1.m. umguiqp of the i t a n d / a r translatian or daptatian. [Rev. ]

Generally restrict the mak.irg of language and script notes t o the s i tua t ions covered in this directive. (Note: In th is statement "language" and "language of the item" mean the language or languages of the content of the item (e.g., for books the language of the text); " t i t le data" means t i t l e proper and other t i t le information.)

If the language of the item is not clear from the transcription of the t i t l e data, make a note naming the language whether or not the language is named af te r a uniform title. Use "and" i n a l l cases t o link two languages (or the final two when more than two a re named). If more than one language is named, give the predominant language f i r s t if readily apparent; name the other languages in alphabetical order. If a predominant language is not apparent, name the languages in alphabetical order. For the form of the name of the language, follow Library of Carmgress Subfect Haadimp. (Exception: Use "Greek" for c lass ica l Greek and modern Greek. If, however, the item is a translation from classical Greek into modern Greek, use "Modern Greek" i n the note. If the item includes text in both, use "Classical Greek" and "Modern Greek" in the note.) For some "dialects" that cannot be established a s subject headings, a specific language w i l l be used in the note area only. (See LCRI 25.5D for the use of language names in uniform titles.)

Articles chiefly i n French; one art icle each in English and Italian.

Arabic and English. Text in Coptic and French; notes i n French.

In addition, record in a note the language of the item being cataloged (whether or not the language is identified in the uniform t i t l e or i n the body of the entry) i n the following cases:

1) When the bibliographic record for the item bears one of the following symbols i n conjunction with the LC control number: AM, HE, NE, SA. Exreptian: Do not make the note for an item in Arabic, Armenian, Hebrew, Indonesian, modern Turkish, or Vietnamese unless the language is being recorded for another reason.

2) When the language of the item is indigenous to Africa and is in a roman script.

1 3) When t h e language of t he item is indigenous to the Philippines. I

4) When the language of the item is not primarily written in one script. Name both the language and the script in language notes. (Note: Do not add "scriptI1 t o the name of a script unless the name is also the name of a language.)

General Application

For books, generally res t r ic t the making of the note about the nature, scope, or a r t i s t ic form of the item to the situations covered below. For books that a r e belles let t res , record i n a note the term for the l i terary form only when the t i t l e is misleading. Do not consider t i t les of l i terary works misleading simply because they a re fanciful.

special Application I Record in.a note the l i terary form of the book being cataloged if

it contains one or more l i terary works by one author and it meets one of the following conditions:

1) the bibliographic record for the item bears one of the following symbols i n conjunction with the LC control number: AM, ACN, HE, AJ, AK, NE, SA;

2) the language of the item is indigenous t o Africa and in a roman script;

3) the language of the item is indigenous to the Philippines. I Make the note whether or not the form is identified in the uniform

t i t l e or i n the body of the entry. I &&aloging Service Bulletin, hb. 35 (Winter 1987)

L i t e r a r y Ebm mte

When giving the l i terary form note, base it on the following l i terary forms: drama; fiction; poetry; l i terature (used for an item containing works i n more than one form). The note should be worded according to the cataloger's approximation of the publication; the words chosen do not necessarily have t o use one of the terms listed above (e.g., "Plays1' instead of "Drama1').

21.29D. [Rev.]

Sound R e c o r d i ~

Make added entr ies for a l l performers named on a sound recording (persons or corporate bodies) with the following exceptions:

1) Do not make an added entry for a person who functions entirely or primarily on the item being cataloged a s a member of a corporate body represented by a main or added entry. Do not consider a conductor or accompanist t o be a member of the body he or she conducts or accompanies. If a person's name appears i n conjunction with the name of a group, determine whether the corporate name includes th is personal name. If the conclusion is that the corporate name does not include the person's name, do not consider the person a member of the group; if the conclusion is that it does include the person's name, consider the person to be a member of the group.

2) If both the chorus and orchestra of an opera company, opera house, etc., participate in a performance and both a re named, along with the name of the parent body, make only a single added entry under the heading for the parent body.

source: Bolshoi Theater Orchestra and Chorus added entry under the heading for the theater

3) When a featured performer is accompanied by an unnamed group that, if it had a name, would be given an added entry a s a corporate body, do not make added entr ies for the individual members of the group. Do not, however, apply th is exception to jazz ensembles, even if one or more of the performers is given greater prominence than the others, i.e., normally make added entr ies for a l l the individual performers (except any who a re covered by exceptions 4) and 5) below) in such cases.

4) Do not make an added entry for a performer who participates i n only a small number of the works i n a collection or for a performer whose role is minor (e.g., an announcer on a radio program).

5) Do not make an added entry for a performer who receives main entry heading a s principal performer under 21.23C.

6) If there a re many performers performing the same function (e.g., singers i n an opera, actors in a drama), make added entries only for those who a re giventhegreatestprominenceinthe chief source of information. If a l l a r e given equal prominence, make added entr ies onlyforthosewhoaregivenprominenceovertheothersinotherplaces on the sound recording (e.g., the container, the program booklet) or, if that criterion does not apply, for those performing the most important functions (e.g., singing the principal roles, acting the principal parts).

If a performer for whom an added entry would be made according t o the guidelines above is also the composer of one or more works on the recording, make an added entry to represent the performing function in addition to any name/title access points (main entry or analytical added entries) made for his or her works.

Audiovisual Ma terials

In making added entr ies for audiovisual materials, follow the general rules in 21.29 and apply, in addition to those in 21.30, the following guidelines:

1) Make added entr ies for a l l openly named persons or corporate bodies who have contributed to the creation of the item, with the following exceptions:

a) Do not make added entr ies for persons (producers, directors, writers, etc.) if there is a production company, unit, etc., for which an added entry is made, unless their contributions a re significant, e.g., the animator of an animated film, the producer/ director of a student film, the director of a theatrical film, the film maker or developer of a graphic item attributed a s author on the data sheet and/or prominently named on the accompanying material ("a film by").

In the absence of a production company, unit, etc., make added entr ies for those persons who a r e listed a s producers, directors, and writers. Make additional added entr ies for other persons only if their contributions a re significant.

b) If a person, filmmaker, developer of a graphic item, etc., is the main entry heading, do not make added entr ies for other persons who have contributed to the production, unless the production is known to be the joint responsibility or collaboration of the persons or the contributions a re significant.

2) Make added entry headings for all corporate bodies named in the publication, distribution, etc., area.

3) Make added entr ies for a l l featured players, performers, and narrators with the following exceptions:

Cataloging Service Bulletin, IW. 35 (Winter 1987)

a) If, for a motion picture ok videorecording, the main entry is under the heading for a performing group (in accordance with 21.1B2e)), do not make added entr ies under the headings for persons performing a s members of that group. If a person's name, however, appears i n conjunction with and preceding or following the name of the group, do not consider him or her t o be a member of the group.

b) If there a re many players (actors, actresses, etc.), make addedentriesundertheheadingsforthosethataregivenprominencein the chief source of information. If that cannot be used a s a criterion, make added entr ies under the headings for each if there a re no more than three.

4) Similarly, make added entr ies under the headings for persons i n a production who a re interviewers or interviewees, delivering lectures, addresses, etc., or discussing their lives, ideas, work, etc., and who a re not chosen a s the main entry heading.

Data Ckmprisirg Title Added Ehtries and &thod of Tracing Them

In MARC records t i t l e added entr ies for t i t les a r e derived from the t i t l e field (tag 245) on the basis of an indicator (value 1 meaning "title traced the same"). The data constituting such a derived t i t l e added entry a re those of the Ca subfield of the t i t l e fie1d.l In non- MARC records t i t l e added entr ies a r e made on the basis of explicit instructions from the cataloger. In most cases the derived t i t l e added entry w i l l represent the t i t l e proper. ("Title." on printed products and as used by LC catalogers. For items without a collective t i t le , the derived t i t l e added entry represents an arbitrarily determined t i t l e access.) Indicate the tracing of any other t i t l e s by explicitly giving the t i t le t o be traced in a 740 field ("Title:" on printed products and a s used by LC catalogers). In both MARC and non-MARC records the extent of the t i t l e proper is, for the most part, indicated by the f i r s t mark of prescribed punctuation. When th is is not the case for MARC records, i.e., for some reason the Ca subfield of the 245 field does not equate t o the added entry desired, then the 740 field technique must be used ("Title:" on printed products).

Below a re situations in which the f i r s t mark of prescribed punctuation does not necessarily indicate the end of the t i t l e proper.2 For MARC record, a derived t i t l e added entry can be made in a l l cases.

2) Items without a collective t i t l e . If the item lacks a collective t i t l e and the t i t l e and statement of responsibility area contains more than one t i t l e (l.lG2), trace separate t i t l e added entr ies for each of the t i t les l is ted if there a re only two or three; if there a r e more, trace a t i t l e added entry only for the f i r s t t i t le. Mte: The ''title proper" for an item without a collective t i t l e is defined a s a l l the data recorded up to the f i r s t recorded parallel t i t l e , t h e f i r s t recorded other t i t l e information, or the f i r s t

Guideline for W n g Ti t le Added &tries

The following guidelines represent an attempt to standardize, t o a certain extent, practice in giving additional t i t l e added entries; they a r e no t meant t o be an exhaustive treatment of the question. Situations not addressed here should be le f t t o the cataloger's judgment. When i n doubt, it is best t o be liberal i n assigning additional t i t l e added entries.

Note: If the t i t l e being traced explicitly i n an added entry begins with an ar t icle (definite or indefinite), omit the ar t icle in a l l languages.

1 ) General. Make added entr ies more or l e s s automatically for cover t i t les , parallel t i t les , and added t i t le page t i t les when they a re significantly different from the t i t l e proper (cf. 21.2A). Be more restrictive about caption titles, half ti t les, running titles, and other t i t l e information; added entr ies for these a re generally made only if one of the following is true: a) the work was also published under the title; b) the work is cited in reference sources under the title; or c) the t i t l e is given such prominence by typography or by other means that it is reasonable t o assume that the publication may be known by it or that persons examining the item might think that it is the main t i t l e of the publication. (For added entr ies made t o provide access t o portions of the t i t l e proper, including alternative titles, see 3) below.)

2) Abbreviations. When an abbreviation occurs a s one of the f i r s t five words filed on in a t i t l e proper or other t i t l e for which a t i t l e added entry is made, make an additional t i t l e added entry substituting the corresponding spelled-out form of the abbreviation if it is thought that some catalog users might reasonably expect that the form was spelled out in the source.

t i t l e proper: Messrs. Ives of Bridgeport ... t i t l e a .e . s : I. Title. 11. Title: Messieurs Ives

of Bridgeport

t i t l e proper: Mt. St. Helens ... t i t l e a .e . s : I . Title. 11. T i t l e : Mount Saint

blues but

t i t l e proper: M'Liss and Louie ... t i t l e a . e . s : I. Title

(Spelled out form o f abbreviation unkmm)

3 ) Fartial t i t l e s (including alternative t i t l e s ) . When a portion of a t i t l e is deemed important enough to warrant a special t i t l e

Catalcging Sewice Bulletin, No. 35 (Winter 1987) 17

search, make an added entry for it whenever the general directive i n 1) above calls for it. Also, make an added entry when it could be expected, according to the context, that users would consider the phrase alone a s the t i t l e proper. This is often the case with a r t books whose t i t l e transcription begins with the art is t ' s name; many usersmightperceivethatnameas astatementofresponsibilityrather than a title.

t i t l e proper: Paul Jenkins, anatomy of a cloud t i t l e a .e .s: I. Title. 11. Title: Anatomy

of a cloud

Make added entries more or less routinely for the part of a t i t l e proper that is called "alternative title." Alternative t i t les present an additional complication i n that normally a special t i t l e search can be expected also for the f i r s t part of the t i t l e proper, before the alternative title. To insure that th is search is possible, make a special t i t l e added entry for th is f i r s t part whenever it consists of three words or l e s s that a re filed on. (The purpose is to insure that a t i t l e search is formed solely on the f i r s t part of the title.)

t i t l e proper: Lilith, ou, La mere obscure ... t i t l e a .e . s : I. Title. 11. Title: Lilith.

111. Title: Mere obscure

4) Ampersand. When an ampersand (or other symbol, e.g., +, representing the word "and") occurs a s one of the f i r s t five words filed on i n a t i t l e proper or other t i t le for which a t i t l e added entry is made, make an additional t i t le added entry substituting the word "and" in the language of the title.

t i t l e pmper: A & B roads & motorways a t las of Great Britain ...

t i t l e a . e.s: I. Title. 11. Title: A and B roads and motorways a t las of Great Britain

5 ) Items with a collective t i t l e . If an item containing more than one work or contribution has a collective t i t le , make a t i t l e added entry only for the collective title.

6) Carnies. When cataloging an item that is about or consists of selections from a comic strip, single panel cartoon, etc., make an added entry for the t i t l e of the comic strip, etc., if th is t i t le does not also begin the t i t l e proper for the item being cataloged. If necessary, justify the added entry by a note.

7 ) Corzected titles (cf. 1.W)

a) Tit les corrected by " [ i . e . ...IM and "[sic]." If the t i t l e proper has been corrected by t h e "[i.e. ...I" or "[sic]" technique, make two added entries, one for the t i t l e proper a s it is recorded (indicator 1 in 245 field or traced a s "Title.") and another for the t i t le in its corrected form.

t i t l e proper: The Paul Anthony Buck [i.e. Brick] lectures ...

18 C2ataloging Service Bulletin, Nb. 35 (Winter 1987)

Apply the optional provision. This means adding a date whenever it is known.

-tie# Century Persons

For persons living i n the twentieth century, the date should be a precise one. Specifically, add the date to headings for these persons only if It fal ls into any of the following categories:

1) The person is still living and the year of birth is known ("1900- ").

2) The person is no longer living and the years of birth and death a re known ("1900-1981").

CsPtalogiqg Servie Bulletin, Nb. 35 (Winter 1987) 23

3) The person is no longer living and only the year of birth is known ("b. 1900").

4) The person is no longer living and only the date of death is known (I'd. 1981").

Mte: If a date i n one of these categories is available only in a non-Gregorian year, add the Gregorian year t o the heading only if the Gregorian year is certain.

Pre-lhmtieth Century Persans

For pre-twentieth century persons, l e s s precise dates may be-used. Consult the examples under 22.18 for guidance. Note one detail about the use of "flourished" dates; "Flouri~hed'~ dates acceptable for addition to headings for pre-twentieth century persons normally express a span of years of activity. A single year "fl." may be used only i n exceptional cases, a s when a reference source itself designates the date i n th is way or there is one publication or other event i n the person's l i fe known to be the single or a t least primary basis for a single year.

Existing H a n g s

Do not add the date t o an existing heading represented by a name authority record that has already been coded "AACR 2" or "AACR 2 compatible." However, if such a heading must be revised later, add the date.

Also, do not add the date t o a heading being coded for AACR 2 when the heading is represented by an access point on an existing bibliographic record in the catalog (i.e., the f i le against which the cataloging and searching is done) and is otherwise in accord with current policy. However, if the person is no longer living and the existing heading contains a date, change the date if it is obsolete i n ei ther form or fact. For example, if the existing heading has an open birth date such a s "1861- ,I1 either add the death date (if available) or change the open birth date t o "b. 1861," or, if the existing heading has an approximate date and the exact date is now available, use the exact date i n the AACR 2 heading.

Abbrwlatians B. C . and A. D.

Use the abbreviation B.C. for dates i n the pre-Christian era. Place the abbreviation a t the end of a date or span of dates i n that era.

Nefertiti, Queen of Egypt, 14th cent. B.C. Spartacus, d. 71 B.C. Pericles, 499-429 B.C. ~jZtta$atru, King of Magadha, ca. 494-ca. 467

B.C.

Use the abbreviation A.D. only when the dates span both eras.

Augustus, Emperor of Rome, 63 B.C.-14 A.D. Wid, 43 B.C.-17 or 18 A.D. Seneca, Lucius Annaeus, ca. 4 B.C.-65 A.D.

If a date is questionable, place the question mark immediately following the date.

Orthqmphlc Refonn

For items published In countries where orthographic reform has taken place (e.g., Indonesia/Malaysia, the Netherlands, Soviet Union), record the data appearing in the area preceding the physical description area and i n the ser ies area exactly as found in the source of information with regard to orthography.

For monographs, on the bibliographic record for any edition of a work whose t i t l e proper contains a word in the old orthography, provide a uniform t i t l e reflecting the new orthography, although no edition with the reformed orthography has been received.

For serials, apply 21.2A and 21.2C.

Serials/Incl Wing Series

1) General. Create a uniform t i t l e made up of the t i t l e proper plus a parenthetical qualifier for any ser ia l entered under t i t l e if the t i t l e proper is identical t o the t i t l e proper of another ser ia l i n the catalog. Also, create such a uniform t i t l e if the t i t l e proper is identical t o the t i t l e proper of another ser ia l found i n a related work added e n t r y o r i n a linking entry note (fields 760-787) on a bibliographic record in the catalog. (Disregard the choice of entry of the ser ia l (under t i t l e or under name heading) when considering whether the t i t les a r e identical.) The "catalog" referred t o here is the f i le against which the searching and cataloging is being done. Serial catalogers a r e permitted to take into account any ser ia l of the same t i t l e of which they know, whether or not it is in the catalog (e.g., it mightbe foundina referenceworkbeingsearchedbyaserialcataloger for some other reason). Take into account only the main t i t l e of another serial, not variants traced a s cross references or a s added entries. In general, apply the following:

a) Do not predict a conflict.

b) Resolve the conflict by adding a uniform t i t le t o the

Cataloging Serv.. ce Bulletin, No. 35 (Winter 1987) 25

bibliographic record for the ser ia l being cataloged; do not add one also to the record for the serial cataloged earlier.

The uniform t i t l e created is used not only a s the main entry heading on the bibliographic record for the ser ia l itself but also whenever the ser ia l is referred to in other access points (added or subject entries) and in linking notes.

2) Choice of qualifying tern. The terms most commonly used to qualify the t i t le proper a re the following:

a) Place of publication b) Corporate body c) Place and date or Corporate body and date d) Date e) Edition statement, other t i t l e information, etc.

Depending on the situation, use either one term or a combination of terms. The order of the terms listed above is not intended a s prescriptive; identify the particular situation and use the appropriate term or terms. For example, different editions of the same work, which b e a r d i f ferent ia t ing edit ion statements, w i l l o rd inar i ly be distinguished by the use of the last mentioned category of terms above, a s the f i r s t choice from the point of view of appropriateness. There is a special problem with the choice place vs. body, however, and when one is facing th is choice, follow the hierarchy indicated both by the order and the wording of the f i r s t two of the provisions below.

3 ) Place of publication. Generally, use place of publication a s the qualifying term.

Arrow (Montrhl, Quebec) Arrow (Castlegar, B.C.)

Transactions of the Illuminating Engineering Society (London, England)

Transactions of the Illuminating Engineering Society (New York, N.Y.)

Light (Brooklyn, New York, N.Y.) Light (Toronto, Ont.)

If the work is published in more than one place or if the place of publication has changed, choose as the qualifying term the place that would be named f i r s t i n the publication, distribution, etc., area for the f i r s t issue published or the earl iest issue for which a place is known or the earl iest issue in hand-in that order of preference. (Use caution when taking information from an existing bibliographic record for the ser ia l needing a qualifier if the record was originally created before 1981; it may not necessarily show the earl iest place since pre- AACR 2 cataloging codes specified giving the la tes t place.)

4 ) Corporate body. Exceptionally, in the following cases use a s the qualifier the heading for the body with which the work originated or by which it was issued or published:

a) The t i t l e proper consists solely of an indication of type of publication and/or periodicity (exclusive of articles, prepositions, and con junctions).

Bulletin ( B a l d Pengolohan Gallan (Indonesia)) Bulletin (CaUfornia. Dept. of W a t e r Resources)

Occasional paper (Austral ia . Bureau of Agricultural Economics)

Occasional paper (University of the W e s t Indies (Cave Hill, Barbados). Inst i tute of Social and Economic Research)

Cataloging Service Bulletin, Nb. 35 (Winter 1987)

If more than one corporate body is associated with the work, choose a s the qualifying term the name of the body responsible for the serial, rather than the one only publishing it. If multiple bodies are performing the same function i n relation to the work, choose the one named first.

b) The addition of place a s a qualifying term is inadequate to resolve the conflict, because another work with the same t i t l e was published i n the same place.

Contact (Toronto Nutrition Committee) Contact ( R e a l Estate Institute of Canada)

(Both mrks publish& i n Toranto)

c) The t i t l e includes the ini t ials or other abbreviation of the issuing body's name.

A . proceedings (American Institute of Jownalists) ALJ proceedings (Association of Iron Joiners)

5 ) O t h e r qualiffers. Make the choice from the following possibilities, according to what is most appropriate for the particular sltuation:

a) Use a combination of either place and date or corporate body and date, whichever would be appropriate according to the preceding statements for place and body alone.

Bullrstin (Canadian Association of M e d i c a l Record Librarians : 1944)

(Fublisheal betmen 1923 and 1980 under ti t l e : Science and technology bulletin)

b) Use the beginning date of publication alone (or if unavailable, the earl iest date known)-as when place or body is already present in the title.

San Rancisco journal (1944) San Rancisco journal (1980)

c) Use any element or combination of elements extracted from the description of the work (e.g., edition statement or other t i t l e information) that w i l l serve to distinguish it from other works.

Blue book contractors register (Southern California edition)

6) Fonn of qualify* term. The form of the qualifier is shown by the examples above. Note that normal practice for qualifiers added t o corporate headings apply here also, with a single exception: When a body (as opposed to a geographic name) is used a s a qualifier, copy its

heading from the name authority record exactly, with no deletions, rearrangements, changes in punctuation, etc.

Special report (Northern Illinois University. Center for Southeast Asian Studies)

Occasional publication (Popular Archaeology (Firm))

a) Unnumbenxi/numbered t i t l e s frm the same M y . If one body issues both an unnumbered ser ies and a numbered ser ies or ser ia l with the same t i t le , add the qualifier "(Unnumbered)" t o the t i t l e for the unnumbered ser ies i n a l l cases of such a conflict. (For example, if the new t i t l e is numbered and the existing t i t l e is unnumbered, change the existing unnumbered ser ies to add "(Unnumbered)" t o the title.) Conversely, do not add a qualifier t o the t i t l e of the numbered ser ies or ser ia l to resolve the conflict with the unnumbered ser ies issued by the body.

b) t%mon/sectian t i t l e s . If the t i t l e proper of a ser ia l consists of a common t i t l e and the t i t l e of a section or part (see 12.1B3), create a uniform t i t l e t o delete the in i t ia l ar t icle from the t i t l e of the section or part. Apply th is even when the section t i t l e is preceded by a numeric or alphabetic designation.

Otherwise, create a uniform t i t l e for the work only if there is another ser ia l with exactly the same common t i t l e and t i t l e of a section or part, i.e., do not create a uniform t i t l e when there is another ser ia l with a t i t l e that is the same a s the common t i t l e but with a different t i t l e of a section or part. (Disregard the fact that one or more of the section t i t les of a particular common t i t l e may bear a uniform t i t l e but other section t i t l e s of the same t i t l e do not or that a particular common t i t l e when appearing alone has a uniform t i t l e but the same common t i t l e appearing with its section t i t les does not.)

Generally, place the qualifier a t the end, i.e., following the t i t l e of the section o r part.

etc., do not use a uniform t i t l e t o distinguish one of these secondary manifestations from the original. If the original itself has a uniform t i t le , use the same uniform t i t l e for the other manifestation.

The preceding represents the Library of Congress policy. To others who wish t o make the differentiation not provided here, LC recommends that they not use the technique of a uniform t i t le including parenthetical qualifier. Instead, they should use for the secondary manifestation a special uniform t i t l e that consists of the t i t l e (or uniform t i t le) of the original followed by a period and a subdivision designating the secondary manifestation appropriately.

Relate the two records by means of a linking entry note, citing each i n uniform t i t l e form. (Also, make connecting references between the two t i t l e s in the case of monographic series.)

If something other than a corporate body has been used' as a qualifying term and there is a change in its form or i n fact, do not create a new entry. (A note may be added to the record indicating that a change has occurred; i f the work is a series, make a reference from the t i t l e followed by the changed qualifier.)

If a t i t l e established before September 1983 is qualified by body but under current policy would be qualified by a different qualifier, change the qualifier whenever the existing corporate body qualifier becomesinappropriate(aswhenthenameofthebodychangesorwhenthe body is no longer responsible for the publication). This means creating one record for the publication (and changing or deleting existing records a s appropriate).

Do not otherwise change uniform t i t le headings t o bring them in l ine with these instructions.

If a monograph is entered under a t i t l e proper that is the same a s the t i t l e proper main entry of another work, do not assign a uniform t i t l e t o either work simply t o distinguish them, even if there a re multiple editions of either work.

However, if another manifestation of one of these works requires a uniform t i t l e (e.g., a translation, excerpts) or if one of these works is used in a subject or added entry, assign a uniform t i t l e t o the particular work according t o the provisions for adding a qualifier t o a ser ia l ti t le. (If a multipart monograph has been issued in multiple editions and is analyzable, t r ea t each edition a s a different work for purposes of assigning a uniform title; generally, use the edition statement a s the qualifying term.)

DIRECT VS. INDIRECT WCAL !XlBDMSIClN

The Subject Cataloging Division has under consideration a proposal to discontinue indirect geographic subdivision of headings in favor of direct subdivision. If this proposal were adopted, place names would be used as geographic subdivisions in exactly the form in which they are established for use as headings.

Indirect subdivision was designed in the era of the card catalog a s a method of collocating in a manual catalog works about a specific

place, usually a country, with works about smaller localities within the place. In the era of online catalogs, with their greater retrieval capabilities, the same goal can be achieved by performing keyword searches of geographic qualifiers, or by retrieving records with specific geographic area codes.

Conversion t o d i r ec t subdivision would be a significant streamlining and simplification of cataloging operations that would resul t i n both increased productivity and greater consistency in cataloging records. Furthermore, use of geographic subdivisions that match authority records would facilitate machine validation of subject headings. Since th is would be a major change in subject cataloging policy, however, the Library wishes to solicit the opinion of the American library community before undertaking it. Please address comments on t h i s proposal t o Mary K.D. Pietris, Chief, Subject Cataloging Division, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. 20540.

CATALOG RECORDS FOR ORIGINAL AND HISTORICAL GRAPHIC MATERIALS

TheLibraryofCongressPrintsandPhotographsDivision,Research Services, has custordy of approximately twelve million graphic items: or ig ina l photographs, negatives, fine prints, historical prints, posters, and artistic, documentary, and architectural drawings. They represent a l l periods and subjects. The division's staff prepares the material for access and use through physical processing and both descriptive and subject cataloging.

Until February 1986 the cataloging was entirely in a manual mode. Catalog records for these materials a r e now being created online through the Library's online visual materials file. These records w i l l be distributed through the MARC Distribution Service beginning i n early 1987. These records w i l l a lso be published i n the hbtional Uizian a t a l c g . Audiovisual Mter ia ls . Distribution of these records is intendednotsomuchforcopycatalogingpurposesbutratherasameans of sharing information about the Library's holdings; often the items a re unique or their grouping in a collection is unlike that of any other institution. It is also hoped that the sharing of these catalog records w i l l promote consistency in communicating about original and historical graphic materials.

Holdings in the Prints and Photographs Divison a r e cataloged a t one of three levels: 1) materials such a s fine prints and master photographs, whose value or uniqueness warrant individual treatment, a r e cataloged a t the item level; 2) items from the same source or having some other common denominator (e.g., the same creator, the same format, or the same subject) a re cataloged a s a group when each item's importance l i e s mostly in its relationship to the other items; and 3) items a re processed and described a s "subunits" of the larger group when it is appropriate t o divide large groups into smaller, cohesive units. Records created thus fa r online in the visual materials format a r e for groups or subunits (value "c" or "d," respectively, i n leader byte 07). In some cases, finding-aids available i n the division's reading room provide more specific access t o the items i n groups; the existence of finding-aids is indicated in the 555 field.

The f i r s t catalog records created online in the Prints and Photographs Division were for subunits of the Frances Benjamin Johnston Collection, which is composed of more than sixty groups of pictorial material created or collected by the photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston. Records for th is material were selected because they represent a range of subjects and formats that permitted catalogers t o gain experience with the system; a t the same time, they constitute a defined s e t of records to which the staff and users can become accustomed i n searching graphic materials online.

&taloging Servitz Bulletin, No. 35 (Winter 1987)

The descriptive portions of the catalog records a re formulated according t o the guidelines found in Graphic mterials: Rules for Describing Original Items and Historical ~ o l l e c t i a n s , ~ the AACR 2-based manual for such materials. In a few cases it has been necessary to deviate from practices recommended i n the manual-specifically those relating t o terms used in the physical description and the order or phrasing of n o t e e a s experience in describing graphic materials and creatingmachine-readablerecordshasbeengained. Descriptiveaccess points a r e made according t o AACR 2 for both choice of entry and form of heading.

NamesusedasaccesspointsaredrawnfromtheLibraryofCongress authority files. Names not found in either the name or subject authority f i le a re established for inclusion in the appropriate file.

Topical access points a r e taken from the LC Thesaurus for Graphic Materials: Topical Subjects (lctgm), which is being prepared for publication in 1987. These terms appear i n the 650 fields of the records. Terms used to index the genre or format of the picture-as opposed t o the topics or themes depicted-are drawn from Descriptive Terms for Graphic mterials: Genre and Physical Gharacteristics ~ e a d i n g s ~ (gmgpc). These terms appear i n the 655 and 755 fields.

It should be noted that catalog records for original and historical graphic materials a r e not immutable: identification and description of unpublished, archival materials is necessarily a cumulative process, and data may be altered or augmented over time when it is desirable for the cataloging data t o reflect newly available information. Moreover, national standards for visual materials cataloging are still developing; thus, conventions for description and provisions for subject access w i l l evolve a s catalogers of pictorial materials s t r ive to communicate clearly the complex and often unique characteristics of graphic materials.

A more detailed description of the distinctive features of the catalogrecords c rea tedin the Prints andPhotographsDivisionandthe tools that guide in their creation w i l l be issued when the records a re distributed in the f i r s t quarter of 1987.

UK MARC RECORDS

UK MARC records come to the Library of Congress from the British Library in the UK MARC format. The Cataloging Distribution Service converts these records into the US MARC format for redistribution to subscribers t o these records. During the conversion process a + d W is added t o the 040 field. This is done autanatically by the conversion software; Library of Congress cataloging staff do not review any of these records. Consequently, no changes are made to the cataloging data; changes occur only in the machine-readable formatting of the records.

CDS DISC DISTRIBUTION PILOT PROJECT

The Cataloging Distribution Service (CDS) is continuing its efforts t o investigate the feasibility of producing LC MARC databases on CD-ROM. A s the next s tep in its research and development effort, CDS announces that a contract for the "CDS Disc Distribution Pilot Project: Implementation Phase" has been awarded t o Online Computer Systems, Inc., of Germantown, Md.

During the implementation phase of the project, Online Computer Systems w i l l work closely with the Library of Congress to design the software needed t o process LC's bibliographic and authority records i n the compact disc format; t o produce actual compact discs containing the MARC files; t o perform quality assurance testing; and to develop system and user documentation. A major part of the project w i l l include a six-month Alpha t e s t with LC. During th is period the Library w i l l evaluate the overall ut i l i ty of the CD-ROM f i les t o LC's operations a s well a s investigate the possible expansion of its distribution service t o include USMARC records in an optical format.

CDS w i l l develop four different configurations of the MARC databases:

1) The complete database of bibliographic records for a l l formats: books, maps, music, serials, and visual materials.

2) Only records i n the books format.

3) Name authority records.

4) Subject authority records.

It is estimated that sixteen months w i l l be required for the ent ire project. Questions or comments concerning the project may be ,/?
