AACR2 2002 Chapter 12, Continuing Resources

Definitions: Continuing resource: A bibliographic

resource that is issued over time with no predetermined conclusion. Continuing resources include serials and ongoing integrating resources

AACR2 2002 Chapter 12, Continuing Resources

Definitions: 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.

AACR2 2002 Chapter 12, Continuing Resources

Definitions: 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.

AACR2 2002 12.0B1 Basis of the description

Serials: Base the description of a serial on the first issue or part or, lacking this, on the earliest available issue or part.

Integrating resources: Base the description of an integrating resource, except the beginning date of publication, on the current iteration of that resource.

AACR2 200212.1B8 Change in title proper

Serials: If a major change in the title proper occurs, make a new description. If a minor change occurs in the title proper on a subsequent issue or part, in general, give the later title in a note.

Integrating resources: If any change in the title proper occurs on a subsequent iteration, change the title and statement of responsibility area to reflect the current iteration and, in general, give the earlier title in a note.

AACR2 2002 12.1F3 Editors

Serials: Do not record as statements of responsibility relating to persons who are editors

Integrating resources: Record statements relating to persons who are editors as statements of responsibility if considered to be important

12.3 Numbering areaSerials: Give this area for serials if cataloguing from the

first and/or last issue or part. Integrating resources: This area is not generally

applicable.

 

AACR2 200212.4 Publication Information

Serials: If the place of publication or name of publisher changes on a subsequent issue or part, give the later place or name in a note if considered to be important.

Integrating resources: If the place of publication or the name of the publisher changes on a subsequent iteration, change the place of publication or name of publisher to reflect the current iteration and give the earlier place or name in a note if considered to be important.
