Two works issued together without a collective title is a somewhat regular occurrence for children's books; much less so for adult books. The most common presentation for children's books is the tête-bêche format: two stories bound together such that a reader starts from the "front" cover and follows a story to the middle of the book, at which point the reader flips the book upside down and starts the other story from the "back" cover.

This situation is chiefly governed by AACR2R 1.1G.


Main title

If there are two title pages, determine which title is first by the title indicated first on the spine; or if there is no spine title, choose the title page or cover that does not have a bar code or an ISBN with it.

Separate the titles with a semicolon if both are by the same author.[1]

Example:

ocm55154066
100 1_ Numeroff, Laura Joffe.
245 10 What aunts do best ;‡bWhat uncles do best /‡cby Laura Numeroff ; illustrated 
       by Lynn Munsinger.

Separate the titles with a period if they have different statements of responsibility.[1] Note that there are no subfield codes for the second title.[2]

Example:

ocm60391430
100 1_ Thorpe, Kiki.
245 10 My side of the story /‡cby Peter Pan ; as told to Kiki Thorpe ; illustrated by the
       Disney Storybook Artists. My side of the story / by Captain Hook ; as told to Kiki
       Thorpe ; illustrated by the Disney Storybook Artists.

Added titles

If the works have not been previously published separately, the second title should be traced in a 246 field.[3]

Example:

ocm55154066
100 1_ Numeroff, Laura Joffe.
245 10 What aunts do best ;‡bWhat uncles do best /‡cby Laura Numeroff ; illustrated
       by Lynn Munsinger.
246 30 What uncles do best.

If the works were originally published separately, use the uniform title of the work that occurs first in the item and add an analytical added entry for the second work.[4][5][6]

Example:

ocm20931206
100 1_ Wahl, Jan.
240 10 Dracula's cat
245 10 Dracula's cat ;‡band Frankenstein's dog /‡cstory by Jan Wahl ; pictures by Kay
       Chorao.
740 02 Frankenstein's dog.

Physical description

If each section has separate page numeration or if the works are bound back to back, the physical description will contain the pagination of the first work followed by a comma, then the pagination of the second work.[7]

Example:

300    [27], [27] p. :‡bill. ;‡c24 cm.

Notes and form headings

An explanatory note and form heading is needed if the second work is on inverted pages.[8] This wording allows these works to be easily retrievable either by the standard terminology[9] or by the most common variants.

Example:

ocmocm51853326, ocm48942488
500    Works bound tête-bêche, back-to-back and inverted.
655 _0 Upside-down books.

An explanatory note is needed if the second work is not inverted but rather shares an internal "cover" so that both sides share the same "up" direction.[8][10] (There is no form heading for this style of binding.)

Example:

ocm55661421, ocm53967239
500    Bound dos-à-dos; book opens to the right from both the front cover and the back cover.
