----------------------------Original message---------------------------- I wanted to throw my 2 cents in worth and complain about a couple of atlases that I purchased for MSU and feel the publishers gipped me as well. I'm referring to THE ECONOMIST ATLAS OF THE NEW EUROPE published by Holt. The OCLC record used to order this had the following incomplete message in the 500 field reading "Originally published in Great Britain in 1992 by Century Business..." -- T.p. verso. Had some indication been given by Holt that it was the same title as EUROPE: A THEMATIC ATLAS, I could have saved myself forty bucks! (In my budget that is alot!) So I ended up with 2 copies which our cataloging department linked on our NOTIS system. If you need to borrow one, I can spare it...... Diana (the Gripe) Rivera Michigan State Univ. [log in to unmask]
