Mary,

There is a separate record in OCLC for Cancer Cytopathology already:
OCLC#36458480.  Since Cancer Cytopathology has different volume numbering
than the main journal, we are using the separate bib record and created a
separate checkin record for it. We cross-referenced the order record
to the two since they are paid for together.

I am sure there are other creative ways to deal with this, but this
seemed the best option to us.  We also checked with the publisher,
Wiley, and they claim these two will continue to be issued together as
a subscription  (no doubtedly at a higher price, of course)

Mary,
  If you look at other titles published by Wiley, e.g., Biopolymers and
the International journal of cancer, this is something that they have
done before.  When we checkin our issues we go back and add a "bound
note" in the system as to the name of the section.  I'm not 100% sure
but I think that the "mother" title gets indexed.
  It's another worrisome serials detail that should get us all long
weekends. Are long weekends enough?
