Adding sources edit

-->I would like to see this article get worked out, but it needs to site sources to me Wikipedia's verifiability requirements and may also violate the No Original Research Policy. Though I would hope that someone out there can find some good sources for this.

Definition of Monographic Series edit

I don't believe that the definition in the Semantics section is accurate. It also has no citation. AACR2 has: A group of separate items related to one another by the fact that each item bears, in addition to its own title proper, a collective title applying to the group as a whole. The items may be numbered or unnumbered. (from the glossary, p. 570) This, however, would appear to cover some items that are described in Book series. It is not the case, though, that the frequency of publication is relevant to this definition; the aspect of "stand alone" and "common title for the group" are the key aspects.

Themed volumes edit

I don't understand why Festschrifts are included here. There is a full article for Festschrift and they are generally single volumes, not series. LaMona (talk) 16:41, 27 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
