Subject: adding the 780 with no piece in hand...

...and with no evidence of its existence on OCLC.

Serialsters, here's my problem:

I have a new title in hand--Connection.  Based on information from the
publisher, I have the first issue (April 1997) and I know the name of the
previous title--Communique.  As I mentioned in the subject
header above, I do not have any issues of Communique and cannot
find a record for it on OCLC.  If there was a record, I would
expect to find it with a uniform title main entry.  (If someone else finds
it, mea culpa!)

For my new record with title Connection (qualified by corporate
body), do I input:

780 00 Communique

or

780 00 Communique (American Association for Accreditation of Laboratory
Animal Care)

To complicate matters, the Association had a name change in May
'96.  This is mentioned in the Apr. '97 issue I have in hand.   For
any NACO member who can update that info--the authority record is under:

American Association for Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care.
ARN: 1909783

The new name is: Association for Assessment and Accreditation of
Laboratory Animal Care International

Thank you!
