Bound-With Processing for Monographs
Criteria
When two or more separately published works are bound together by a publisher under one cover or comparable packaging, process as bound- with. (See AACR2, LCRI 1.7B21.). These guidelines cover most common cases. Exceptions are treated on a case-by-case basis in consultation with supervisor.Bound-With
Cataloging bound-with titles allows the cataloger to create unique bibliographic records for all works published within a single container (e.g., a volume, a microfilm, or microform set).Holdings and location information (hence circulation control) are controlled by the OSCAR master record for the first title which performs the function of the comprehensive title. The first title will circulate under its own master record. Items other than the first title do not circulate under their own title.
Generally, containers which carry a collective-level title are not bound-with and are not treated in this manner. Such publications are cataloged according to standard cataloging practices.
Level of Cataloging
Bound -with titles are normally cataloging at full Enc level, i.e., Enc lvl I. However, note the following:Call Number:
1. The call number of the master record is assigned according to the subject of the first title.2. Call numbers for the second and subsequent bound-with titles are identical to the call number for the first title with the addition of a colon and sequential number t provide a unique call number on OSCAR.
Example:
- First title* PN123.A12B341985
- Second title (bound-with) PN123.A12B341985:2
- Third title (bound-with) PN123.A12B341985:3
These call numbers are delimited in 090 fields according to standard practice for OCLC input.
PLEASE NOTE THAT CALL NUMBER WITH ":1" (Colon 1) are not used.
- Marking Book
The book is marked only with the call number of the first title on the verso of the title page for the first title. Do not mark call numbers for subsequent titles.
- Subject Headings
Each title will be assigned subject headings to correspond with its own contents.
300 Describe in this field the pagination, etc., that pertains to the particular bibliographic record. This applies to each title including the first title.
501 Use this field for a bound-with note.
The note on the record for the first title refers to all titles which are bound-with the first title.
Example:
501 bb With: Out of the depths / Mary Ryan. New York : [s.n.], 1945. -- Label your luggage / Robert Nash. New York : [s.n.], 1945.
The notes on records for bound-with (i.e., second, third, etc.) refer only to the first title.
Example:
501 bb With: Iracema : the honey-lips / by J. de Alencar. London : Bickers, 1886.
590 For original input use 590 for all "With" notes when bound-with titles were bound together by anyone other than the publisher.
Example:
590 bb With: Of the sister arts / H. Jacob. New York : [s.n.], 1970.
Linking bound-withs
When you create on OCLC the bib records for the item 2, 3, 4 etc DON'T add 949 1 to create the item records for these items. Instead go b ack to OSCAR and link bib records for titles 2, 3, 4 etc to the first bib record number.Cataloging bound-with titles for containers consisting of multiple units, e.g., MSETS.
Bound-with items are not usually published in more than one volume. There are some exceptions as follows:
Bound-With MSETS
Two or more works bound together and published in two or more volumes.
1. Call Number
Give the bound-with titles in the volume the number which indicates its place ( or, position) within the entire work (i.e. the title number) plus the number assigned to the volume. Separate these two number by colon. ( i.e., RA54.H7:2v2) in the 090 field.
Example:
- 090 RA54.H7v1
- 090 RA54.H7:2v1
- 090 RA54.H7:3v1
- 090 RA54.H7:4v2
- 090 RA54.H7:5v2
It should be noted that in these cases there will never be a call number with ":1" (colon 1).
2. For titles which are contained in more than on physical volume, consult with supervisor. For examples of bound with titles see the following record (bib) numbers:
