7C16. Contents
List the contents of an item, either selectively or fully, if it is considered necessary to who the presence of material not implied by the rest of the description, to stress items of particular importance, or to provide the contents of a collection or of a multivolume monograph. Note the presence of errata leaves and errata slips (cf. 5B4 ).
Transcribe contents from the title page if they are presented there formally and have not been transcribe as part of the title and statement of responsibility area. In such cases, follow the word "Contents:" with the parenthetical phrase" (from t.p.)." If a formal statement of contents is not present on the title page, take contents from the head of the parts to which they refer, or, if this is not feasible, from any contents list, etc., that is present. For publications in two or more volumes, generally transcribe the volume or part designations as found.
If a complete listing of contents cannot be assembled by one of the above means, the cataloger may devise a contents note from any appropriate source or combination of sources. Example
