Greetings

I'd like to cite a reference from the Bibliothèque nationale de France's online catalog. I found a record in OCLC that cites it as:

BN (WWW) ǂc ABCDE1234567

Is this correct?

What about

BN (online) ǂc ABCDE1234567 ?

I know there was some discussion about ESTC on this very matter, but I don't have the printed catalog from the BN to compare reference numbers. If these longer alpha-numeric IDs are only true for their online catalog, perhaps the bib record could be cited as:

BN ǂc ABCDE1234567

Thoughts? Better ideas?


Ps. The actual citation is BN(WWW) ǂcFRBNF31622633



Thanks everyone!

Nina
