Hi, Ifigenia,
Something I do In cases where the maps are the accompanying material, but have separate titles and might be of interest by themselves, is to enter a 246 for the map title, preceded by a note, thus: $i Title
of accompanying map: $a [title]

Subject: cataloguing question
Dear all, Happy New Year!
A question for the cataloguing process:
I have a book which has two separate maps in it. Each one has its own title and scale e.t.c.
Should we catalogue each map separately? And use 770 (? Or what else?) to link it with the book?
Or should we follow the simple “+ 2 maps in folder” (there are records in that form).
I believe this is a policy choice but I would like to hear your opinion and how you manage a case like this.
Thanks in advance
