"Bound With" and "Filmed With" Materials (Voyager)
 
Scope: This procedure addresses the creation of MFHD and ITEM records for two or more works issued independently that have been subsequently placed together under one cover or comparable packaging. For rules regarding the bibliographic description of such works, see AACR2 1.7B21 and the corresponding LCRI.

The "Bound With" instructions for print titles assume that "with" notes will becopy-specific. These instructions are aimed at both catalogers and post-cataloging staff.


"Filmed With" situations are more nebulous and depend on whether the filming (or re-filming) is universal or copy-specific, or on whether the microfilm copy has been added to a print record. Catalogers should use judgment in determining how and when to record "filmed with" information, based on AACR2, the LCRIs, the "Bound With" section of this procedure, and the situation at hand.


The "Filmed With" guidelines in this procedure cover item record creation and barcode linking only, and are aimed primarily at staff who barcode microfilm containers as part of the post-cataloging or collection management process.

Bound With (Print Titles)

1.  Identify which title is first in the physical volume. For that title:

     a.  Create an item record, if one is not already attached to the proper MFHD. Since this single item record will represent the entire physicalvolume, be sure to record the proper enumeration and chronology for thebound volume (if applicable) in the item record.

     b.  Add an 852 $z in the Mfhd record that either:

  • Notes the NEXT title in the volume (cite full author heading and enough of the title to allow for a reasonable search)
    Ex.: 852 ... $z Bound with: Bingham, John Armor, 1815-1900. Trial of the conspirators, for the assassination of President Lincoln.
  • Or, notes the position of the title in thevolume and the spine title of the volume. In the case of a partiallyanalyzed serial, use the enumeration from the piece itself, when appropriate
  • Ex.: 852 ... $z No. 1 in a vol. lettered: May anti-slavery pamphlets.
    Ex.: 852 ... $z No. 1 in a vol. with binder's title: Collected pamphlets, v.6.
    Ex.: 852 ... $z No. 16 in a vol. with binder's title: Working papers in Asia studies, no. 16-20.

2.  Identify the subsequent titles in the physical volume. For each title:

     a.  Do not create item records. Delete any that are already attached to target Mfhd records.

     b.  To the holdings record add:

  • An 852 $z note that either identifies the FIRST itemin the volume, using the pattern established in the 852 $z note createdfor the FIRST title's holdings record, or notes the position of thetitle in the volume and the spine title of the volume (as in Step 1b;
  • And, an 87X field with a $p [barcode of first title itemrecord]; normally, 876 (for a basic bibliographic unit) would be used,but 877 or 878 should be used if the material is a supplement or index.
    Ex.: 876 ## $p 31924084331184

3.  If one or more of the subsequent titles in the physical volume are not monographic, single-part materials, additionalinformation may need to be added to the 87X information. For a singleserial volume or issue, or a part of a multi-part title bound withother unrelated materials, volume information should be recorded in the87X $3 to indicate which part or parts of the title represented by thatholdings record are included in the "bound with" volume. In general,use the same format for the $3 information that has been used in theholdings for the serial or multi-part holdings string. If necessary, anote pertaining to the physical arrangement can be added to the 87Xfield as well in a $z

Ex.: 876 ## $3 v.3:no.1 (1855:Jan.) $p 31924084331675
Ex.: $3 score + 3 parts $p 31924084331889 $z Each of the 4physical pieces (score, violin, viola, violoncello) of the Mendelssohnis hard-bound with its equivalent in the Weber. All pieces stored inone box.

4.  This technique can also be used to link holdings foranalyzed portions of serials to the serial record when a separate itemrecord is not required or desired for the monographic records for theanalyzed pieces.

5.  For retrospective conversion only: If Cornell has not cataloged one or more titles that have been bound togethersubsequent to publication in a single physical volume, ignore theuncataloged titles. Create a record for a previously uncataloged titleonly when none of the titles contained in the piece have beencataloged. In the latter case, catalog one title only. Add a staff notein the MFHD for the first (or primary) title, as appropriate.

Ex.: 852 ... $x Some titles in physical volume will not be cataloged.
Ex.: 852 ... $x Other titles in physical volume will not be cataloged.



Filmed With (Microfilm Titles)


1.  Identify which title is first on the microfilm reel from the 533note in the bibliographic record(s), the 843 $n or 852 $z note in theMfhd record(s), or from a call number search. If it is not clear whichis the first title on the reel, choose one of the titles as the"primary" title. For that title:
Create an item record, if one is not already attached to the properMfhd. Since this single item record will represent the entire physicalreel, be sure to record the proper enumeration and chronology for thereel (if applicable) in the item record.

Identify the other titles on the microfilm reel. For each title:

     a.  Do not create item records. Delete (or relink) any that are already attached to target Mfhd records.
     b.  To the holdings record add:

  • An 87X field with a $p [barcode of first title item record];normally, 876 (for a basic bibliographic unit) would be used, but 877or 878 should be used if the material is a supplement or index.
  • Ex.: 876 ## $p 31924084331184

3.  If one or more of the subsequent titles on the microfilm reelare not monographic, single-part materials, additional information mayneed to be added to the 87X information. For a single serial volume orissue, or a part of a multi-part title filmed with other unrelatedmaterials, volume information should be recorded in the 87X $3 toindicate which part or parts of the title represented by that holdingsrecord are included on the "filmed with" reel. In general, use the sameformat for the $3 information that has been used in the holdings forthe serial or multi-part holdings string. If necessary, a notepertaining to the filmed arrangement can be added to the 87X field in a$z.

Ex.: 876 ## $3 v.3:no.1 (1855:Jan.) $p 31924084331675
Ex.: 876 ## $3 score + 3 parts $p 31924084331889 $z Each of the4 pieces (score, violin, viola, violoncello) of the Mendelssohn havebeen filmed with its equivalent in the Weber.
