your catalog displays GMD prominently. That solution doesn’t work for

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unpublished facsimile edition as a copy.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