Introduction to Description• Description (or descriptive cataloging) is
concerned with indentification of an item and recording information about the item so that it may be identified exactly and cannot be confused with another item. (From Wynar/Taylor)

IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 6
Choice of Access Points• Chapter 21 of AACRII is concerned with
how to choose the elements of a description that will be made searchable – AKA “Access Points”
• We will look a bit at the sort of rules that are used to decide what does and doesn’t get made searchable in (conventional) paper and online catalogs (and why)
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 7
Choice of Access Points• General Rule
– 21.1A -- Personal authorship -- enter works by one or more persons under the heading for personal author.
– 21.1B2 -- Corporate Body -- may be chosen as the main entry for an item if it falls into one or more of 6 categories.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 8
21.1B2 Corporate Author Categories• a) The work deals with the body itself,
such as a financial report or operations report, staff listing, or a catalog of the body’s resources.
• b) Certain legal, governmental, or religious types of works listed in the rule: – laws; decrees of the chief executive that have
force of law; administrative regulations; constitutions; court rules; treaties, etc.; court decisions; legislative hearings; religious laws (e.g. canon law); liturgical works
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 9
21.1B2 Corporate Author Categories• c) Those that record the collective thought
of the body – reports of commissions or committees, official
position statements, etc.• d) Those that report the collective activity
of a conference (e.g.: proceedings , collected papers), an expedition (e.g.: results of exploration, investigation), or of an event falling within the definition of a corporate body -- provided that the conference, etc. is prominently named in the item
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 10
21.1B2 Corporate Author Categories• e) Those that result from the collective activity
of a performing group as a whole where the responsibility of the group goes beyond that of mere performance, execution, etc.– Includes sound recordings, films, videorecordings,
and written records of performances.• f) Cartographic materials emanating from a
corporate body other than a body that is merely responsible for their distribution and publication
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 11
21.1B3• If a work falls outside the categories, treat
it as if no corporate body was involved.
• Added entries are made for prominently named corporate bodies.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 12
21.1C Entry Under Title• If there is no personal author, personal
authorship is diffuse, and the work is not eligible under 21.1B2, when the work is a collection with multiple authorship or produced under editorial direction, or when the work is a text that a religious group accepts as sacred scripture.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 13
21.2 & 21.3• Changes in title proper• Changes in Person or Body responsible

IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 14
Today• Form of Name -- Personal names
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 15
Headings for Persons• Once you decide (via the Chapter 21
rules) that entries are to be made for a person or persons, you must then choose the form that the name will appear in.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 16
General Rule• Choose, as the basis of the heading for a
person, the name by which he or she is commonly known. This may be a person’s real name, pseudonym, title of nobility, nickname, initials, or other appellation. – Treat a roman numeral associate with a given name
(as, for example, in the case of some popes, royalty, and ecclesiastics) as part of the name.
– For authors using one or more psuedonyms or a real name and one or more psuedonyms, see 22.2b
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 17
Examples• Caedmon• William Shakespeare• D. W. Griffith (not David Wark Griffith)• Jimmy Carter (not James Earl Carter)• Ouida (not Marie Louise de la Ramee)• H.D. (not Hilda Doolittle)
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 18
22.1B• Determine the name by which a person is
commonly known from the chief sources of information of works by that person, issued in his or her language. If the person works in a non-verbal context (e.g., a painter, a sculptor) or is not primarily known as an author, determine the name by which he or she is commonly known from reference sources issued in his or her language or country of residence or activity
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 19
Titles of Nobility• Include any titles of nobility or terms of
honour or words or phrases that commonly appear in association with the name either wholly or in part.– Sir Richard Acland– Duke of Wellington– Fra Bartolommeo– Baroness Orczy
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 20
22.2 Choice among different names• If a person (other than one using a
pseudonym or pseudonyms -- see 22.2B) is known by more than one name choose the name by which the person is clearly most commonly known, if there is one. Otherwise choose one name or form of name according to the following order of precedence:
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 21
Choice of Name• A) the name that appears most frequently
in the person’s works• B) the name that appears most frequently
in reference sources• C) the latest name
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 22
22.2b: Pseudonyms• If all of the works by one person appear
under one pseudonym, choose the pseudonym. If the real name is known, make a reference from the real name to the pseudonym.– Yukio Mishima (not Kimitake Hiraoka)– George Orwell (not Eric Arthur Blair)– Nevil Shute (not Nevil Shute Norway)– Woody Allen (not Allen Stewart Konigsberg)
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 23
22.2B2 - Separate Bibliographic Identities• If a person has established two or more
bibliographic identities, as indicated by the fact that works of one type appear under one pseudonym and works of another type appear under other pseudonyms or the person’s real name, choose as the basis for the heading for each group of works, the name by which works in that group are identified. Make references to connect the names...
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 24
Examples• J.I.M. Stewart (Real name used in
“serious” novels and critical works) : Michael Innes (pseudonym used in detective novels)
• Charles L. Dodgson (Real name used in works on mathematics and logic) : Lewis Carroll (pseudonym used in literary works).
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 25
22.2b3 Contemporary authors• If a contemporary author uses more than
one pseudonym or his or her real name and one or more pseudonyms, use, as the basis for the heading for each work, the name appearing in it. Make references to connect the names– Ed McBain & Evan Hunter– Philippa Carr, Victoria Holt, Kathleen Kellow,
Jean Plaidy, Ellalice Tate
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 26
22.2C Change of Name• If a person (other than one using a
pseudonym or pseudonyms) has changed his or her name, choose the latest name or form of name unless there is reason to believe that an earlier name will persist as the name by which the person is better known– Cassius Clay vs Muhammad Ali– Benjamin Disraeli vs Earl of Beaconsfield
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 27
Choice among different forms (22.3)• Fullness
– Use the form most commonly found, make references.
• Language – Use the form from the language of most of the
works.• Greek & Latin + vernacular forms

IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 29
Entry Element• General rule: if a person’s name consists
of several parts, select as the entry element that part of the name under which the person would normally be listed in authoritative alphabetic lists in his or her language or country of residence
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 30
Order of Elements• If the entry element is the first element,
enter in direct order -- if the first element is a surname follow it by a comma.
• If the entry element is not the first element, transpose the elements of the name preceding the entry element. Follow the entry element by a comma.
• If the entry is a proper name in a title of nobility follow it by the personal name in direct order and then by the part of the title denoting rank
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 31

IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 35
Romanization• If the name of the body is in a language
written in a non-roman script, romanize the name according to the table for that language adopted by the cataloging agency.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 36
Variant forms of name• If variant forms are found in items issued by the body,
use the name as it appears in the chief sources of information
• If variant spellings, use the form resulting from official changes in orthography -- or the predominant spelling
• If variant names appear in the chief source of information, use the name that is presented formally. If no name is presented formally, or if they all are, use the predominant form of name. IF there is no predominant form, use a brief form (including an initialism or an acronym) that would differentiate the body from others with the same or similar brief names.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 37
Variant Names, Special Rules 24.3

IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 44
Uniform Titles• Uniform titles are the means for bringing
together all catalog entries for a work when various manifestations (editions, translations, etc) have appeared under various titles.
• Need to use Uniform titles varies with the catalog and even with the particular work.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 45
Uniform Titles -- When?• Base the decision to use a Uniform Title
on:– How well the work is known– How many manifestations of the work are
involved– Whether the main entry is under title.– Whether the work was originally in another
language– The extent to which the catalog is used for
research purposes.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 46
General Rule 25.2• When the manifestations (other than revised
editions) of a work appear under various titles, select one title as the uniform title as instructed in 25.3-25.4
• Use a uniform title if– 1) The work has appeared under different titles proper– OR 2) the title proper needs the addition of other
elements to organize the file– OR 3) the title used as the main or added entry
heading for a work needs to be distinguished from the main or added entry heading for another work
– OR 4) the title of the work is obscured by the wording of the title proper
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 47
Format• Inclose the uniform title in square brackets
and give it before the title proper. If the work is entered under title, give the uniform title as the heading with square brackets.
• MARC Main Entry uniform titles go into 130 -- and are in 130 in authority records. Otherwise, uniform titles go into 240 -- which are listed as 100s in authority records
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 48
Not Uniform Title• Do not use a uniform title for a
manifestation of a work in the same language that is a revision or updating of the original work. Relate editions not connected by uniform titles by giving the title of the earlier edition in a note in the entry for the later edition.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 49
Works after 1500• Use a title or form of the title in the original
language by which a work created after 1500 has become known through use in manifestations of the work or in reference sources.
• If no title in the original language is established as being the one by which the work is best known, or in case of doubt, use the title proper of the original edition.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 50
1500+ cont.• Omit from such titles (title proper of
original ed.) – Introductory phrases (e.g. Here beginneth the
tale of …)– Statements of responsibility that are part of
the title proper, if such an omission is permissible grammatically and the statement is not essential to the meaning of the title.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 51
25.3C• If there is simultaneous publication under
different titles in same language use the title of the edition published in the country of the cataloging agency.
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 52
Works Before 1500• Use the title most frequently found in
– Modern editions– early editions– manuscript copies
• Classical and Byzantine Greek– Use the well-established English title for such
a work -- or the Latin title if there is no established English title
IS 257 – Fall 2009 2009.02.09 - SLIDE 53
Before 1500 cont.• Anonymous works written neither in Greek
nor in roman script.– If the original language of an anonymous work
created before 1501 is not Greek or in a roman script, use an established title in English, if there is one.
