Works contained in collections and anthologies are a significant body of information stored in libraries. For the retrieval of such works, online catalogs today rely mostly on contents notes and added entry fields. Four criteria for analytic catalogs are suggested: a search for a specific work should retrieve all units of that work; it should retrieve only that work, without false drops; the search should require only one pass; and the resulting display should clearly collocate all retrieved works. It is suggested that “In” analytics as described in AACR2 rule 13.5A promise better results than analytic entries based on contents notes and added entries.
