1.4C. Place of publication, distribution, etc.

Give the address of a publisher, distributor, etc., following the name of the place of publication, distribution, etc., only for a monograph cataloged according to chapter 2 or chapter 5 that meets these three conditions:

1. it was issued by a U.S. publisher, distributor, etc., whose address is given in the item being cataloged;

2. it was issued in the current three years;

3. it does not bear an ISBN or ISSN.

Do not apply 1.4C7 if two or more publishers, distributors, etc., are being recorded in the publication, distribution, etc., area. Exception: If one of the entities is a U.S. distributor for a monograph published outside the U.S., give the address of the U.S. distributor if the item meets these four conditions:

1. the U.S. distributor is the only entity being recorded with the distributor’s place of publication;

2. the U.S. distributor’s address is given in the item;

3. the item was issued in the current three years;

4. the item lacks an ISBN or ISSN.

Apply 1.4C7 also to items in which the name of the publisher, distributor, etc., is unknown and the name of the U.S. manufacturer is being given in the publication, distribution, etc., area (1.4G1) if the monograph meets these three conditions:

1. the manufacturer’s address is given in the item;

2. the item was issued in the current three years;

3. the item lacks an ISBN or ISSN.

When applying 1.4C7, routinely repeat the name of the city in the address. For street addresses, abbreviate such words as "street," "avenue," "place" according to normal usage. Omit unnecessary elements from the address (e.g., the name of the building when the street address or post office box is given). Do not bracket any of the elements given in the address.
