Introduction

Sometimes, multiple items from different works are bound together into a single volume. Unlike a collective title (such as collected plays of Shakespeare), these are distinctive works that were originally published separately, but were later bound together for a variety of possible reasons. These volumes are called "bound-withs."  Because each "work" in a bound-with is a separate bibliographic entity, each one should be cataloged individually to capture all of the essential descriptive and subject elements of the work.

This document addresses the specific type of bound-with where there is no collective title created during the binding process, but rather the distinct works have simply been brought together in this single item. A later document will deal with the collective bound-with that contains a parent-child relationship.

In typical bound-with volumes, there is one barcode and one item, but there are separate bibliographic records for each work. The item and barcode are attached to the bibliographic record for the first work in the volume, while any later works will simply have 773 fields that create the link back to that item.

By linking to the item from each secondary bibliographic record, DiscoverE will show when that item is checked out or otherwise unavailable under every title that is linked to the primary record.
