a. Linking entries:

Use linking entry fields 772 (Supplement to) and 770 (Has supplement) when the supplement is cataloged separately. If the supplements are too numerous to mention in the conventional way, an alternative method may be used to cite the record numbers in a single note (see CEG Linking Entry Fields- -General Information).

b. Added entries:

1) Supplement cataloged separately:

Give an added entry for the main work on the record for the supplement, as qualified below. Do not generally give an added entry for the supplement on the record for the main work (LCRI 21.28B).

(a) Do not give an added entry if the title of the main work is the common title for the supplement. Example:

(b) Give an added entry in all other cases, even when the title of the main work is part of the title. Example:

2) Supplement is included on record for main work:

If the title of the supplement is significantly different form that of the main work, give the title in the note and give an added entry. Example:

c. Notes:

A note for a supplement is recorded in field 772/580 when the supplement is cataloged separately and in field 525 when the supplement is not cataloged separately.

1) Supplement is cataloged separately:

When the linking entry field is insufficient to generate the note, give the note in field 580, linking entry complexity note. Do not use field 525 for notes that related to another separately cataloged serial.

2) Supplement is included on the record for the main work:

Note the presence of supplements not separately cataloged in field 525. Keep the note general and indicate the frequency when known. Example:
