[LM_NET] GEN: cataloging

[Joanne Taylor <jtaylor@ELGINISD.NET>]

Hello,

Here is a cataloging question that I run across from time to time and I
just want to find out which one is right.

 

The Concise New Partridge Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English
Tom Dalzell and Terry Victor editors

 

If I was to catalog this book, I would do it like this, REF/427/ CON 

My marc data disk has it REF/427/PAR

 

On the title page there is just the title and the 2 editor's names. I
always thought that you would take the fist 3 letters of the first word
of a book when it is just edited and there is no real author.  So which
is the correct call number?

 

Thanks,

Joanne Taylor/ Librarian
