be possible and desirable to have links to any number of digitized copies of that edition/manifestation (what book scholar wouldn’t love that?). Somehow, the link(s) need to be clearly identified, and should not turn a print record to an electronic record.
(I have often found links in OCLC master records to come in very handy when I’m cataloging, and need to inspect a 2<sup>nd</sup> copy.) Clearly, OCLC needs to be a part of the solution.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:#1F497D">It’s interesting that the mere presence of an 856 field leads some agencies to consider the record as mixed (print/electronic). Is it really? In the context described
in this thread, the 856 is (quoting MARC): “… used to locate and access an electronic version of
<i>a non-electronic resource described in the bibliographic record</i> or a related electronic resource.” MARC definition of second indicator “1” provides reinforcement: “… In this case, the item represented by the bibliographic record is not electronic but
an electronic version is available.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:#1F497D">OCLC, alas, doesn’t recognize this subtlety. Presence of an 856 appears to result in a record treated as “Internet,” regardless of record coding. Any Connexion search
executed with the “Not Internet” limit will exclude all records containing an 856 (gah!). This conclusion is based on limited tinkering; I’d be happy to be wrong.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif"">I hope it remains understood that the proper basis for description of a particular copy is "ideal copy" description--not, I should emphasize, "idealized version", whatever we might take that to
mean.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif"">"Ideal copy"--a descriptive category, not a Platonic entity--was an unfortunate choice of term to designate all those elements of a body of books that evidence their membership in nested sets
called edition, issue (the basic unit of ideal copy description, and what we basically mean by "manifestation") and state, the last comprising isolated variations among copies that do not give rise to separate classification.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif"">In ISBD(A) ideal copy description was mandated as the basic goal of "antiquarian" cataloging, which requires conscious assessment, based on more or less research as the situation warrants or allows,
to establish that any one copy is subsumed under a given manifestation, which can also mean recording variants that correspond to states, in order not to prevent the creation of false manifestations. This goal is stated, in other words, in DCRM(B) Introduction,
III.1.1. (perhaps wisely avoiding the word "ideal").<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif"">OCLC master records are manifestation records, and those of us who tag them dcrmb need to be aware at all times of those things which do belong in the "master record", and those which do not.
This goes beyond "shared bibliographic standards", which are simply devices to support the application of the underlying principles, and may need the occasional twist or bend to help us reach the goal.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif"">This may be an over-reaction--but my teaching experience has always been that "ideal" and "idealized" (or "perfect" or "actually good, unlike this depressing example of the printer's art") are
too commonly mixed up, and have to be directly addressed again and again.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
