Policy and formulation

  • Use 510 for bibliographical descriptions of the described item, including its description in a List of Folger exhibition catalogs.
  • In general, follow the forms as given in Standard Citation Forms for Rare Materials Cataloging
    • Exceptions: for the following old single-name forms (which have been long in use at the Folger), locally add the old form in parentheses at the end of the new standard citation.[1]
      • Pollard, A.W. Short-title catalogue of books printed in England, Scotland, & Ireland and of English books printed abroad, 1475-1640 (2nd ed.) (STC)
      • English short title catalogue (ESTC)
      • Koninklijke Bibliotheek (Netherlands). Catalogus van de pamfletten-verzameling berustende in de Koninklijke bibliotheek (Knuttel)
  • If formulating a new citation form, follow the Working Principles of Standard Citation Forms (to be discussed: when to propose the new form to RBMS)
  • No general use is currently made of a URI. Do not use to link to the Hamnet record for the bibliography.
  • The field does not end with a mark of punctuation, unless the field ends with an abbreviation, initial/letter, or other data that ends with a mark of punctuation.

Notes

  1. Because the Folger card catalog always used "BM Satires" for the Catalogue of prints and drawings in the British Museum: Division I, Political and personal satires (title of volumes 1-4) and Dorothy George, Catalogue of political and personal satires preserved in the Dept. of Prints and Drawings in the British Museum (author/title of volumes 4-11), we do not add "(George)" to the new citation, which is "Catalogue of prints and drawings in the British Museum" (note that only Division I, Political and personal satires, was the only division of the prints and drawings collection published as a printed catalog).
