[DCRM-L] Linking multiple books with printed waste

[Washington, Brittney]

What a fun idea! I love this stuff.
Before I get going:
If you used a 700 with container of (work) I think that’d be saying that the book you’re describing was conceived of/published with ‘Compendio…’ as the endpapers. I think what you’re actually trying to say is that the item(s) in hand has a part of ‘Compendio…’ as the endpapers, right?

Subject: [DCRM-L] Linking multiple books with printed waste

Howdy folks,

I've come across a several books in one of my institution's collections that have shared provenance and printed waste endpapers that came from the same source.

My question: would it be appropriate to create a linking field that points to the work that the endpapers were taken from? Something like:

700 1_ : |i Container of (work): |a Espinosa, Isidro Felix de, |d 1679-1755. |t Compendio de la vida marabillosa del gloriosissimo padre S. Francisco de Assisi. |5 C-S

The goal would be to make it possible to search books whose printed waste comes from the same work. I want to say "an incomplete copy of this one book exists as the end papers of multiple other books."

Has anyone come across something similar--printed waste from a single text used in bindings for multiple books--and tried to create links/associations between those different books in some way?

Thanks,
Jose
