[DCRM-L] Single Sheet with Two or More Works.

Well, I don't know. You're not cataloging the entire physical sheet, in
contrast to books with the last page unnumbered--that unnumbered page is
still being cataloged. 

 

Still, "1 sheet ([1] p.)" is probably better. Normally it indicates a
blank verso, but you will have a note indicating that the verso is not
blank.

"[1] p."? For convenience of cataloging, the rule allows us to ignore
the fact that the two items were issued together on one sheet. Therefore
might we ignore the sheet and recognize one page only?

One page, I think. But the question is whether to use "1 sheet ([1] p.)"
or just "[1] p."

Item in hand is a single sheet publication with two works (one on each
side) lacking a collective title, and it is impossible to determine
which side should be read first. According to 1G7 one is instructed to
make a separate bibliographic record for each side of the sheet and
include a formal "With on verso" note in each record. Fine.

 

But what is one to enter in the extent element in the physical
description field of each record? One page or two?

 

Thanks in advance.
