Organic Gardening: title change? again? Creech, Anna 03 Jun 2003 14:00 UTC

I have in my hands the May/June 2003 and July/August 2003 issues of
Organic Gardening.  That's right, the journal that has gone from "Organic
Gardening" to "Organic Gardening and Farming" to "Organic Gardening" to
"Rodale's Organic Gardening" to "Organic Gardening" to "OG".  There is a
record in OCLC (51989049) for the most recent title change, if it is a
title change rather than just a two-issue fluke; however, it was created
by the San Francisco Public Library and has not yet had the blessing of
the Library of Congress, nor has the old record (47358131) been updated to
reflect the title change.  Do I use it?  Do I wait a while longer for
someone else to sprinkle holy water on it?

These are the things one ponders on a rainy Tuesday morning.
