Subject: Early map cataloging - maps from atlases and map states

Hello all,
I am a new map cataloging assistant at Branner Library and am hoping to draw
on your collective wisdom. We are currently cataloging a collection of early
maps (mostly 17-18th century) many of which have come from atlases.
Additionally, we are dealing with multiple states for many of them. So, I am
curious how you all are handling each of these situations.
For the first issue we are currently including a 500 note and then a 740
entry. What I am wondering is, 1. is this the recommended method or is a 773
preferred? and 2. does this method change at all if a copy of the atlas is
owned?
ie
100 1 : Doncker, Hendrik I., 1626-1699.
245 10 : Pas-caart van Zuyd-Zee, tusschen California en ilhas de Ladrones /
... Hendrick Doncker Boekverkooper en Graadboogh maker inde
Nieubrughsteegh inât Stuurmans Gereetshap.
500 : Issued in the authorâs La Atlas del mundo o el mundo aguado. [1669].
740 : La Atlas del mundo o el mundo aguado. [1669].
My second question is regarding various map states. Our thinking is to
include all the states on one record and to use a 505 content note. Here is
an example of what we are dealing with...
MAPPE-MONDE, ou CARTE GENERALE DE LA TERRE, | DIVISÃE EN DEUX HEMISPHEREs
SUIVANT LA PROJECTION LA PLUS COMMUNE OU TOUS LES POINTS PRINCIPAUX SONT
PLACEZ SUR LES OBSERVATIONS DE Mrs. DE LâACADEMIE ROYALE DES SIENCES / Par
N. de Fer, Geographe de Monseig. Le Dauphin. â Scale [ca.
1:120,000,000]. â
A paris : Chez lâAutheur dans lâIsle du Palais sur le Quay de
lâOrloge ala
Sphere Royale. Ave Privilege du Roy, 1700.
State 1 Dated 1700 in the title cartouche, and at lower right.
State 2 Dated 1702.
State 3 Dated 1705 in the title cartouche, and 1700 lower right.
State 4 Dated 1708.
State 5 Dated 1718.
State 6 Dated 1728 in the title cartouche and 1718 at lower right. âAvec
Privilege du Roy 1718.â (lower right). In title: A Paris Chez J.F. Bonard
Gendre. ¶ Issued in his: Atlas ou recüeil de carte geograhiques â¦
[Map 5]. â
A Paris, 1709-[28].
Any thoughts on these issues would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance and have a great holiday season,
Alissa Hafele
