1.4C7:CSB15
Give the address of a publisher, etc., following the name of the place of
publication, etc., only for a monograph cataloged according to chapter 2 or chapter 5
that meets these three conditions:
a) it was issued by a U.S. publisher, distributer, etc., whose address is
given in the item being cataloged;
b) it was issued in the current three years;
c) it does not bear an ISBN or ISSN.
Do not apply 1.4C7 if two or more publishers, distributors, etc., are being
recorded in the publication, etc., area. Exception: If one of the entities is a U.S.
distributor for a monograph published outside the U.S., give the address of the U.S.
distributor if the item meets these four conditions:
a) the U.S. distributor is the only entity being recorded with the
distributor's place of publication;
b) the U.S. distributor's address is given in the item;
c) the item was issued in the current three years;
d) the item lacks an ISBN or ISSN.
Apply 1.4C7 also to items in which the name of the publisher, distributor,
etc., is unknown and the name of the U.S. manufacturer is being given in the publication,
etc., area (1.4G1) if the monograph meets these three conditions:
a) the manufacturer's address is given in the item;
b) the item was issued in the current three years;
c) the item lacks an ISBN or ISSN.
When applying 1.4C7, routinely repeat the name of the city in the address.
For street addresses, abbreviate such words as "street," "avenue," "place," etc.,
according to normal usage. Omit unnecessary elements from the address (e.g., the name of
the building when the street address or post office box is given). Do not bracket any of
the elements given in the address.
1.4D1:CSB44
Government Printers
When a government printer or government printing office is named on the item
and there is no evidence that its functions are not that of a publisher or distributor,
record it as the publisher. If, however, another body also appears on the item and the
government printing office is named only in a less prominent position unaccompanied by a
statement of printing or distribution, the likelihood is greater that it functions only
as printer and that the body is the publisher.
