While cataloging new titles in the Opposing viewpoints series, I came across LCCN 2012044960. This has a 130 Genetic engineering (Merino), which makes sense due to the new way we are dealing with conflicts in RDA (LC-PCC PS for 6.27.1.9). On the other hand, other titles within the series, such as 2013002233 (Dictatorships), 2013002332 (Organ donation), and 2013001147 (Civil liberties) don't include a 130 to break conflicts (yet--all are currently CIP records, so perhaps the 130s will be added when the records are updated with the finished books). If such 130s are indeed needed, I had questions on how to best create them:
For 2013002233, 130 $aDictatorships (Lansford), following the example of 130 Genetic engineering (Merino), seems reasonable. For 2013001147, would Civil liberties (Opposing viewpoints series (Unnumbered)) or Civil liberties (Merino : Opposing viewpoints series (Unnumbered)) be appropriate? (based on a conflict with 2012022607 (Civil liberties, in the series Global viewpoints) in the use of "Civil liberties (Merino)"*) For 2013002332, would Organ donation (Egendorf : 2013) be best*, or can this just be Organ donation (Egendorf)? (in light of 2008053998, which though it has the same title and editor of compilation, should probably be considered a new work since the articles within each chapter differ significantly between the c2009 book and the c2013 version). *the PS at General #4 says "Do not predict a conflict."--is it predicting a conflict if one considers what an AACR2 record's would 130 would be if it were converted to RDA?
