COMPREHENSIVE DESCRIPTION
Supplementary Materials
LC practice: Create separate records for a main work and a supplementary work if the supplementary work is not issued at the same time as the main work, or if it shows important differences in titles or statements of responsibility from those appearing in the main work.
Also, catalog separately all supplements, etc., to serials except for:
•
Indexes, and
•
Supplements, etc., that have titles that are more like descriptions than true titles, or because the supplement, etc., is usable only in conjunction with the main work.
Relate separately cataloged supplements, etc., to the main work following the guidelines in Chapter 25 (Related works).

ANALYTICAL DESCRIPTION
LC practice: If the analytical description is for a resource in a series, give a series statement; if the description is the result of original cataloging at LC, do not give an authorized access point for the series (the related work referenced in this instruction). If the analytical description is for a resource other than one in a series, apply cataloger’s judgment about referring to the related work.
Analytical Descriptions for "Bound Together" Resources
LCpractice: Create separate bibliographic records and apply "With" notes (see RDA 28.1) when two or more resources issued independently have been subsequently placed together under one cover or comparable packaging. Also create separate records for rare books issued universally as one physical volume by the publisher, etc., with separate title pages, separate pagination/foliation, and separate collation (i.e., signatures) for each work (see also Descriptive Cataloging of Rare Materials (Books) (DCRM(B)) 7B18).

CHANGE IN MEDIA TYPE OF A MULTIPART MONOGRAPH
LC practice/PCC practice: If the media type varies within the multipart monograph (not a change from one type to another), do not create a new description. Add information in the bibliographic record explaining the variation.

SERIALS
LC practice/PCC practice: When there are different language expressions of a serial work and the preferred title of the work (as determined according to RDA 6.2.2) changes, create a new description for each different expression of that work even if the title proper of the manifestation of the specific language expression did not change.
) changes, create a new description for each different expression of that work even if the title proper of the manifestation of the specific language expression did not change.EXAMPLE
"Mechanics of solids" is the title proper of an English-language expression of a work in Russian. Although the English title proper did not change, a new description is necessary because the preferred title of the work in Russian changed.

RE-BASING OF AN INTEGRATING RESOURCE
LC practice/PCC practice: For an updating loose-leaf, if the edition statement changes and/or the publisher issues a new base volume or volumes, apply the following guidelines:
1.
Do not make a new description for a gradual replacement edition (i.e., the author or publisher considers the publication to be a new edition and issues a replacement title page with a new edition statement but does not issue a new base volume or volumes); update the edition statement and give a note about the change in the edition statement (see Policy Statement 2.17.4.5.3).
).2.
Generally, do not consider the following to be a new resource: a new base volume or volumes with pages having various dates in the header/footer, etc., or having other indications that the same or a different publisher has just reissued the content of an existing resource as of its latest iteration. Take into account publisher's statements found in the shipping material, filing instructions that accompany the new base volume or volumes, etc. If the resource is not yet represented in the catalog, include a "Description based on" note to clarify that the iteration being cataloged is not the first iteration of a new resource. Give a note about an update with a complete replacement of pages, if considered important to the description, e.g.: "Update for September 2015 is a complete set of replacement pages, but consists of updated content integrated into the current edition and not a new edition."
3.
Generally, consider the following to be a new resource: a new base volume or volumes having a new edition statement, or having other indications that the same or a different publisher considers the reissued content to constitute a new edition or new work. Take into account publisher's statements found in the shipping material, filing instructions that accompany the new base volume or volumes, etc. If the new resource has the same preferred title or creator and preferred title as the previous one, and it lacks an edition statement, supply one in brackets using the year of publication, distribution, etc., e.g.: "[2003 edition]" (see RDA 2.5.1.4).
).4.
In case of doubt, do not make a new description.
