I make audacious choices bordering on abuse of cataloging norms so that the kids can see their series in order and get their holds fairly. This a tame example.

Screenshot of a Dog Man MARC bib record being edited as though it were a numbered volume in a multivolume work, e.g., Dog Man. [15], A sprinkle in time.

Screenshot of Dog Man title records with non-standard series cataloging so that the volumes appear in numeric order in catalog search results for students who want to know the order of the series.

Screenshot of multiple title records for Dog Man. [12], The Scarlet Shredder being merged into a single bib record holding all copies in the school district catalog.
