Remember that this element is "Extent", so repeating the"47" would imply that there are 47 additional pages. However, I realize that the way we enter numbering, is not *truly* extent, since, for example, we only enter the page number of the last numbered page. Still, I think the other catalogers are simply interpreting the instructions to say that there are not actually 47 additional pages, and so they will not list them in Extent. But I agree that it would be useful if they added a note about the numbering.

I haven't been able to get AACR2 to work via Cataloger's Desktop for 3 days, and my customer service request to the Toolkit has been ignored, but was able to access AACR2 via the Toolkit today, after I sent my question and see that the AACR2 rule has pretty much the same wording, and the exact same example as the RDA rule, and doesn't have an LCRI. Not sure why this suddenly was so bothersome to me, as I would have like further guidance with the AACR2 rule as well. I always dread these books because of the page numbering, I must have blocked out the memory of them! I'm going to do what you suggest and repeat 47 in the 300 |a (cxciv, 47, 47, 148 pages)and will also add a 500 note stating pages 1-47 are duplicated. It's odd that others are failing to do this, as they are clearly seeing where the duplicated paging stops.

That's what you should do. The cases of one sequence missing is due to the cataloguer just looking at the last page and not flipping through, I suspect because they are too preoccupied with the complexities of RDA. __ __ J.
