Subject: Re: Spine Labeling of Bound Serial Volumes (Suzanne Costello)

I've (blessedly) forgotten the name of the journal, but we dealt with this
same sort of thing a while back, when a periodical decided it wanted to
bring it's volume numbers in line with its anniversary--eg, print vol. 50
in its 50th year of publication.  This, of course, was decided after it had
already passed the number in question.  Librarian fun ;)

We assigned letters to the affected volumes, so we had, for example:
    vol. 47 -1992
    vol. 48 A -1993
    vol. 49 A -1994
    vol. 48 B -1995
    vol. 49 B -1996
    vol. 50 -1997

Good luck!
