12.1B7. [Footnote]
Mark of Omission at the End of the Title:
If a date or numbering occurs at the end of the title proper, do not transcribe it as part of the title proper.
Consider the date to be part of the title proper and include a mark of omission for the following situations:
1. There is a linking word between the designation and the preceding part of the title proper.
2. Case endings of one or more words in the chronological designation link these words with antecedents within the preceding [part of the title proper.
Omission of Other Names, Numbers, Etc., That Vary:
Omit from a title proper, using a mark of omission, any name or number that can be expected to vary. Since these omissions will not be data that are part of the numeric or chronological designation of the serial, they may be explained in notes if it is considered important to do so.
Omission of Designation Wording from Titles:
When the chronological designation is expressed as a span of dates, consider all portions of the date to be part of the chronological designation and not part of the title, even if part of the date remains constant from year to year, e.g., the month.
