1 ALA Annual Conference June 28, 2015 Janis L. Young Policy and Standards Division Library of Congress

2  New coding in 682 field ◦ LCCN of “replacement” record coded in subfield $0 (zero) ◦ Legend (DLC) precedes the number ◦ SHM H 193.5 has been revised 2

3  Example (one “replacement” heading) ◦ Old style: 682 $i This authority record has been deleted because the subject heading is covered by the name heading $a [heading] $i n 2015123456. ◦ New style: 682 $i This authority record has been deleted because the subject heading is covered by the name heading $a [heading] $0 (DLC)n 2015123456 3

4  Example (multiple “replacement” headings) ◦ Old style: 682 $i This authority record has been deleted because the heading is covered by the subject headings $a [heading 1] $i sh2015123456 and $a [heading 2] $i sh2014234567. ◦ New style: 682 $i This authority record has been deleted because the heading is covered by the subject headings $a [heading 1] $0 (DLC)sh2015123456 $i and $a [heading 2] $0 (DLC)sh2014234567 4

5  Geonames.org is not an official website of either GNIS (domestic names) or GNS (foreign names) ◦ Does not fulfill the requirement to cite GNIS or GNS in a proposal  Required websites are listed in H 690 ◦ GNIS: http://geonames.usgs.gov/domestic/index.htmlhttp://geonames.usgs.gov/domestic/index.html ◦ GNS: http://geonames.nga.mil/namesgaz/http://geonames.nga.mil/namesgaz/ 5

6  Resources about ◦ An individual work ◦ An individual work, but the specific work cannot be determined ◦ Multiple related works that share music, a story, and sometimes a title 6

7  For resources about individual works ◦ Assign the title or name-title heading as established in the name authority file 600 10 $a Balanchine, George. $t Mozartiana. 7

8  When the specific work being discussed cannot be determined and for discussions of multiple related works ◦ Until 2015, headings were established in the name authority file ◦ Now established as subject headings ◦ NAF record remains valid until it is cancelled 650 #0 $a Romeo and Juliet (Choreographic work) 8

9  More information ◦ SHM H 1366.5, Choreographic Works 9

10  Proposals that are not approved, and the cataloger tries again ◦ Example:  Inland Northwest National Wildlife Refuge Complex (Wash. and Idaho)  List 8 (2014)  List 5 (2015) 10

11  Require a significant amount of LC staff time to process and vet  Mistakes happen ◦ Email saco@loc.gov or the specialist in charge of the list to inquiresaco@loc.gov  Not SACOlist or PCClist 11

12  Source citations ◦ Allow the proposal to be vetted during the editorial process ◦ Serve as a permanent record for future reference and consultation 12

13  All elements of the proposal should be supported by source citations ◦ Heading, including any qualifier ◦ References  UFs (except UFs made based on rules, not usage)  BTs  RTs ◦ Scope note 13

14  LC pattern is not a substitute for complete source citations ◦ Justifies the form of entry, not the concept ◦ 952 field is not distributed through the MARC Distribution Service 14
