'''Blu-ray + DVD combo packs''' may be cataloged either on one record as a set, or on separate records for each format, depending on how the items are circulated.


__TOC__
==Cataloged as a set==
==Handling combo packs==
If the item is in Blu-ray packaging and Blu-ray is mentioned first, treat Blu-ray as the primary format.
If your library acquires a Blu-ray + DVD or DVD + Blu-ray combo pack and then circulates the DVD separately from the Blu-ray (or does not circulate one or the other at all), then catalog each piece on its own record, creating them in WorldCat if necessary. Do not catalog both formats on a single set record, and do not use existing set records for these items. Include a 500 note to the effect of, "Originally issued as part of a combo pack."
If the item is in DVD packaging and DVD is mentioned first, treat DVD as the primary format.


If a matching standalone version has already been cataloged in CCS on its own, then use the note, "Some copies also issued as part of a combo pack with UPC: 9876543210.", and qualify any 028 fields that are specifically for the combo set with "|q(combo pack)".  If the version from the combo pack is cataloged first and then a matching standalone version is received, amend the note in the existing record from "Originally issued..." to "Some copies also issued..." and amend any 028 fields to add the qualifier.
;007 (Edition)
:Include for each format.

If your library acquires a Blu-ray + DVD or DVD + Blu-ray combo pack and then circulates the Blu-ray and DVD together as a set, then catalog the combo as a set on a single record, even if other CCS libraries have cataloged the individual pieces separately.  If it is not obvious which format is primary, then select whichever format is mentioned first on the packaging as the primary format; if it still is not obvious, then select Blu-ray as the primary format.


If a title is cataloged in CCS both as a Blu-ray + DVD combo and as a Blu-ray alone, add "[Blu-ray + DVD combo pack]" to the edition statement of the set record. If a title is cataloged in CCS both as a DVD + Blu-ray combo and as a DVD alone, add "[DVD + Blu-ray combo pack]" to the edition statement of the set record.

When a combo pack is split up and circulated separately, any separate "digital copy" discs should be included on the Blu-ray record for circulation purposes, unless your library does not circulate Blu-ray discs, in which case they should be included on the DVD record. (Since these discs are useless to more than the first patron, such "digital copy" discs should not be circulated separately.)
;300 (Physical description)
:Prefer "1 Blu-ray disc ... +{{subfield|e}}1 DVD" over "2 videodiscs".


This will result in many movies being represented by <u>at least</u> three <s>or four</s> records in catalog (more if there are multiple versions, such as with and without special features), but the respective catalog records should make the reasons for having multiple records very clear to both patrons and staff:
;347 (Digital file characteristics)
* Blu-ray only (whether issued that way or whether issued as a combo pack and split up)
:Include for each format, for PAC display.
* DVD only (whether issued that way or whether issued as a combo pack and split up)
* Blu-ray + DVD set (regardless of which one is primary)


This is a special exception based on the precedent for the way books, audio CDs, and book + CD kits are currently handled, due to the same content being included in one package in multiple, incompatible formats that some libraries circulate together and some libraries split up, and should not itself be considered to be a precedent for any other multi-part cataloging situation.
==Cataloged separately==
See [[When to use a new record]] for help determining whether a part of a combo pack can share a record with the same format issued separately.


Retrospective cataloging of existing records cataloged according to previous combo pack guidelines will be done by all CCS libraries as new copies affecting existing records are received.
Digital copy discs: If a separate "digital copy" disc is retained, include it on the Blu-ray record; if your library doesn’t circulate the Blu-ray, the digital copy may be included on the DVD record. Do not catalog digital copy discs separately.

==Blu-ray + DVD dual-sided discs==
If the item has Blu-ray coding on one side of the disc and DVD coding on the other side of the disc, always use "videodisc" for the SMD in the 300 field (e.g. "1 videodisc" when there is only one disc in the package), even when Blu-ray is considered the predominant format.
 
If the sides are enumerated (e.g. "Side A", "Side B"), treat whichever is Side A as the predominant format.
 
Include a note explaining the dual format. (This note text is a sample wording, not the only acceptable wording.)
