A cataloging question here; delete at your discretion.
 
I am closing several microfiche records for serial titles that were and continue to be issued in print.  The format for the reproduction moved from fiche to CD-ROM a couple years ago.  I already know I should close out the 533 and 539 fields, since they apply to the fiche. But what about the 008 and 260?  These refer back to the original print version; since it continues to be published under the same title, its record is still open.  I was unsuccessful in finding an answer in the CONSER manuals.
 
Thanks for any help.
