LC TRAINING EXAMPLES (modified to reflect Yale practice) showing application of AACR2 1.4F8 and 1.7B23 when creating a new bibliographic record. In all cases the assumption is that the set is incomplete at the time of cataloging.
EXAMPLE #1
Available for cataloging: v. 1-2, both with only copyright date of 2001. Example has been modified to be consistent with LC PCC PS 1.7.1 Temporary/Uncertain Data 2b.i-ii. Also, note that under RDA there will be no copyright symbol or copyright "c" in 264 _1.
| 264 | 1 | ‡a New Haven : ‡b Yale University Press, ‡c <[2001]-> |
008 Date 1: 2001
008 Date 2: 9999
EXAMPLE #2
Available for cataloging: v. 1-3, published in 2000-2001.
| 264 | 1 | ‡a New Haven :‡b Yale University Press, ‡c 2000-<2001> |
008 Date 1: 2000
008 Date 2: 9999
EXAMPLE #3
Available for cataloging: v. 2, published in 1999; no information about v. 1.
| 264 | 1 | ‡a New Haven : ‡b Yale University Press, ‡c <1999-> | |
| 588 | ‡a Description based on v. 2, published in 1999. |
008 Date 1: 1999
008 Date 2: 9999
EXAMPLE #4
Available for cataloging: v. 2, with copyright date of 2001; option can be applied because preface has explicit statement: "... volume 1 published in 2000." Note that because the square brackets indicate that the item described had an explicit statement, a 362 1_ field is not made. Ideally, if/when volume 1 is added, the brackets would be removed unless it turns out it only has a copyright date.
| 264 | 1 | ‡a New Haven : ‡b Yale University Press, ‡c [2000]-<[2001]> | |
| 588 | ‡a Description based on v. 2, copyrighted 2001. |
008 Date 1: 2000
008 Date 2: 9999
EXAMPLE #5
Available for cataloging: v. 3, with publication date of 2002. No explicit statement in v. 3 about the initial date. Do not apply the option because there isn't an explicit statement about volume 1 in the resource. Note that 008 is taken from the earliest date in 264 or 362, whichever is earlier.
