If there is a book, that been republished into two separate parts, then the new ones count as a new book?
If it's a series, it can be added to the "whole's" or a new one is needed?"
Yes those are new editions, as the content for each book will be different (half or the "original"), and anyway we add/create a new edition for each book. Don't combine with the full books.
They should be added to the existing series, no need for knew ones. Add them as the parts of the book they are, example book 1 part 1/2, book 1 part 2/2. (You can leave a librarian note as well)
Un-check the "note" as they are not primary works but parts of a primary work. Add them at the end of the series.

I added the books from this series to this. Can a superlibrarian (or I) delete the first, becouse I think it was just a duplicate series, and now that I added it to the main?
