[MinervaCats] large print book

[Sudie Blanchard]

Hi Helen-

 

We've shelved our book in the large print area.  On the verso of the
dedication page, the author says that because most who use the book will be
people with poor sight, the book was set in 14 point Dutch Roman type.  I
think the large print designation makes sense.

Hi catalogers,

 

Our copy of "Final Exit" was given to me to check as we are on a bib that
says large print.  Everything matches as far as the fields, 020, 260, 300,
etc.  The only thing is that the print is slightly larger than a regular
print book and there is no indication on the book itself that says it's a
large print book.

 

Could some of you please check your copies to see how your book matches the
bib?  If I bring in another bib and change it to a regular print book then
there will be two records in with the same information except for large
print.

 

Thanks,

Helen
