Early on I was told 7XX$a$t have no $e or $4 between the name and title, to my surprise. It seems inconsistent to me. > In your earlier post you cited: >264 1 Helsingfors : =C7=82b [publisher not identified], =C7=82c 193= >490 1 Acta Societatis Scientiarum Fennicae. Nova series B. =C7=82v tom. We would have entered: 264 1 $aHelsingfors [Sweden] :$bSocietatis Scientiarum Fennicae?].$c1939. We would do a 710 for the society with relator $dissuing body, since we don't know if they are the publisher for certain. Lubetski would have just had [The Society] in 260$b. Sommeone needs to do a editing job on those examples. But then, the same if true of the whole RDA. The rewrite is still far short of Michael Gorman's clarity in AACR2. __ __ J.
