I would put it with music audio books just like a radio play.
But I still find it strange that concert registrations are placed with DVD
For me, the image is subordinate to the sound
But others will find the images more important
Also applies to books with a music CD
I would place with CD and not with books
(But Arco thought differently than me) still regret that I then added more than a hundred tracks that he thundered out

What kind of job do you mean?

Whether you want to keep audiobooks with Books or whether they belong in Music.
I myself think that the term Audio Book says enough and should stick to Books.
But opinions may differ on this :-)

I would put it with music audio books just like a radio play.

Collectioneur FransS Dick52 Jilles Lyonesse
Dick is somewhat right. It is conceivable that items are classified according to their appearance. Gramophone records and CDs just at Records and CDs. In addition, I note that a number of items in Audio/Audiobook may actually belong to Spoken Word.

If we start from the current classification, the distinction is usually easy to make.

No idea if your item #9781765 something completely different.
These are recordings of a person (not the author himself) reading a book. This is clearly an audiobook.

why are there such plates for example #240425 with music.
In my opinion, this is not a literal reading from a book, but the stories are acted out by the writer himself in all kinds of voices (as in a radio play). So it is not a reading, but a performance that belongs to Spoken Word.

And an item like this, #3549735 a story with music accompanying books.
I don't think it's important to have music or not. Stories are read aloud here, but parts are acted out as in a radio play. In principle, it could be Spoken Word.
However, from the description I understand that the item is also a real booklet with a picture printed on it. That makes it understandable that users would classify such an item under Books. And I actually think that's fine.

But if this has to be added to Books, you can do this item #9781765 completely remove again from music.
Sounds like a good idea.

Additionally:

As I see it, a non-music record/CD is always Spoken word ,
except:
- If it concerns a radio play .
Contrary to what I wrote above, you should #240425 can also be regarded as radio play.

- When a book is read by someone who did not write the book. Then the focus is
on the text being spoken. Then there is an audio / audio book .

If a book is read by the author himself, it has added value. It is not only about the book itself, but also about the person who reads it. Simon Carmiggelt, for example, as he reads his own stories, cannot be surpassed by anyone. For Me Spoken Word .
The presentation by the writer himself also comes somewhat close to what is called Spoken Word in the English language area. See Wikipedia:



Spoken word refers to an oral poetic performance art that is based mainly on the poem as well as the performer's aesthetic qualities. It is a late 20th century continuation of an ancient oral artistic tradition that focuses on the aesthetics of recitation and word play , such as the performer's live intonation and voice inflection. Spoken word is a "catchall" term that includes any kind of poetry recited aloud, including poetry readings, poetry slams , jazz poetry , and hip hop music , and can include comedy routines and prose monologues . [1] Unlike written poetry, the poetic text takes its quality less from the visual aesthetics on a page, but depends more on phonaesthetics , or the aesthetics of sound.

For me, the object also plays a role - not entirely consistently - though. Caedmon's EPs and LPs, for example, are really gramophone records and therefore cannot be considered audiobooks.
They are also often fragments of books, which are read by the authors themselves.
The Cossee and Rubinstein CDs are generally audiobooks for me. They also often/always (?) have an ISBN.
[Edit] Cossee and Rubinstein also publish 'normal' books.

So you write mine this one #9781765 is an Audiobook and therefore belongs to books, I might still go with that.
Only when one has the item in hand and looks at it, in my opinion it really does not have the shape of a book and in my opinion it is not a book either.
It is a kind of box with CDs in it, so I would rather put it under music and as Genre than spoken word.
Just had a quick look and stumbled upon this one #5992837 he is now under Music, but if this is correct, he would consistently belong to the Books.
Only why make it difficult when it can also be done easily (Who have I heard this from before), Records and CDs, but also Music cassettes belong to the Music and books belong to the Books.

This applies to all items in the Audiobook/Audiobook type. I have already started my story by saying:
It is conceivable that items are classified according to their appearance. Gramophone records and CDs just at Records and CDs

I don't think I'm saying anything other than you.


Just had a quick look and stumbled upon this one #5992837 he is now under Music, but if this is correct, he would consistently belong to the Books.

#5992837 is a Caedmon LP, which, as far as I'm concerned, rightfully belongs to Spoken Word.


Only Why make it difficult when it can also be done easily (Who have I heard this from before), Records and CDs but also Music cassettes belong to the Music and books belong to the Books.

It is the easiest way to link up with the existing situation. Indeed, why make it difficult?

By the way, I'm curious what the great Spoken Word collectors, such as LeVigan and This-Raft , think about this.

As a collector it sometimes 'tickles' me that I encounter fairy tales, audio books, etc. with spoken word .

But it's not a problem for cataloging. Audiobooks may belong more easily to 'Books' in terms of genre, but it may be even easier to be able to select in which catalogs an item also appears when entering. Then the Corbijn stamp film can also be added to DVD and Film, Suske en Wiske listening plates can also be added to Comics, literature with strong graphic characteristics can also be added to books and audiobooks can be added to both books and music. This is separate from being able to link collection areas. You no longer have to enter attachments such as CD, DVD or a book twice.

And a warm greeting to everyone.

I do agree with Vertigo when it comes to radio plays and audio books. In addition, we also have to deal with "carriers". The handbook states the following:

The Big LastDodo Import Vademecum for Records and CDs V2.5 7
1.9 ITEMS THAT BELONG IN 2 SECTIONS
There are items that can actually be placed in 2 categories. For example, a biography with
supplied CD.
The sound carrier of such objects may be included in the catalog in accordance with the applicable regulations
entry lines. In the details field (see chapter 12) it must be stated with which item the
sound carrier originally formed a whole. You can use links here
provide clarification (see Chapter 16).
In the case of a book with a CD without a cover: insert the CD and insert a second image
scan of the front of the book. The book can be entered in the book section with third
image shows a scan of the accompanying CD

Two more small comments from me regarding the audiobook... ;-)

1) It's not a book because you can't read it
2) It is sound that has been recorded and put on a record / Cassette or CD so that you can only listen to it just like music.

An item is only included in the catalog once.

@ Collecteur: I know that, but it will probably be possible that entering 1x will appear in multiple categories. Especially with hybrid media forms, it can be clear and well-arranged and avoid double entry.

As it is now, it is fine for me and I would also place the audio books under 'music', as Frans rightly describes.

* the genre fields could be expanded a bit further, that would also do justice to the various registrations.

During my search I came across The Velvet Underground and Lou Reed.
Wanted to know from you what this Music is for a Genre.
Most records are listed as Pop and Rock.
But this is the wrong Genre in my opinion.
Can one refer to this Music as, Art Rock or possibly as Pop and Rock: Progressive Rock

I also regularly come across these in my record cabinet. Lou Reed I would just put under pop and rock. Velvet Underground, actually classic, but progressive at the time. Many current bands see their origin in this. Lou Reed, seen live many times, VU 1 time.
Ps with the exception of Lulu which is heavy metal

The music of the Velvet Underground and Lou Reed can be classified as Rock. So, what's wrong with Pop and Rock is not clear to me.
