comment
An Anthology is a collection of works by multiple creators gathered together in a single cohesive release. Originally, it only referred to literary works, but the term has migrated to many other fields. However, it usually doesn't mean just any collection. There will usually be a unifying theme, such as a genre, a specific theme, or a time period.
Related to Omnibus. Specifically, an omnibus is usually several novels/issues collected in a single volume, an anthology is short fiction by multiple authors, and a collection is short fiction by one author.

There are sixteen (as of 2023) volumes of Heralds of Valdemar anthologies, most of which have one novella penned by the series' creator and editor of the anthologies Mercedes Lackey and are otherwise populated by short stories by other authors, including new ones.

Black Widowers: Isaac Asimov would sell the short stories individually, and once he had twelve new files, he'd reprint them in a collection, and add commentary about the publication process. A few stories were published in the collection first, because Dr Asimov didn't have the patience to wait on other people's rate of publication.
Tales of the Black Widowers represents the first collection of the Black Widowers mysteries.
The Return of the Black Widowers represents the sixth and last collection of the Black Widowers mysteries.

Hatchetfield: Consists of 3 full length musicals (The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals, Black Friday, and Nerdy Prudes Must Die) With the release of Nightmare Time it's safe to call the Hatchetfield series an anthology series — the same stable of actors rotate through a changing cast of characters to tell a number of stories in the same setting that only loosely fit into one overarching continuity.

The Star Wars Legends Expanded Universe has the Tales anthologies, mostly reprints of stories from the Star Wars Adventure Journal. An example is Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina, composed of various stories by various authors about individual inhabitants of that cantina on Mos Eisley. One of the Jawas was planning to take revenge on stormtroopers, there was a Wolf Man and a lamprey woman in love, the bartender wanted to prove that you could be human and still mix drinks as well as something with a better sense of smell, that kind of thing. Some were more or less related. A few were mentioned later in bigger novels, most notably an Ithorian with two clones of a man he'd killed having a cameo in the Jedi Academy Trilogy and the Mistryl Shadow Warrior Shada Du'kal having one of the subplots in the Hand of Thrawn duology.

The Animatrix is a series of animations that tell a number of background stories related to The Matrix series. The animations are done in various styles, some computer animated, some pencil drawn some of them even in experimental styles. A part of the stories are made by the Wachowski siblings and worked out by their respective artists, some of the stories are original, though they do all happen in the Matrix universe.

Dragonlance: had its "Tales Of The..." series, too. Published as simply Tales Volume #, they each had a unifying theme - Magic Of Krynn was only about magic users or magical items; Kender, Gully Dwarves and Gnomes were all stories told from the perspective of or solely featuring the listed races and Love And War was about, well, love and war. Frequently the first happening during the second. Of course, Raistlin Majere featured prominently in every volume and on the cover of at least one.
