26.5A. (Series) Introduction
This LCRI represents LC/NACO practice.
Although rule 26.5A addresses only see references for traced series, this LCRI contains guidelines for see and see also references on series authority records for all categories represented by such authority records (monographic series, other serials, multipart items, series-like phrases) regardless of local treatment decisions concerning analysis, classification, and tracing practices. Unless a specific category is mentioned, the word "series" in this LCRI applies to all four categories.
N.B.: Full reference structure is not given for each example.
If an added entry is needed for a series in a bibliographic record, or if the heading for a series is needed as part of a heading/reference in a name/series authority record, use the heading on the series’ own AACR2 bibliographic record or authority record.
