<p class="MsoNormal">Yes, my copy matches the digitized copies I found through VD.16, including the “Beichlus,” and I believe the final blank leaf is integral due to the presence of visible stitching in the middle of gathering S. I will update the record to
match. Thanks for the clarification.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Seth, <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">In principle, yes, if the description is based on an imperfect copy, and your copy is complete, you should update the extent and signature statement accordingly (and if the previous cataloger knew they were basing their description on an
imperfect copy, this should have been noted). The record you're using has links to a digitized copy, which I took a look at -- Does your copy have leaf S2, AND the following it, the one with text beginning "Beichlus"? And is there perhaps an integral blank
leaf after that? <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">I’m still new to rare book cataloging and have a question about when to replace records. I am looking at OCLC# 4825198,
<i>Agenda, das ist, Kyrchenordnung</i>, printed in Leipzig in 1540. The signature statement in the existing record seems to indicate that the description was based on an imperfect copy, with leaf S2 lacking, and the physical description identifies leaves numbered
to LIII. The copy on my desk has leaf S2, and the leaves are numbered through LIIII. Since my copy is more complete, is it acceptable to update and replace the OCLC record, or should the signature statement only be edited locally? Thanks for any guidance,<o:p></o:p></p>
