Greetings Matt,
Thanks for the clarification. When OCLC created MARC record #297440731 for Google why did it add nineteen 856 links for issues of previous titles? This MARC record is a description of a printed serial that began in 1968 but all nineteen 856 links are for issues published prior to 1968. There are no links to issues of the described serial. The 008/34 field indicates that this record reflects a successive entry convention not latest entry. Thanks.

Julia,
OCLC creates the MARC records for Google and syncs with both Google and
Hathi Trust. New records are added every day to WorldCat from both
repositories. Currently there are over 4.5 million e-book MARC records
in WorldCat.
