Re: FW: [SERIALST] New Statesman - Numbering Problem Piesbergen, Frances R. 01 Feb 2005 16:35 UTC

Since there were no issues between the Dec. 13 and Jan. 1 dates, perhaps
the publisher's intent was for Dec. 13 to be combined issue 4718/4719,
Jan. 1 to be combined 4720/4721, which would make Jan. 10 - 4722, Jan.
17 - 4723, and Jan. 24 - 4724 to get back on what the publisher thinks
is the correct(?) numbering schedule.

Lynne and others,

What Lynne lists below is also what I have and there are not any missing
issues.  For some reason they have skipped 4723 and the issue for
January 24 is 4724. I don't know why the publisher thinks the numbering
is wrong, but they do and have made this adjustment.

My issues were tracking just fine, so I was muddling along very well
until I got the list message!

I have received:

Dec 13   4718
Jan  1    4719/4720
Jan 10    4721
Jan 17    4722

Why, then, is "Jan 10th actually 4722 and January 17th ... 4723"?  What
issue am I missing that was supposed to be 4721?

Yours, confused,

I thought others would like to know the response that came from the
publisher regarding the numbering of this title.

THEIR RESPONSE:

The publisher had a problem with their numering which was to be
corrected with the Jan 24th issue. If you have the 1/17 you should not
be
missing anything. Below is some information I received from the
publisher a
couple weeks ago. Thanks-  Carissa

Unfortunately, despite my instructions the numbering of the double
issues
was done incorrectly and this hasn't been rectified for the start of
2005 -
sooooooooo........Jan 10th is actually 4722 and January 17th should be
4723.
The sequence will be corrected for next week so Jan 24th will be 4724.

best wishes,

stephen

MY INQUIRY:

The January 24, 2005 issue of New Statesman is predicted as Vol.
134, No. 4723 (New Statesman & Society Vol. 18, no. 842 is the alternate
numbering.  However, the issue itself is numbered  Vol. 134, No. 4724
(New
Statesman & Society Vol. 18, no. 843).

I don't think we missed an issue because we have January 17.  Things
like
this drive librarians crazy.
