There are several methods for cataloging reproductions. In all of these methods, the description is based on the original hard copy publication, with details of the microform given in the 533 note. All reproductions, including reproductions of reproductions, should be considered reproductions of the hard copy serial. (CCM:32.3.2)
Source of Description, Authorized Access Point, Title, Publication & Physical Description (110/130. 245, 264. 300)
Date of Production, 558 & Additional Form Notes (362, 588, 776)
Preferred Source. When cataloging originally, use as the preferred source the title page of the hard copy serial, as reproduced. If there is no title page, use the cover or other preliminaries. A common problem with the cataloging of reproduction microforms occurs when there is no title page and the cover has been removed during the filming process. The only source of title may be the editorial or contents page and the title may vary from that given on the cover. In such cases, use the title Microforms Module 32, page 26 from the best available source. Order of preference for title page substitutes is given in RDA 2.2.2.2.
