We cutter with the date that is on the edition,

For Chase's 2001 Calendar of Events the call no. would be
R
394.26
CHASES
2001

If the information is on the spine we do not duplicate the information.

Such as
(I made this up)

Old Tom McGivens reference guide 2001,  45th ed.  Vol. 1-5
but if the spine has only, Old Tom McGivens the spine label would read
(I made up the call no. also)
R
002.01
OLD TOM
2001
45th ed.
v.1

If the spine had  the complete information then we would put just the
call number
R
002.01
OLD TOM

Just what we do here...

 Hello: I have recently been assigned to copy-catalog and print labels
for new books coming in to be added to our collection. I am not a
cataloger; have had a one-semester community college cataloging course
that did not address my question. We are putting dates on our labels.
Do we use the edition date or the copyright date?  Ex:       Bankruptcy
code, rules and forms      KF1511 .S96 .A2 2001 or 2000? The edition is
2001, the copyright date is 2000. Thanks for any
input. cthom@ll.co.contra-costa.ca.us
