[LM_NET] RE; CAT: New Line Books

[David Lininger <tss003@TNP.MORE.NET>]

I have had two emails that, together, provided all my answers. One was 
from New Line Books, which said that they ARE the former Smithmark 
Publishing Company, and are still located in NYC. It looks like the two 
were related, and in a restructuring NLB ended up with the assets of 
their parent company, Smithmark. The second email directed me to the 
Access Pennsylvania database, which does, indeed, have at least some of 
the titles I'm cataloging.

That person asked if I had looked anywhere else than LC. I had not, 
because I was getting suspicious when only two titles out of 10 showed 
up, and those two didn't match the books I had in hand (different 
copyright dates, different ISBN, etc.). Since the books only had a 
company name, and said they were printed elsewhere, I began to wonder if 
perhaps I had some pirated materials.

Thanks to all who helped put my fears to rest.
