[Evergreen-catalogers] VOX Audio-Enabled Books

[Elaine Hardy]

I would not edit a record to be the new format. If you do not have access
to MARC records for the titles, I suggest using a print title to create a
new record in your database, if that fits with your cataloging practice.
Then if other bib records become available, over lay those locally created
records.

Have you checked the OLAC website to see if they address this format?
