I wholeheartedly agree with Nancy's assessment. The use of the 773 allows for the title of the book to be brought out if the maps are considered the primary resource. However, if cataloging the book as the primary resource the 246 should be reserved for alternate, variant, or additional title types related to the book, while a 740 or 700/710 with $t should be used for the titles of the maps since they are the "analytic" in this case.

I think of "varying form of title" as another or variant title of the main work being cataloged, like a panel title versus a title on the face of a map, or a spine title versus a title-page title of a book.

Sent: Thursday, January 12, 2017 2:24 AM To: [log in to unmask] 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.
