⮚Transcribing Publication Information
The cataloger should endeavor to ascertain the place and the name of the publisher. Distributor, or manufacturer from any available source if not found in the preferred source of information. (CCM:10.1.1) Publication information not found on the resource should be recorded in brackets. The name of the publisher is core but the name of distributor/manufacturer is required (if ascertainable) in situations where the publisher is unknown. Publication information not found on the resource should be recorded in brackets.
⮚Source of Publishing Statement
The preferred source of information for the publisher, distributor, and manufacturer is the same source used to determine the title proper, followed in order by any other source within the resource, accompanying material, published descriptions, a container that is not issued with the resource, or any other available resource. (CCM:10.1.1)
Take publication, distribution, and manufacture information from the earliest available issue.
If there are several statements in different sources, generally prefer the information found on the source for the title. In general, take the name of the publisher from one source, particularly in the case of corporate hierarchies; do not piece together the name of the publisher from several sources. (CCM:10.2.2.b)
When a publisher's name is given in more than one language or script, give the name in the language or script of the title proper, or if this does not apply, in the language that appears first.
