Just to add some other details on this topic and the relationship designator “reproduction of (manifestation)” under the broader designator of “equivalent manifestation” (a manifestation embodying the same expression of a work – which covers manifestations in different font sizes of the same expression)…
LC-PCC PS 27.1 “Related manifestation is a core element for LC and PCC for reproductions. The word “reproduction” is being used in its broadest sense to include all resources formerly identified as reproductions, republications, reprints, reissues, facsimiles, etc., that still represent equivalent content between an original resource and a reproduction of that original. Revised editions represent different expressions and are not treated as reproductions.” and LC-PCC PS 27.1.1.3 “Note: The PCC is in the process of forming a task group to address issues related to reproductions.” Thomas Brenndorfer Guelph Public Library From: Resource Description and Access / Resource Description and Access [mailto:RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA] On Behalf Of Adam Schiff Sent: November-18-13 3:36 AM To: RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA Subject: Re: [RDA-L] reprint relationships Agreed, Trina. As long as the text of the regular print and large print is identical, they are the same expression, but different manifestations. In my particular case, the original regular print from 2003 had about 500 pages, while the large print had over 700. Different places of publication, publishers, years. But they are identical in content otherwise. Hence, same expression, different manifestations. If “reprint of (manifestation)” is not the appropriate relationship designator to use (anyone want to comment on this?), then we need something else, like perhaps “large print manifestation of” or something similar.

Rereading the FRBR report (http://www.ifla.org/files/assets/cataloguing/frbr/frbr_2008.pdf) I see that regular-print and large print can most certainly be the same expression. So that brings us back around to Adam's original question. It would seem some tweaking of Appendix J is needed no matter what!

Schiff <asch...@u.washington.edu<mailto:asch...@u.washington.edu>> wrote: In RDA Appendix J "reprinted as" and "reprint of (manifestation)" are listed hierarchically under "reproduced as" and "reproduction of (manifestation)". I have a 2010 large print edition of a book originally published in 2003. The manifestation in hand says "This optimized ReadHowYouWant edition contains the complete, unabridged text of the original publisher's edition. Other aspects of the book may vary from the original edition." I was considering including a 775 field in the RDA record for the large print with the relationship designator "reprint of (manifestation)" and a description of the 2003 edition. However large print editions are not reproductions, so the placement of "reprinted as (manifestation)" hierarchically under "reproduction of (manifestation)" seems suspect to me. Reprints are clearly equivalent manifestations, but not necessarily reproductions. Shouldn't "reprinted as" and "reprint of (manifestation)" be taken out of the reproduction hierarchies in Appendix J? Hi Adam, I believe the problem here is the mighty misleading wording of the definition of "reprint of (manifestation)" in App. J--in particular, the choice of the phrase "same content". If you look at the definition of the reciprocal term, "reprinted as", you will see that reprints must be the *same expression*. And since editions are different expressions, then your large print edition is not a reprint, even if the content is the same. It is a different expression, but the same work, as the original book; the relationship of the large print edition to the regular-print original would be captured by the AAP for the work (100+245, or however it pans out for this particular resource). That's my take on it, anyway.
