General information
DCM C12 explains multipart items as follows:
AACR 2 defines a multipart item in the glossary as
"a monograph complete, or intended to be completed in a finite number
of separate parts." This definition does not mean that the number of volumes
has been predetermined or that this information must be available from
the item in hand. Instead, it means either that the subject matter is
limited in scope or that there are restrictions of time, activity, etc.,
that make a limitless continuation unlikely. (Do not apply the theory
that one could write on any subject forever.) A multipart item may be
numbered or unnumbered.
