Specific Problems:

• How do we make rules about creating this title from all the different elements?
  • recommend that metadata creator look up OCLC / ERIC records (look for a standard title there)?
  • simply deal with each as a separate problem as it comes up (not set any hard rules; treat each as an exception)?
    • won't work well if there are a lot of these multiple-volume documents
  • use exactly what appears in the UNT OPAC record, and add specific volume information in notes field?
    • problem: the titles for multiple volumes will appear the same in the DLS results list
