before and after the angle brackets. See Section 8, example 8-5a and Section 10c. Colon (:). "Separates two orders or levels of hierarchical bibliographic units." The hierarchy order should be from higher to lower. Blanks are not used before or after. Comma (,) denotes a break or a gap in a range Equal sign (=) "Separates alternative numbering schemes. Blanks are not used before or after the equal sign." Used for multiparts within classed together series. See Section 9, example 9-8. Forward slash (/) denotes more than 1 bibliographic volume published in 1 physical volume. See Section 9, example 9-5. Hyphen (-) denotes unbroken range Plus sign (+). If the option to record accompanying material is used, precede holdings statement for accompanying material with a plus sign. Use a blank on either side of the plus sign. See Section 8, examples 8-5 and 8-6. Quotation marks. When the name of a unit needs to be recorded, usually in the absence of a part number, the name of the unit is recorded in quotation marks. See Section 9, example 9-9 or Section 8, example 8-5. Semicolon (;) denotes a nongap break. See Section 5-2. Caption is transcribed consistently before each appropriate enumeration. Square brackets are used to enclose supplied enumeration. Blank space before and after square brackets, unless used in conjunction with other punctuation that forbids blank before/after, e.g. equal sign, comma, hyphen, parentheses. See Section 7, example 7-8. NO SPACE before or after punctuation. New line (i.e. new 866) for gap or change in enumeration

4. COMPRESSION (ANSI 5.5.1.2) AND LEVELS OF ENUMERATION (ANSI 5.5.4.1)

Multipart holdings are compressed and recorded at the highest level of enumeration (summary statement) whenever possible. A hyphen is used to indicate compression.

However, part holdings must be recorded at detailed level when the set is incomplete at subsequent levels of enumeration. Also, keep in mind that the standard states:

"If it is necessary to record both first-level and subsequent level enumeration in the holdings statement, repeat all levels of enumeration at the beginning and end of each range held." (ANSI p. 29).

In the following example, each volume is in 2 parts. Vol. 4, part 2 is not held. Although v. 1 is complete, the subsequent enumeration level is recorded following the standard. Since vols. 5 through 7 are complete, the range is recorded at the most general level.

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1:pt.1-v.4:pt.1,
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.5-v.7

For volumes issued in parts intended to be bound when the volume is complete (e.g. fascicles, lieferungen), part-level detail must be eliminated when the volume is complete. Note that itemized statements (rather than compression) were used for the highest level of the hierarchy to avoid recording subsequent enumeration levels for the completed volumes.

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.2:fasc.1-v.2:fasc.4,
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.3

NOT:

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1:fasc.1-v.1:fasc.12
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.2:fasc.1-v.2:fasc.4,
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.3:fasc.1-v.3:fasc.12

However, with multipart monographs it is recognized that there may be situations when compression cannot be performed or might cause significant workflow problems. In certain broad situations, catalogers have the option of recording holdings data in itemized (non-compressed) form, e.g.:

• Recon records, where earlier holdings were not recorded using ANSI standards and conversion to the ANSI standard would be very time consuming or require re-examination of the earlier volumes
• Holdings for locations that do not use item records, e.g. Beinecke. (In the absence of item records, the detailed breakdown of the physical items owned can only be captured in a non-compressed holdings field)

Otherwise, for sets with volumes in parts not intended to be bound when the volume is complete, it is not required that holdings for the set be compressed and part-level detail be eliminated when the set is completed. Generally a set with uncomplicated numbering is recorded as a general summary statement; for a set with irregular part numbering, cataloger judgment will determine whether or not to use a summary statement. Cf. Examples 5-3c-d below.

Although the standard now permits open-ended holdings statements, Yale policy is not to use such statements for multiparts.

5. GAP AND NON-GAP BREAKS; LINE BREAKS

When volumes are added, Yale practice is to enter a new 866 field, the equivalent of a "line break," under the following circumstances:

5-1. WHEN A GAP OCCURS. The line preceding the new 866 field should end with a comma:

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a Bd.1-Bd.5,
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a Bd.7

5-2. WHEN A NON-GAP BREAK OCCURS. A non-gap break in enumeration may be caused by units that were never published or some other irregularity in the numbering scheme caused by the publisher. According to the standard, a non-gap break is represented optionally by the use of a semicolon.

Use a semicolon followed by a line break (i.e., new 866 statement) primarily to indicate where units were never published.

EXAMPLE 5-2a. Set complete; information from publisher available that v. 4 was not published.

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1-v.3;
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.5

EXAMPLE 5-2b. Volume mis-numbered by the publisher.

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1-v.3;
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.3 [i.e., v.4];
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.5

5-3. USE OF LINE BREAK WITHOUT COMMA OR SEMICOLON. If conditions warrant recording holdings in itemized form, and neither a gap nor a change in numbering occurs between items, the standard does not use punctuation at the end of the 866 field when the items are recorded in separate 866s. (See ANSI p. 45, example 28)

EXAMPLE 5-3a. No change in the numbering scheme from volume to volume, but cataloger chose to display each volume in a separate volume holdings statement rather than to compress because the location does not use item records.

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1:pt.1-v.1:pt.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.2:pt.1-v.2:pt.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.3:pt.1-v.3:pt.2

EXAMPLE 5-3b. Change in numbering scheme at v. 2; because the set is small, and because the parts are bound separately, the cataloger itemized in order to bring out the part detail. (Remember that if parts are bound in a single physical volume, the part detail is not recorded. See Section 4. on fascicles.)

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.2:pt.1-v.2:pt.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.3

EXAMPLE 5-3c. In the absence of publisher information, cataloger may be unsure whether v.1:pt.3-v.1:pt.4 and v.3:pt.4 may be wanting or may not exist. Compression (v.1-v.3) may cause ambiguity if v.1:pt.3 were added.

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1:pt.1-v.1:pt.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.2:pt.1-v.2:pt.4
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.3:pt.1-v.3:pt.3

AMBIGUITY. When volumes and parts are issued without captions, compression may cause ambiguity; for purposes of clarity separate 866 fields may be preferable.

EXAMPLE 5-3d. Compressed form (ambiguous):

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a 1:1,
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a 2-3:1,
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a 3:3-4:1,
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a 5

EXAMPLE 5-3e. Same volume holdings, itemized for clarity:

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a 1:1,
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a 2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a 3:1,
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a 3:3
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a 4:1,
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a 5

EXAMPLE 5-3f.

In this case converting the recon holdings information to ANSI standards would probably require examination of the volumes, so the recon data is left as found, and a new line denotes the change in enumeration display to the standard. (Catalogers should NOT retrieve previously cataloged volumes in order to revise the entire MFHD to ANSI standards!)

Since the pre-Orbis volumes may not have item records, the part detail captured to some degree in the pre-ANSI volume holdings statement would also be lost if the holdings were summarized in ANSI form. In most cases, the part detail for the volume added on Orbis and displayed in summarized form in 866-2 will be recorded in the ENUM field of the item record, e.g. ENUM t.5:1 and ENUM t.5:2.

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1:1-4:2		recon
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a t.5		vol. added on Orbis

6. CAPTIONS (ANSI 5.5.4.2)

Caption. A word, phrase, or abbreviation indicating the parts into which the publisher has divided the multipart. Examples: "volume," "Band," "Teil," "part," "tome."

6-1. Recording captions is optional (ANSI p. 29). Yale applies the option.

6-2. "Transcribe captions associated with enumeration in the vernacular form appearing on the publication, transliterated when needed. Record captions in the singular. Optionally, captions may be translated. If the parts of a unit have no captions, do not supply captions." (ANSI p. 29)

Yale does not apply the translation option, i.e. if the caption is Bd., use Bd. as the caption rather than v.

EXCEPTION: East Asia and Near East cataloging translate captions instead of transliterating.

6-3. Per ANSI Z39.71-1999 (p. 30), if an AACR2 caption abbreviation is available, the abbreviation is used. ANSI option if no abbreviation in AACR2 is "other standard lists or ISO 832 rules." With Voyager Yale will now apply both the AACR2 and ISO abbreviations in MFHD. If the caption abbreviation is not listed in either AACR2 or the ISO list, it must be transcribed in full, unabbreviated form. Use of additional lists need to be documented; touch base with the Chief Cataloging Librarian. CAUTION: only AACR2 abbreviations may be used in the bibliographic record.

AACR2 abbreviations are on the Cataloging at Yale page/Tools & Resources at:

http://www.library.yale.edu/cataloging/abbrev.htm

Combined AACR2 and ISO abbreviations are available on the Cornell Technical Services page:

Cornell AACR2/ISO caption abbreviation list

Use lowercase for captions unless the language of the caption (e.g. German nouns) requires an uppercase first letter.

6-4. If a symbol (e.g. #) is used as a caption and it has a recognized textual equivalent, record the textual equivalent; use the AACR2 abbreviation if listed (ANSI p. 30).

Caption on piece: #1. Record in 866 as:

866

4

1

‚8 0 ‚a no.1

6-5. If enumeration follows an unabbreviated caption (i.e., no end punctuation), leave one space between the caption and the enumeration (ANSI p. 30)

In the following example, there is no authorized abbreviation for Heft and it is transcribed as is. Since there is no end punctuation, a space is entered betwen Heft and 1.

866

4

1

‚8 0 ‚a Heft 1

6-6. "Captions need not be repeated after the hyphen. However, captions may be repeated after the hyphen when needed for clarity." (ANSI p. 30)

Yale practice is to repeat the caption in all instances to promote standardization:

866

4

1

‚8 0 ‚a Heft 1-Heft 2

6-7. "Record captions beginning with a lowercase letter unless the language of the caption requires an uppercase letter." (ANSI p. 30)

tome 10	becomes	t.10
number 2	becomes	no.2
Band 3	becomes	Bd.3

7. ENUMERATION

ENUMERATION. Data indicating the sequential numeric and/or alphabetic designation used by the publisher of the multipart to identify the individual bibliographic or physical parts and to show the relationship of each part to the bibliographic unit as a whole.

7-1. SUPPLIED ENUMERATION. "If the bibliographic item does not carry enumeration, do not supply it." (ANSI 5.5.4 Enumeration, p. 28). YALE LOCAL PRACTICE: If enumeration has been supplied to volumes of a multipart by the cataloger on the bibliographic record (with bracketed numbers in 505), use the bracketed numbers as a basis for recording holdings in 866; record the vol. numbers with brackets.

505

‚8 0 ‚a [2]-[10]

NEW: To facilitate association with item records, the new policy will be to supply enumeration for unnumbered non-print parts if their individual containers are barcoded or could be barcoded, e.g. microfim reels, videocasettes, DVDs. Note that this deviates from ANSI 5.5.3 Extent of Unit, p. 28. Formerly, if unnumbered, only the total number of items held was recorded for original publications. Continue to record unnumbered microfiche as a total number of items. (See Examples at 8-2 and 8-3)

7-2. Record enumeration by giving the caption followed by the sequential designator (i.e., the number ; ANSI 5.5.4 p. 28). If the enumeration on the item uses ordinal numbering, with the number preceding the caption, convert to cardinal numbering in order to place the caption first. (ANSI 5.5.4.3 option p. 30-31)

Item in hand has designation: 3. Teil. Record in 866 as:

866

4

1

‚8 0 ‚a T.3

NOTE: former practice was to record ordinal numbers as is with caption following the number, e.g. 3. Teil.

7-3. If the parts have hierarchical enumeration, record the sublevels following a colon when the situation warrants recording of sublevels. See 5. Compression above.

7-4. "Convert all numeric information to Arabic numbers" (ANSI p. 30).

VII	becomes	7
sixth volume	becomes	v.6

7-5. If typographic or other designations are used on the item in place of numbers, convert them to numbers if they have direct numeric equivalents (ANSI p. 32):

First volume has *; second volume has **:

866

4

1

‚8 0 ‚a 1-2

Note: ANSI example has captions, but unless the item has " v. * ", do not supply captions.

7-6. "Record uppercase and lowercase alphabetic characters as they appear on the item" (ANSI p. 31):

866

4

1

‚8 0 ‚a 23a

 

866

4

1

‚8 0 ‚a no.36B

 

866

4

1

‚8 0 ‚a v.B

Yale will apply the option to romanize nonroman alphabetic data.

7-7. "When a bibliographic item is used with combined numbering--not when bound together after receipt--separate the numbers by a forward slash." (ANSI p. 31). If a caption is used, record the caption for the first number only.

866

4

1

‚8 0 ‚a v.5/6

7-8. "When a part of an otherwise numbered unit lacks numeric or alphabetic designation, it may be supplied in square brackets" (ANSI p. 31):

Itemized form:

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a [Bd.1]
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a Bd.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a Bd.3

Compressed form:

866

4

1

‚8 0 ‚a [Bd.1]-Bd.3

7-9. Record an incorrect numeric designation as found, with the correct form in square brackets preceded by "i.e." (ANSI p. 31):

Itemized form:

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.2;
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.2 [i.e. 3];		Volume 3 was incorrectly numbered by the publisher; semicolon to denote irregularity
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.4

Compressed form:

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1-v.2;
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.2 [i.e. 3];
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.4

7-10. If the holdings are closed, no punctuation follows the closing enumeration. Yale does not apply the option to end the statement with a final hyphen if the holdings are open.

8. SPECIAL PROCEDURES FOR MICROFORMS AND NON-PRINT ITEMS

8-1. If a microform set is a reproduction of a single work,

• record bibliographic volumes in 866
• record physical parts (reels or microfiches) in field 533
• NOTE: former practice was to record bibliographic holdings in 866 only if the set was incomplete

EXAMPLE 8-1a:

‚8 0 ‚a v.1-v.8

8-2. If a microform set is a collection of reproductions, record the number of physical items (e.g. reels, fiche) in 866. LOCAL YALE PRACTICE: For unnumbered microfilm reels, supply enumeration in square brackets preceded by reel. Record holdings holdings for unnumbered microfiche as a total count or, if the number of pieces is large, an estimate. (ANSI 5.5.3 Extent of Unit, p. 28)

EXAMPLE 8-2a. A collection of titles previously published separately in hard copy. The reels in this example are not numbered.

‚8 0 ‚a no.1-no.100

NOTE: if multiple titles are reproduced locally on a single reel, do not treat as a collection. Each title should be cataloged separately, with the same call number and location used in copy holdings. In that case, volume holdings will only be appropriate for an individual title if the original title was itself a multipart monograph.

8-3. If a microform set is original, record the number of physical items (e.g. reels, fiche) in 866. LOCAL YALE PRACTICE: For unnumbered microfilm reels, supply enumeration in square brackets preceded by reel.

EXAMPLE 8-3a. In this example, the microfiches are numbered.

NOTE: for large microform sets, especially microfiche, the caption and numbering used in the guide may be more useful for adders (and the user) than the caption and numbering used on the piece (e.g. the header). If the guide is more helpful than the piece, use the guide to create the volume holdings. For an example, see the Orbis record for the Chadwyck-Healey microfilm set The nineteenth-century (Orbis 774882 (bib)/888917 (MFHD) (old NOTIS no.AEE1685).

 

8-4. LOCAL PRACTICE: For other unnumbered, multipart non-print items, record the specific class of material to which the units belong followed by cataloger supplied enumeration in square brackets. Use a standard term from AACR2 (rule 5, chapters 2-11) for a specific material designation (SMD); the correct term will usually be in the 300 field. However, If the 505 contents note on the bibliographic record has cataloger supplied part numbers, record the cataloger supplied enumeration instead.

EXAMPLE 8-4a. No 505; default local practice for non-print items used to record unnumbered parts.

9. ORBIS 866 FIELDS FOR MULTIPART MONOGRAPHS: ADDITIONAL EXAMPLES

For purposes of comparison, some examples show volume holdings for completed multipart monographs in itemized as well as compressed general summary statements. In general, the example using the summary statement or the mixed summary/detailed statement should be used, but for sets with complex numbering, e.g. 9-3, 9-6, itemized form may be preferred.

EXAMPLE 9-1. 6 v. in 12 (complete; volume to part relationship regular; each volume in 2 parts)

Itemized form:

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1:pt.1-v.1:pt.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.2:pt.1-v.2:pt.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.3:pt.1-v.3:pt.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.4:pt.1-v.4:pt.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.5:pt.1-v.5:pt.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.6:pt.1-v.6:pt.2

EXAMPLE 9-2. 6 v. in 12 (same physical configuration as EXAMPLE 9-1 but incomplete; each volume is in 2 parts; v.3:pt.2 and v.5:pt.1 lacking)

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1-v.2		Compress part details rather than: v.1:pt.1:pt.2-v.2:pt.2
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.3:pt.1,		use comma to denote v.3:pt.2 lackting
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.4,		Part detail for v. 4 compressed; use comma to denote v.5:pt.1 is lacking
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.5:pt.2-v.6:pt.2		If subsequent level enum. must be used, it must be used at both beginning & end of range. See Section 4 above.

EXAMPLE 9-3. 5 v. in 11 (complete; volume to part relationship irregular)

ORBIS volume holdings (complete) in itemized form.

866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.1:pt.1-v.1:pt.2		v. 1 is in 2 parts
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.2		v.2 is a single volume
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.3:pt.1-v.3:pt.3		v. 3 is in 3 parts
866	4	1	‚8 0 ‚a v.4:pt.1-v.4:pt.4		v. 4 is in 4 parts

Comment. Note that for a completed set in compressed form, only the first element of the enumerative hierarchy needs to be recorded. Elimination of the part detail in this case may not be helpful.

EXAMPLE 9-4. 5 v. in 11 (Physical item configuration is the same as in EXAMPLE 9-3, but the set is incomplete; set wanting v.1:pt.1, v.3:pt.2, ). In this case itemized form is preferred to avoid ambiguity.

EXAMPLE 9-8. Classed together multipart as part of a classed together monographic series.

Multipart title is Chronik der Stadt Stuttgart; it is part of the classed together series Veröffentlichungen des Archivs der Stadt Stuttgart.

In 852 ‡z enter the standard note Shelved by the volume number of the main series.

Current practice is to record the series vol. number after an "=" to the right of the bibliographic vol. number. In ANSI, the equal sign represents "alternative numbering scheme;" there should be no spaces on either side of the equal sign. Update MFHDs as new volumes are added unless the number of 866 fields is very large; in any case use the "=" for all additional 866 fields. In general, do not compress even if there are no breaks in the series numbering. Remember that users will need to identify the series number to retrieve a particular volume from LSF; a compression range will not facilitate identification of the series number. If the multipart set is small and there are no breaks in the series, compression may be considered.. Source: ANSI, p. 3 (Definition); p. 11 (use of "="); p. 32, section 5.5.4.4. "Multiple enumerations")

Revise the following earlier practices when updating volume holdings:

1. OBSOLETE: preceding public notes with "**"
2. OBSOLETE: entering the note in the first 866 field
3. OBSOLETE: including title of main series in the note
4. OBSOLETE: use of phrase "shelved as" in field 866, e.g. Bd.1 shelved as Bd.16
