Confusion in Data entry, Help

[Langmuanjohn Tonsing]

We are using Libsys Software in our Library

I have a confusion regarding data entry

If i have two book of the same title, same author, Same ISBN, same edition but Different publication year (copyright year)

Then my question is do i have to make a different entry for each title coz it has different year of publication

or can i just add a the accession number to the existing book details?

[Pawan Kumar]

If the editions of the books is different you should make a different entry but if you have a reprint of the book you just add copys and change the accession no. only.

[Langmuanjohn Tonsing]

What about the year of publication (Copyright year) it is different, which year should be used the latest or the first one?

the two books have different copyright year.

from my idea: no need to make a new entry, just mention in note section. c2000 (Accession no.)

[Punit]

if the the pagination of the book is same, then you should add the book as copy of your existing entry and mention the copyright year in note section as babel sir told. But if the pagination is different, you should treat it as new edition and make new entry and add "Rev ed" in the eddition section. e.g. 5th rev ed. and make note for the previous entry. as "5th ed. 2009."

Thank you all for the reply

if this is reprint publication year then you can add acc. no. online

if this is fresh publication year then you can do fresh entry

dear,

if you have same field information but not same year of  publication then you can add  the accession number to the existing book details( in case of different edition, if you hv than you can make new entry). i also using the same S/W.

Yes, in case of single vol book,  you have make a different entry for each title. In  multi vol. there is no need to separate entry just enter in note area.
