<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Colleagues,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have to catalog a collection of 18 British Acts ranging in date from 1700 to 1932. I have no experience cataloging this type of resource. Can anyone point me to some model records in OCLC that I might use for assistance?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for your advice and suggestions,<o:p></o:p></p>
