The Journal of Poverty Monographic Separates
Below is a list of separates, which in serials librarianship means a special issue simultaneously published as a special journal issue or double-issue and as a separate hardbound monograph. (This is a format which we also call a DocuSerial.)
Separates are published because specialized libraries or professionals may wish to purchase a specific thematic issue by itself in a format which can be separately cataloged and shelved, as opposed to purchasing the journal on an on-going basis. Faculty members may also more easily consider a separate for classroom adoption.
Separates are carefully classified separately with the major book jobbers so that the journal tie-in can be noted on new book order slips to avoid duplicate purchasing.
