Monographic Series
Monographic series (alternatively, monographs in series) are scholarly and scientific books released in successive volumes, each of which is structured like a separate book or scholarly monograph. Semantics In general books that are released serially (in successive parts) once a year, or less often, are called series. Publications that are released more often than once a year are known as periodicals. If the volumes can each stand on their own as a separate book, they are called monographs in series; if not, they are called book sets. Associations The connection among books belonging to such a series can be by discipline, focus, approach, type of work, or geographic location. Examples of such series include "Antwerp Working Papers in Linguistics"; "Early English Manuscripts in Facsimile" (Rosenkilde & Bagger, Copenhagen); Garland reference library; "Canterbury Tales Project" (see ''The Canterbury Tales''); Early English Text Society. The ''Library of Anglo-Catholic Theology'' ...
