I hope you are all well during these trying times.
I have some confusion about when to use Integrated Entry as a cataloging convention for integrated resources (print and online). Do we only use this entry convention when there is a change
in the resource? Or do we always use it when cataloging an integrated resource?
Module 35 of the CCM:
"IR.7.13 008: Entry convention (008/34 or 006/17)
This code byte should be coded �2� to reflect integrated entry cataloging conventions."
OCLC Bib Formats:
"S/L: Entry Convention
2
Integrated entry. A record is cataloged under its latest (most recent) title and/or responsible person or corporate body. Create a new record only for a major change in edition, a new work or a title merger or split. Use for integrating resources and electronic
serials that do not retain their earlier titles. Refer to LCRI 12.0B1 or LC-PCC PS 2.3.7.3 for further information regarding the use of S/L code 2 for electronic serials."
I'm not well-versed enough to search the OCLC database to find examples of integrated resources that don't use the 2 in the S/L byte of the 008, but I know I've seen them.
Thanks, in advance, for your help in clearing this up for me.
