Background Further reading:

Collection-level cataloging : bound-with books / Jain Fletcher. Santa Barbara, California : Libraries Unlimited, c2010.

Despite the name, this book provides an extensive coverage of all kinds of cataloging treatment, including the most exhaustive: detailed separate cataloging of each bound-with item (with complete contents notes of the other bound with titles with each record) to directions for bound-with collection-level cataloging in the penultimate chapter.

Review: “Anyone who has been faced with cataloging a volume containing more than one book (called a bound-with book) will appreciate this all-in-one resource that provides an overview of the history, past and current practices, and more related to dealing with this special type of material. Part of the Third Millennium Cataloging series, this volume is based on older cataloging standards, which does not detract from the usability of the theories and concepts presented. The seven chapters are a thought-provoking read about the cataloging of these materials, addressing an issue that has been only glossed over in most cataloging guides and handbooks. A valuable guide to ensure proper care and attention is paid to the treatment of bound-with books in the bibliographic record.” --Sara Marcus
