Oh, no offense taken--i just noticed that it was a Stanford University Press
book so i figured it was one of our CIP contributions. And it was probably
done under the original test policy. And, i should point out, that not
everyone at Stanford is necessarily following the same policy--our local policy
is that going beyond the LC-PCC-PS and providing extra information is
cataloger's judgement. So different catalogers may make different
judgements. Since i catalog mostly videos and video games, which almost never
have publication dates it's my judgement to use the copyright date as well (ok,
i'll acknowledge that there is a copyright date controversy regarding video
copyright dates, but that is applicable only in a minority of the cases that i
see--i don't do that many mainstream commercial videos).

I very much appreciate your detailed reply. I want to hasten to clarify that I
wasn’t trying to point out any institution as doing anything wrong or
nonstandard. Merely citing an example (of a record that looked to be done by
the rules but rules that were confusing me).
Getting the blow-by-blow as it were of the decisions how they evolved, helps
enormously for those of us who are coming to this later, with smaller
departments trying to make sense out of the variously clearly well-cataloged
but different, RDA records.

Since i see that a Stanford record is being cited in this discussion, i would
like to offer a little in the way of explanation.
