Treat Bibliyoteḳa ʻIvrit as a series. Catalog each vol. separately. Perhaps the “bound with”s are “issued with” JR
Jay Rovner, PhD Manuscript Bibliographer Library of The Jewish Theological Seminary 5501 Library 3080 Broadway New York City, New York 10027 (212) 678-8045 From: owner-heb-n...@lists.acs.ohio-state.edu [mailto:owner-heb-n...@lists.acs.ohio-state.edu] On Behalf Of Jackie BenEfraim Sent: Tuesday, January 11, 2011 3:38 PM To: heb-naco@lists.acs.ohio-state.edu Subject: Bibliyoteḳa ʻIvrit Shalom, While shifting the stacks, we came across 46 volumes books with a cover title of Bibliyoteḳa ʻIvrit. I have yet to catalog them as I am not sure how to go about making the records. Each volume contains several works, often by different authors and individual title pages, but lack a title page for the contents of the entire volume. I have found OCLC entries for most of the stories within each volume so I have four questions. Do I ... 1. Add each title per the title pages within each volume and make a "bound with" record for each book; 2. Make a new record for each volume like the one for OCLC 122711010; or 3. Make one record for the whole geshicht with one very, very long contents note; or 4. Someone will tell me that there is already a record for Bibliyoteḳa ʻIvrit and I can get back to cataloging the Maslan Bible Collection. Thank you in advance for your help, Jackie Jackie Ben-Efraim Special Collections Librarian Ostrow Library American Jewish University 15600 Mulholland Drive Bel Air, CA 90077 (310) 476-9777 ext. 238
