Deborah,

Thanks! I had actually been about to follow up my original message with an
example. I'll send it anyway.

I was wavering between the following two approaches:

500  "Probably the first publication to be printed on American machine-made
paper"--Hunter, D. Papermaking (2nd ed.), page 351

vs.

500  "Probably the first publication to be printed on American machine-made
paper"--Hunter.
510  Hunter, D. Papermaking (2nd ed.), $c page 351

Hunter is a history of papermaking, not a bibliography or catalog. The
sentence in Hunter that contains the quoted text actually does cite the
atlas being cataloged, but only briefly; wasn't sure it qualified as a
"published description":
" ... the well-known book-printing firm of Matthew Carey and Son,
Philadelphia, used the Gilpin paper for the text, charts, and maps of the
1820 and 1821 editions of N. Lavoisne's *A Complete Genealogical,
Historical, Chronological, and Geographical Atlas*, probably the first
publication to be printed on American machine-made paper."

I guess even if Hunter doesn't go in a 510, the form of the Hunter citation
in the 500 could still follow SCF guidelines (even if it shouldn't be
proposed for inclusion in SCF because it doesn't fit the stated scope).
