Libraries having this item may be able to save much time in cataloging by using a record that another library has already created.  This is called copy cataloging.  Copy cataloging does not necessarily mean that a library must take every record as it was originally created, however.

 

If a library was copying this into their cataloging database, the cataloger might want to edit this record and input some additional information. For the average library user, more information might be of use. It should be possible to determine the publisher or distributor, and a summary of the contents might be helpful. Extra information should be added if the cataloger feels it would be of benefit to the patrons who will be using the library catalog.
