Versions with Major Changes

If the cataloging agency has determined that the item in hand differs significantly from the original work, i.e., major editing has been done, the item will be described in a separate cataloging record. The item in hand will be designated a version of the original work with major changes, e.g., short version, classroom version, etc., and the distribution information for the separate version will be recorded. The relationship to the original work will be indicated in the edition/version statement and, in most instances, in a note. Distribution information relating to the original work may also be indicated in a note.
