QUALIFICATION
Generally do not abbreviate ISBN qualifiers. For example do not use abbreviations such as “hbk.” or “pbk.”, even if they are abbreviated on the resource spell out in full i.e. “hardback” or “paperback”. Make an exception for a qualifier which is a designator for part of an item. Use the form as it is expressed on the item as this is most likely to be useful to the user.
However, when copy cataloguing, ISBN qualifiers already recorded by another library in abbreviated form should be retained in that form.
