Espresso Book Machine Reproductions

Catalog the book following normal procedures.

You will probably derive a new record from existing copy. If using AACR1 copy, recatalog it as RDA. If deriving from electronic resource copy, be sure to remove the 006 & 007 fields.

Mark the Form of Item byte “r” (Regular print reproduction) in the fixed field.

Use the publication date found on the title page in the Date1 fixed field.

Keep the Date Type byte “s” (single date) in the fixed field. (Do not use “r”.)

If a new ISBN is present, you may add it to the 020 field.

If the title on the cover of the reproduction differs from the title on the title page, add a 246 field:
246 14 |i Title on cover of reproduction: |a [title]

Use the publication date, publisher, & place of publication found on the title page in the 260 field.

Keep the size of the original book in the 300 field. (The size of the reproduction will go in the 533 note.)

Add a 533 note: 533 Photocopy. |b East Lansing, Mich. : |c Michigan State University, Espresso Book Machine, |d [date of reproduction]. |e [##] p. ; [size] cm.

Assume the current year as the date of reproduction, since this date does not appear on the piece.

If we already have a copy of the original book that we are keeping, add a work letter [a, b, c, etc.] to the call number.
