Item
New Definitions
Continuing resource:
    “A bibliographic resource that is issued over time with no predetermined conclusion.  Continuing resources include serials and ongoing integrating resources.”
Revised Definition
Serial:
“A continuing resource issued in a succession of discrete parts, usually bearing numbering, that has no predetermined conclusion.  Examples of serials include journals, magazines, electronic journals, continuing directories, annual reports, newspapers, and monographic series.”
New Definition
Integrating resource:
“A bibliographic resource that is added to or changed by means of updates that do not remain discrete and are integrated into the whole.  Integrating resources can be finite or continuing.  Examples of integrating resources include updating loose-leafs and updating Web sites”

LCRI 1.0
Revised, expanded version of LCRI 12.0A (serials vs. monographs) – latest revision is in LCRI Update #3
Decisions to be made before beginning to catalog
LCRI 1.0 (continued)
What is the type of issuance?
Monograph vs. serial vs. integrating resource
Policy decisions on monograph (i.e., multipart item) vs. serial (both have successive issues or parts)
Policy decisions on electronic resources
Policy decisions on loose-leaf format
LCRI 1.0 (continued)
Publications of limited-duration activities to be cataloged according to rules in chapter 12:
Provided that resources have some characteristics of serials (successive issues, numbering, and perhaps frequency)
E.g., a daily bulletin of non-recurring meeting,
a quarterly report of a project.
an annual report of an expedition
Doesn’t include five-year plans or censuses
No recataloging of existing records
Changes to Specific Rules
Title Proper
Changes in AACR2 and U.S. practice:
All resources:  Introductory words (1.1B1)
Serials (including monographic series) and integrating resources:
Typographic error (12.1B1)
Initialism vs. full form (12.1B2)
Title proper:  1.1B1
Introductory words (1.1B1)
Don’t transcribe “… words that serve as an introduction … not intended to be part of the title.”
Give form with those words in note.
245 00 $a Today’s world
246 1# $i Title appears on item as: $a Welcome to today’s world
Title Proper: 12.1B1
Typographic error (12.1B1)
Correct an obvious error
Give the found form of the title in a note
Give access to the found form of the title (LCRI 21.30J)
Change in the rule based on an LCRI for serials
245 00 $a Ohio adventures
246 1# $i Title on no. 1: $a Ohioo adventures
Title Proper: 12.1B2
Initialism/acronym
If both initialism/acronym and full form on chief source, now prefer full form
Give initialism/acronym as other title information in the serial/integrating resource bibliographic record (AACR 12.1E1) or as a reference in the SAR
Slide 30
Title Proper: 12.1B2 (cont’d)
Implementation (LCRI): do not change existing records that have initialism as title proper
Change in the rule is the result of harmonization with ISSN
Numbering Area: 12.3G1
Change in AACR2 and U.S. practice; change in rule is from the harmonization with ISSN
Applies to serials (including monographic series)
Don’t create a new serial bibliographic record or a new series authority record (SAR) when a new numbering system begins and wording such as “new series” is lacking
Don’t condense existing bibliographic records or SARs
Numbering Area: 12.3G1 (continued)
When resource is in a monographic series:
Supply wording in series statement of monograph analytics (1.6G1)
Latest issue of series in database published in 2001; issue of same series to be cataloged published in 2002 and has numbering “volume 1”
4XX in bibliographic record:  … $v [new ser.], v. 1
      or
4XX in bibliographic record:  … $v [n.F], Bd. 1
Numbering Area: 12.3G1 (continued)
When resource is in a monographic series:
Do not create new SAR if wording comparable to “new series” is lacking (LCRI 1.6)
Add new 642 field to existing SAR
642     $a [new ser.], v. 1 $d 2002-  $5 DLC
642     $a v. 1 $d 1989-2001 $5 DLC
Relationships to Other Resources
Reciprocal linking notes (12.7B8) between:
Serials and serials
Serials and integrating resources
Serials and monographs
Integrating resources and integrating resources
Integrating resources and monographs
BUT NOT:  monographs and monographs
Integrating Resources: Description
Base description on current iteration
New definition:  “Iteration”
“An instance of an integrating resource, either as first   published or after it has been updated.”
Change existing record when data element changes
Re-do the description to match current iteration
Give earlier information in a note
As long as the resource is the same resource
Integrating Resources: Description (continued)
Existing record:
245 00 $a Scholarship opportunities for    future math teachers
500 ## $a Description based on: release 5, published 1999.
Same record updated after change in title proper:
245 00 $a Future math teachers’ scholarship
  opportunities
247 10 $a Scholarship opportunities for future       math teachers $f <release 5, published 1999>
500 ## $a Description based on: release 9, published 2001.
1.4D4
No longer shorten the name of the publisher to the form “The ______” if the name of the publisher is already given in the Title proper  and statement of responsibility area
“Old rule 1.4D4” deleted (rules renumbered)
Why delete the rule?  To allow for keyword searching/ retrieval of name of publisher
Examples in other rules with “The ____” were updated
Rule 1.4F8
Rule 1.4F8 revised: covers serials and integrating resources in addition to multipart items
Give earliest and latest dates* when first and last published issues, parts, or iterations are available
If first/last issue/part/iteration is not available, give information about dates for first/last issue/part/iteration in a note
*  these dates are the dates as determined by rules 1.4F1-1.4F7 (publication, distribution, copyright, or approximate dates)
Rule 1.4F8 (continued)
New option:  Supply earliest/latest dates even if first/last issue, part, or iteration isn’t available
1.4F8 Option:  Serials
Option decision:  Do not supply a date in 260 $c if the first/last issue or part isn’t available
Current practice
Will continue to give information in a note
(362 1 field)
1.4F8 Option:  Multipart Items and Integrating Resources
Option decision:  Supply a date even if the first/last issue or part is not available only if an explicit statement is available (LCRI 1.4F8), e.g.:
“Created on March 10, 2001”
“Began publication in 1998”
Copyright dates are not an explicit statement
1.4F8:  Multipart Items
Example of applying option for a multipart item:
Only volume 2 available for cataloging; preface states “… first volume was published in 2001”
260 ## $a ______ $b ______ $c [2001]-
1.4F8:  Multipart Items and Integrating Resources (continued)
If first part/iteration isn’t available and there isn’t an explicit statement about beginning date in the available part/iteration, give any available information about the beginning date in a 362 1 field
New practice/field for non-serial catalogers
Don’t do research beyond the resource
1.4F8:  Multipart Items (continued)
Example of using 362 field for note for a multipart item because option can’t be applied:
Only volume 3 published in 2002 is available for cataloging; no explicit statement about first volume; introduction explains that project began in early 2000
362 1 $a Began publication in 2000?
Cataloger’s judgment when to give a 362 1 note
1.7B4
Rule was revised to read:  “Make notes on titles by which a bibliographic resource is commonly known …if considered to be important.”
245 10 $a Library of Congress subject headings
246 1# $i Commonly known as: $a Red book
1.7B23
New rule:  Item described note.
“For serials, integrating resources, and multipart items, if the description is not based on the first issue, part, or iteration, identify the issue, part, or iteration used as the basis of description.”
Serials and integrating resources also are covered by rule 12.7B23
1.7B23 (cont’d)
Multipart items (LCRI 1.7B23)
Include the publication date of the part in the note (to give a sense of the time period of publication)
500 ## $a Description based on: v. 3,
published in 2001.
When the first part is received later, remove the 500 note and modify description as needed
Rules 21.2-21.3
Rule 21.2A revised to identify which changes in title proper are “major changes” and which are “minor changes”
“Major changes” require a new bibliographic record or new SAR for serial (including monographic series)
Concepts “major” and “minor” from ISBD(CR)
Agreement among JSC, ISBD(CR) and ISSN on the categories of major and minor changes
Rules 21.2-21.3 (continued)
Rules 21.2C1 and 21.3B1 expanded to cover integrating resources in addition to serials (including monographic series)
Changes in rules 21.2-21.3 and their LCRIs covered in training sessions and in handouts/exercise for monograph teams
Appendix on all “major/minor” changes to be separate ALA publication
Multipart Items: Policy Change
Number of bibliographic records or SARs when the title of multipart item changes:
Numbered multipart item:  always one record (rules 21.2B2 and 21.3A2)
Unnumbered multipart item: change in policy for LC/PCC on December 1, 2002 = only one record (LCRI 21.2B2 & LCRI 21.3A2: do not change or condense existing multiple records for same multipart item)
MARC 21 Bibliographic Changes
Changes in the MARC 21 Bibliographic Format:
Implemented at LC with the implementation of the AACR2 2002 Revision on December 1, 2002
Primarily affects catalogers of integrating resources
MARC 21: New Leader Code
Leader:  Bibliographic level new code “i” (integrating resource)
will be implemented by OCLC/RLIN no earlier than mid-2003
Interim:  code “m” (monograph) will continue to be used for integrating resources
MARC 21: “New” Fields
Variable fields, generally used in records for serials until now, also will be used in records for integrating resources:
022/222 – ISSN/Key title
247/547 – Change in title proper
310/321 – Frequency
362 1 – Beginning/ending date of publication*
550 – Earlier corporate body statement of responsibility
580 & 760-787 – Relationships with other resources
* also for multipart items
