Monographic series records are suppressed from the OPAC. The appropriate
series record can usually be identified by the following:
A series
that was formerly treated as a true serial, and is now treated monographically,
should have multiple holdings attached; one with volumes added, and
one with 852 |h Cataloged separately.
Other
complications can arise from the form of the series. An author’s
collected works cataloged as separates rather than as a bookset is
often traced and controlled differently than the way the standing
order is set up.
For
example, our order for the Gesamtausgabe of Martin Heidegger published
by Klostermann is set up under the title Works
/ Martin Heidegger. The series appearing on some volumes is
Gesamtausgabe. III. Abteilung. Searching
“works martin heidegger” or “gesamtausgabe martin heidegger”
as a Journal Title brings up the bibliographic record for our order.
Finally,
in general our policy is not to place standing orders for unnumbered
monographic series, but in practice there are a few such orders.
There are also some orders for monographs where there is not a true
series present, such as ACM package, or proceedings of conferences
and meetings, such as those at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory.

Series Bibliographic and Holdings records for Monographic Series.
