Special Situations

⮚Common Identifers

When a reproduction has an identifier associated with the original as well as with the reproduction, record the identifier for the reproduction (RDA 2.20.1.3) in the appropriate 02X field. (CCM: 17.7.6a)

⮚Reprint of a reprint

Follow the same guidelines under CCM 17.7.4 when describing a reproduction of a reprint. Record the data relating to the reproduction of the reprint in the appropriate element (RDA 1.11) and record any data relating to the original manifestation (reprint) as an element of a related manifestation. Provide attributes for the manifestation of a reprint of the same carrier using field 775. If the manifestation of the reprint is a different carrier, use field 776. (CCM: 17.7.6b)

⮚Online manifestations of print reprints

Sometimes, an online version of a print serial is comprised of issues digitized from both the original print as well as the print reprint. This is especially true of digitized versions of older serials that are available through HathiTrust or HeinOnline, where the donating institution owns print reprints as stand-ins for original issues that are missing from their collection. Unless the online manifestation comprises entirely of the print reprint edition, do not describe the resource as a reproduction of the reprint edition. Treat it as an online manifestation of the original on a provider-neutral record. (CCM: 17.7.6c)

⮚Reprints of cumulative editions

Some reproductions are reprints of the cumulative edition of a serial rather than the original. Chinese serials in particular are often issued in cumulative editions, which may be reprinted multiple times by different publishers. As a result, it may be challenging to identify the original manifestation on which the reprint is based. (CCM: 17.7.6d)
