That solution doesn’t work for photocopies, though.<br>

<br>
Dear catalogers and friends,<br>
<br>
The Folger collects facsimile editions of rare materials, published facsimiles
as well as informally-made photostats, photocopies, microfilm, &c. The
question we’re re-considering is what is the best way to catalog the
latter when we do not also have the original? <br>
<br>
When we have the original, we use one bib record to describe the original, and
put the unpublished facsimile edition as a copy. The question of whether we
should have done that aside, it’s reasonably clear what’s going on
to anyone looking at our opac. The way they’re currently cataloged
when there is no original, the user has to be able to interpret pretty subtle
clues to realize this. We are looking for a way forward that involves the least
clean-up work on our part, is readily apparent to anyone looking at the opac
description that we don’t have the original, and is consistent. <br>
<br>
We would love to hear what other libraries do or think they ought to do.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Deborah <br>
