[Koha] Multi Volume Set

[Elaine Bradtke]

It could go both ways, and is really a local decision.
We tend to catalogue a lot of our multi-volume sets individually.
This is an historical artefact; some of our 19th century sets of
songsters, etc. are incomplete and or we have more than one edition of
some volumes.

However, for a recently published (and complete) set of encyclopedias,
I would think the simplest option would be to catalogue the set in one
biblio.  The ISBN field (020 in MARC21) is repeatable.
