1.5A2. Sources of information. Take information for this area from any source. Take explicitly or implicitly stated information from the bibliographic resource item itself. Enclose information in square brackets only when specifically instructed by the following chapters.

1.5A3. If equivalent manifestations of a resource are an item is available in different formats (e.g., as text and microfilm; as sound disc and sound tape reel), give the physical description of the format in hand. Optionally, make a note describing other formats in which it is available (see 1.7B16).

1.5B. Statement of extent Extent of item (including specific material designation)

1.5B1. Record the extent of the bibliographic resource item by giving the number of physical units in arabic numerals and the specific material designation as instructed in subrule .5B in the chapter dealing with the type of material to which the resource item belongs.

If the units of the resource item are identical, add identical before the specific material designation.

1.5B2. Describe a single-part printed text item as instructed in 2.5B.

1.5B3. Specify the number of components as instructed in the following chapters.

1.5B4. If the resource item being described has a playing time, give that playing time as follows.

a) If the playing time is stated on the resource item, give the playing time as stated.

b) If the playing time is not stated on the resource item but is readily ascertainable, give it.

c) Optionally, if the playing time is neither stated on the resource item nor readily ascertainable, give an approximate time.

d) Optionally, if the parts of a multipart monograph item have a stated uniform playing time or an approximate uniform playing time, give the playing time of each part followed by each. Otherwise, give the total duration.

1.5B5. In describing a serial, integrating resource, or multipart monograph item that is not yet complete, give the specific material designation alone preceded by three spaces.

Optionally, when the resource item is complete, add the number of physical units.

2.5B. Number of volumes and/or pagination

Single volumes2.5B1. Give the number of pages or leaves in a publication in accordance with the terminology suggested by the volume. That is, describe a volume with leaves printed on both sides in terms of pages; describe a volume with leaves printed on only one side in terms of leaves; and describe a volume that has more than one column to a page and is numbered in columns in terms of columns.

If a publication contains sequences of leaves and pages, or pages and numbered columns, or leaves and numbered columns, record each sequence.1 Describe a volume printed without numbering in terms of leaves or pages, but not of both. For the treatment of plates, see 2.5B9. Describe a broadside as such. Describe a single sheet (folded or not) as sheet. Describe a case or portfolio as such.1. A sequence of pages or leaves is: (1) a separately numbered group of pages, leaves, etc.;

(2) an unnumbered group of pages, etc., that stands apart from other groups in the publication; or (3) a number of pages or leaves of plates distributed throughout the publication.

2.5B2. Give the number of pages, leaves, or columns in terms of the numbered or lettered sequences in the volume. Give the last numbered page, leaf, or column in each sequence and follow it with the appropriate term or abbreviation.

Give pages, etc., that are lettered inclusively in the form A-K p., a-d leaves, etc. Give pages, etc., that are numbered in words or characters other than arabic or roman in arabic figures.

2.5B3. Disregard unnumbered sequences, unless such a sequence constitutes the whole (see 2.5B7) or a substantial part (see also 2.5B8) of the publication, or unless an unnumbered sequence includes pages, etc., that are referred to in a note. When recording the number of unnumbered pages, etc., either give the estimated number preceded by ca., without square brackets, or enclose the exact number in square brackets.

Disregard unnumbered sequences of inessential matter (advertising, blank pages, etc.).

2.5B4. If the number printed on the last page or leaf of a sequence does not represent the total number of pages or leaves in that sequence, let it stand uncorrected unless it gives a completely false impression of the extent of the item, as, for instance, when only alternate pages are numbered or when the number on the last page or leaf of the sequence is misprinted. Supply corrections in such cases in square brackets.

2.5B5. If the numbering within a sequence changes (e.g., from roman to arabic numerals), ignore the numbering of the first part of the sequence.

2.5B6. If the pages, etc., are numbered as part of a larger sequence (e.g., one volume of a multivolume publication) or if the item appears to be incomplete (see also 2.5B15), give the first and last numbers of the pages or leaves, preceded by the appropriate term or abbreviation.

1

2.5B7. If the pages or leaves of a volume are unnumbered and the number of pages or leaves is readily ascertainable, give the number in square brackets. If the number is not readily ascertainable, estimate the number of pages or leaves and give that estimated number without square brackets and preceded by ca..

2.5B8. If the volume has complicated or irregular paging, give the pagination using one of the following methods:

a) Give the total number of pages or leaves (excluding those which are blank or contain advertising or other inessential matter) followed by in various pagings or in various foliations.

b) Give the number of pages or leaves in the main sequences of the pagination and add the total number, in square brackets, of the remaining variously paged sequences.

c) Give 1 v. (various pagings), 1 case, or 1 portfolio, as appropriate.

2.5B9. For loose-leaf publications that are designed to receive additions, give the number of volumes followed by (loose-leaf).

2.5B9. Leaves or pages of plates. Give the number of leaves or pages of plates (see Glossary, appendix D) at the end of the sequence(s) of pagination, whether the plates are found together or distributed throughout the publication, or even if there is only one plate. If the numbering of the leaves or pages of plates is complex or irregular, follow the instructions in 2.5B8.

If the volume contains both leaves and pages of plates, give the number in terms of whichever is predominant.

2.5B10. Describe folded leaves as such.

2.5B11. If numbered pages or leaves are printed on a double leaf (e.g., books in the traditional oriental format), give them as pages or leaves according to their numbering. If they are unnumbered, count each double leaf as two pages.

2.5B12. If the paging is duplicated, as is sometimes the case with books having parallel texts, give both pagings and make an explanatory note (see 2.7B10).

2.5B13. If a volume has a pagination of its own and also bears the pagination of a larger work of which it is a part, give the paging of the individual volume in this area and give the continuous paging in a note (see 2.7B10).

2.5B14. If the volume has groups of pages numbered in opposite directions, as is sometimes the case with books having texts in two languages, give the pagings of the various sections in order, starting from the title page selected for cataloguing.

2.5B15. If the last part of a publication is missing and the paging of a complete copy cannot be ascertained, give the number of the last numbered page followed by + p. Make a note of the imperfection (see 2.7B20).

Publications in more than one volume2.5B16. Give the number of volumes of a printed monograph in more than one physical volume.

2.5B17. If volume is not appropriate for a multipart item, use one of the following terms.

Case(s). Use for either boxes containing bound or unbound material or containers of fascicles.

Portfolio(s). Use for containers holding loose papers, illustrative materials, etc. A portfolio usually consists of two covers joined together at the back and tied at the front, top, and/or bottom.

2.5B18. If the number of bibliographic volumes differs from the number of physical volumes, give the number of bibliographic volumes followed by in and the number of physical volumes.

2.5B19. If a set of volumes is continuously paged, give the pagination in parentheses after the number of volumes. Ignore separately paged sequences of preliminary matter in volumes other than the first.

2.5B20. Optional addition. If the volumes in a multivolume set are individually paged, give the pagination of each volume in parentheses after the number of volumes.

2.5B21. If a publication was planned to be in more than one volume, but not all have been published and it appears that publication will not be continued, describe the incomplete set as appropriate (i.e., give paging for a single volume or number of volumes for multiple volumes). Make a note (see 2.7B10) to the effect that no more volumes have been published.

2.5B22. Braille or other tactile systems. If an item consists of leaves or pages of braille or another tactile system, add an appropriate term (e.g., of braille, of Moon type, of jumbo braille, of press braille, of computer braille, of solid dot braille) to the statement of the number of volumes, leaves, or pages.

2.17A. Extent

2.17A1. In recording the pagination of single volume or multivolume (see 2.5B) early books, etc., give each sequence of leaves, pages, or columns in the terms and form presented in the item. If the volume is printed in pages but numbered as leaves, give the numbering as leaves. If required, give more precise information about pagination, blank leaves, or other aspects of collation, by either expanding the statement of extent (if this can be done succinctly) or making a note.

Describe broadsides as such and other single sheets as sheets.
