  and ongoing integrating resources

21
AACR2 2002

• Chapter 12, Continuing Resources
• Definitions
• Serial A continuing resource issued in a
  succession of discrete parts, usually bearing
  numbering, that has no predetermined conclusion.

• Definitions
• Integrating resource A bibliographic resource
  that is added to or changed by means of updates
  that do not remain discrete and are integrated
  into the whole. Integrating resources can be
  finite or continuing. Examples of integrating
  resources include updating loose-leafs and
  updating web sites.

  first issue or part or, lacking this, on the
  earliest available issue or part.

  integrating resource, except the beginning date
  of publication, on the current iteration of that
  resource.

24
AACR2 2002

• 12.1B8 Change in title proper
• Serials If a major change in the title proper
  occurs, make a new description. If a minor change
  occurs in the title proper on a subsequent issue
  or part, in general, give the later title in a
  note.
• Integrating resources If any change in the title
  proper occurs on a subsequent iteration, change
  the title and statement of responsibility area to
  reflect the current iteration and, in general,
  give the earlier title in a note.

25
AACR2 2002

  publisher changes on a subsequent issue or part,
  give the later place or name in a note if
  considered to be important.
• Integrating resources If the place of
  publication or the name of the publisher changes
  on a subsequent iteration, change the place of
  publication or name of publisher to reflect the
