A serial is issued in parts when each number or issue constitutes more than one physical item. Each part is usually distinguished by numbers or letters and/or an individual title. The parts all have the same common title and usually have the same numeric/chronological designation. (CCM: 17.3.1)

CONSER provides three cataloging options for serials issued in parts.

  1. Create Separate records for each part.

  2. All parts are included on one record with a general 515 note, such as "Issued in parts."

  3. All parts are included on one record with the individual titles listed in a 515 note (this option is less frequently applied).

Create Separate records for each part. (CCM: 17.3.3.a). CONSER instructs to create separate records for serials issued in parts under the following situations.  

If the parts can be used independently:

245 00 $a Journal of polymer science. $n Part A, $p Polymer chemistry.

245 00 $a Journal of polymer science. $n Part B, $p Polymer physics.

245 00 $a Journal of polymer science. $n Part C, $p Polymer symposia.

If the parts have their own numbering systems:

245 00 $a Journal of polymer science. $n Part A, $p Polymer chemistry.

362 0# $a Vol. 24, no. 2 (Feb. 1986)-

245 00 $a Journal of polymer science. $n Part B, $p Polymer physics.
