First, I’d like to clear up some confusion on my part:

I note that in an earlier full draft of CCM31, 31.17 was still “Subject headings and classification.” I take it there has been an additional renumbering since then. (Presumably, then, phrases in the revision presently reading “as previously instructed in CCM 31.17. …” should be changed to “as previously instructed in CCM 31.18. …)”

I also assume that references to “31.71a” and 31.17b” mean 31.17.2 A and 31.17.2 B? (and their 31.18.2 A and 31.18.2 B counterparts in original CCM 31 and earlier drafts of the revision?)

Now to the two points: I agree with the editors and reviewers.

1.) I would prefer not to collapse earlier print versions, unless warranted (“warranted” meaning “only if you absolutely feel that you must, having exhausted all other possible approaches”)

2.) Integrated entry for online serials should be discontinued and LC-PCC PS 2.3.7.3 removed.

Subject: [PCCTG1] Please help us make two decisions for Module 31

 

Hello Editors and reviewers,

The group working on Module 31 issued a new report this week with two final questions that need resolution. The report, on the icohere website and attached to this message addresses these two issues:

1.) Whether or not to collapse records for print versions which, if being created under current practices, would constitute minor changes

2.) Integrated entry for serials, should the practice suggested in LC-PCC PS 2.3.7.3 be continued?

Both of these issues fall under 31.17.

I think that the proposal on collapsing records is in line with the discussion we had at OpCo in 2013.

If we decide not to continue the integrated entry practice in LC-PCC PS 2.3.7.3, we will request that this policy statement be removed.

I am interested in hearing from everyone by Monday December 2, 2013 with a yes or no to incorporating the proposals submitted by the group into Module 31. Additional comments on the proposals are also welcome.

It is ok to reply on or off the list, but if you reply off the list, please reply to three of us: Beth Thornton, [log in to unmask] chair of the group, Hien, and me.

Sorry for the short turn around on this but if we can give the final version to the Catalogers desktop staff by Dec. 6th, 2013, it should make issue 1 of Desktop in 2014.

Thanks everyone for your work on the CCM! --Les
