Microform Reproductions

Revision in process (September 2016)

If a microform set is a collection of reproductions, but the set as a whole is "born microform," the record for the collection as a whole should be cataloged as a new microform work under RDA. However, if the set is analyzed, if the individual analytics are reproductions of (presumably) printed resources, the analytic records are allowed to follow the LC-PCC PS for 1.11.
