<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Aaron, if I understand your question correctly, 775 [2015] is an example of a Case D (in my list below): a Heb. publ. date is given, hence no brackets, AND
so is a Gregorian date, though because it isn’t a publ. date, it’s in brackets. An = isn’t used because the Gregorian date is not a publication date; a “that is” isn’t needed because the Gregorian date isn’t inferred. Case C is for when NO Gregorian dates
appear whatsoever and both dates are inferred: [775, that is, 2015].<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Heidi, I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a Gregorian date appear before a Hebrew date. I think my example above is ok since both the Hebrew and Gregorian dates do
appear (albeit different types, hence my uncertainty); I’m confused by the suggestion of bracketing the Gregorian date in the Latin 264 and bracketing the Hebrew date in the vernacular 264. Looking at the
<i>PCC Guidelines for Creating Bib Records in Multiple Character Sets</i> (2016 rev.), aren’t data in linked descriptive fields supposed to parallel each other?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Since that email I also had a book with a printing date of 775 and an introduction dated 24 Tevet 775, that is, 15 Jan. 2015. The date in the 264 is bracketed,
since it’s not a publ. date, but no Gregorian date is given so I couldn’t put an = even though I knew it was 2015. I don’t recall seeing any [775, 2015], so I put [775, that is, 2015], but again, I’m not sure it’s right. (This would be a Case E, combining
cases B and D: If the date is something other than a publication date AND a more detailed Hebrew date appears elsewhere in the source, both the Hebrew form and the “translated” Gregorian date will be given in brackets [separated by what? A comma or “that is”?].)
Either way, we know it’s not 2014, so I changed the date in call no. and the Date fixed fields. (It’s ocn</span>

what we are to do if the copyright dates [and by extension in absence of copyright dates, dates of manufacture) appear in the resource in two calendars. I would suggest that we not spend too much time trying to come up with a binding best practice and simply
use cataloger's judgement in providing a bracketed date of publication. Catalogers can supply parallel dates; single dates, etc.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Apologies for my late response.<br>
<br>
Regarding point C in your message below, I only put "that is" if the Hebrew publishing date is also inferred and is itself in brackets. If the Hebrew publishing date is clearly given and unbracketed, I then put the Gregorian calendar in brackets WITHOUT "that
is." Is that incorrect? Your point C seems to suggest that it is.<br>

<br>
1. You write below "present on the t.p. verso" and "present on the publication"; remember that both are equivalent in terms of RDA. The entire body of work is considered the "preferred source of information" (formerly, "chief source of information", or "csi").
Where equivalent data appears in both vernacular and Roman forms, the "=" is used to show the two "parallel" forms.<br>
<br>
2. Unless a work _specifically_ indicates a publication dates, the dates in the 264 are bracketed. Hence, anywhere you have either a _copyright_ or a _printing_ date, it will be in brackets.<br>
<br>
Putting 1. and 2. together:<br>
<br>
A. If the resource gives a date anywhere in the publication in _both_ the Hebrew and the Gregorian forms, the 264 would give both, using the = to indicate both are present.<br>
B. If the date is something other than a publication date and appears in _both_ the Hebrew and the Gregorian forms, it will appear as [Heb. = Greg.].<br>
C. If a publication date is ONLY given in the Heb., the Heb. form will appear without brackets and "that is" will be added to give the inferred Greg. date inside brackets.<br>
D. If a publication date is ONLY given in the Heb., BUT there is another form of the date in the Greg. OR a more detailed Heb. date appears elsewhere in the source, the Heb. form will appear without brackets and the
<s>inferred</s> Greg. date will be given in brackets, without either "=" or "that is" because the data is neither equivalent nor inferred.<br>
<br>
Capiche? Others, did I miss anything?<br>

Subject: [Heb-NACO] 264 bracketed dates: = or that is?<br>
<br>
Folks:<br>
<br>
I've been seeing an awful lot of bracketed dates utilizing the equals<br>
(=) sign, to wit:<br>
<br>
where only a copyright of 774 and a copyright of 2014 are present on the t.p. verso<br>
<br>
$c [774 = 2014]<br>
<br>
As I read the HCM (2.8.6, pp. 47-48), it appears that the equals sign is only used in instances where there are two firm dates that are unbracketed. Again, as I understand it, inside brackets, the phrase "that is" is used.<br>
<br>
where only a copyright of 774 and a copyright of 2014 are present on the publication<br>
<br>
$c [774, that is, 2014]<br>
<br>
Am I wrong? Have things changed?<br>
