See first the general instructions for when to create a new record.
- Because there are many more individual exceptions and strange cases when dealing with children's print materials and their frequent reprints & reissues, use the existing record when in doubt about whether or not a new record is needed for children's material.
Major differences: Create a new record | Minor differences: Use an existing record | |
---|---|---|
Title, subtitle, or parallel title | A difference in the title, or, if both versions have a subtitle, a difference in the subtitle on the chief source of information | The presence or absence of a subtitle on the chief source of information, or a difference in the subtitle when neither subtitle is present on the chief source of information |
Statement of responsibility | A different author, illustrator, translator, or other such responsible person | A difference in the form of a person's name |

When one has the edition statement "1st ed." and the other has no edition statement or an edition statement in the above category | ||
A difference in edition of the style: "50th Anniversary ed.", if there is no indication that this represents a difference in the content. | ||
A difference in edition for foreign language material (especially Spanish), because a word that translates as "edition" can more often mean "printing" than "edition" | ||

Pagination | A difference in pagination of 10% or more | A difference in pagination of less than 10%, if there is no indication that this represents a difference in content rather than minor differences in type size, differences in where page breaks occur, or whether a final page is unnumbered |
Content | A difference in the primary content, such as a new chapter, new story, or added coverage of publications, research, discoveries, or other occurrences since the previous version | The presence or absence of a sample chapter from another book |

- ↑ Be sure to follow the guidelines for supplying an edition statement on the Large print page. Optionally, add the edition statement "[Mass-market paperback edition]" to records for mass-market paperbacks.
- ↑ When a reader's guide or the like occurs on unnumbered pages, it may not always be mentioned in the WorldCat record. For current-year publications, add a 500 note about the additional material to the local record.
- ↑ When there is a change in the series, add a 500 note explaining the situation and add 490/8XX fields for the new series.
