<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">After I sent that message, I thought of one objection. “3 v.” doesn’t include any inaccuracy, whereas in the example you gave, “766 p.” might give one an inaccurate impression of extent, since someone might read
it as saying there are 766 p. in one sequence. Actually, I just noticed that DCRM(b) 5B6.6 does allow you to put 766 p. “in various pagings” and then spell them out in detail in a note “if considered important.” So I wonder if maybe not enough rare book catalogers
are using that option. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Here’s a stab at it: maybe it’s because some OPAC’s may not display notes well, and DCRM wants people to be able to determine quickly whether the record represents the edition they’re looking for.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">On the other hand, if it’s a multi-volume, DCRM(b) 5B17.2 allows you to use “3 v.” in the 300 and then spell out the pagination in more detail in a note. So maybe it makes more sense to say you could keep the
300 simpler for all works, as you’re proposing. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
