cataloging question Beth Cox 26 Jul 2006 19:59 UTC

I have two questions for all you serials catalogers lurking out there.  I
am retrospectively cataloging a local newspaper.  During the run of the
newspaper, the frequency changed from monthly to weekly.  Should the Freq
fixed field be coded as "m" or "w"?

For the second question, I need to elaborate that the newspaper was issued
daily, except for Saturday and Sunday.  Therefore, is the Regl fixed field
coded as "r" or "n"?

Thank you, in advance, for your assistance!
