[DCRM-L] Form of citation - 510 field

Oksana,
As I mentioned in my earlier email, the purpose of the 510 is to direct the user to the catalog record of the bibliography. I should also have mentioned that you want them to find the best record for the bibliography. I was too quick off the mark and used a pre-AACR2 record from LC to form the citation. There is a more up-to-date bib record that I should have used.  So the 510 should be entered like this:

$a Haskell, J.D. Maine, $c ###

Sorry for the confusion. (And thanks for catching this, Bob!)

Oksana,
The 510 should be entered like this:

$a Committee for a New England Bibliography. Maine, $c ###

Since the purpose of the 510 is to direct a user to the catalog record of the bibliography, the series info is not included because the user will see it when they get to the record.

Does this help?
