Using RIMMF. Tutorial #5, Import a Bib record for a Manifestation of a different Expression

In this tutorial, we are going to learn about importing another RIMMF Manifestation record when its Work record is already in the EI, but the Manifestation needs a new Expression record.

Import Another Bib record for a Manifestation

Find and View the Manifestation Record for Importing

The Work and Author headings in the R-Tree are unchecked
  indicating that matching records are already in your EI,
  based on matching AAP.
  
The Expression heading is checked,
  indicating that no matching heading for the expression
  could be found in your EI, based on its AAP. 

But, notice the asterisk(*) by the Expression label
  which indicates that, in addition, 
  no matching authority record could be found in the NAF
  for the expression, based on its AAP;
  and so RIMMF has *created* an Expression record
  from the data it can glean from the Bib record. 

Edit the Manifestation Record

Notice the 'Note on Manifestation': 
  "Book 2, The Eliot heritage"--Cover

This is a series title, 
  and under RDA can be entered as a Series Statement 
  without having to say anything about its source, 
  since the cover is "another source within the resource itself" 
  (as per RDA 2.12.2.2)
Before you forget, go to the Work record
  and add the series as a Related Work.
Notice that RIMMF says we already have a record
  in the EI, that is a keyword match for what we searched: 
  "1:RIMMF EI" in blue
This takes us to the EI, where we see one heading highlighted,
  but it is for a different title.

Leaving aside the question of whether we can or cannot
  simply add the different title as a Variant Title
  to this series work, we will call what we have a new series.
Give up on finding a NACO Authority record for the series
This is a much simpler template than before,
  and we are going to use it to make another very brief Work record
  for this series.
We know 4 things about this series:
  1. Its title 
  2. Its author
  3. Its Form of Work: Series
  3. Its series number

View the R-Tree for your set

Notice the heading for the German Expression
  shows the language of the expression "German";
  and the heading for the English Expression
  shows the language of the expression "English";

In older versions of RIMMF, the default AAP qualifier in an Expression
  was "Content Type" instead of "Language of Expression";
In this case you might need to return to the Expression records
  and tick the AAP checkboxes for Language of Expression
  in order to add a language term to the AAP.
