National cataloging rules (''CONSER Cataloging Manual'' 17.4 and 17.5) allow '''supplements and indexes''' to be either cataloged separately or mentioned in a note on the record for the main work.
 
Follow these national standards:
* Supplements intended to be used with the main work should generally be cataloged on the entry for the main work.
* Supplements which provide different types of information or focus on a special feature may be cataloged separately.
* Single-serial indexes published by the same publisher as the main work should generally be cataloged on the entry for the main work.
* Indexes published by a different publisher than that of the main work should generally be cataloged separately.
 
Additional CCS standards:
* Supplements that are published 3 times a year or fewer generally should be cataloged on the main serial record.
* Supplements that are published 4 times a year or more generally should be cataloged on a separate record.
* If you are unsure how many times a year the supplement is published, prefer cataloging it on the main serial record until such time as you can be certain, in which case a change may be needed.
 
Given the nature of serials, there may be case-by-case exceptions to these rules.
