1. Cambridge University Library RDA Training – Module 4 Identifying Expressions Adapted for Cambridge use by Céline Carty 1

2. Acknowledgements This module, and the accompanying four, are based on the training given at the British Library, which is in turn developed from that used at the Library of Congress. We would like to express our thanks to both institutions for making their training materials available to us. 2

3. 3 Identifying expressions “Expression” – the FRBR Entity Identifying the expression Authorised access points representing expressions Additions to authorised access points for expressions Contributors Describing content

4. 4 Expression – the FRBR entity The way in which a work (the idea in the creator’s mind) is expressed through … Language Sound Movement Performance … etc.

5. 100 1# $a Shakespeare, William, $d 1564– 1616, $e author. 240 10 $a Hamlet. 5 The instructions for identifying expressions, like for works, are in Chapter 6 1)Name the work 2)Add expression-level identifying information Identifying the expression $l French 5

6. 6 Authorised access points are used in bibliographic records to identify the expression being catalogued; also in 6XX and 7XX to represent relationships to other expressions Identify expressions for these types of resource by adding an attribute to the authorised access point Translations and language editions (6.27.3) Abridgements (6.2.2.10.2) Music resources (6.28.3) Sacred scriptures (6.30.3) When to identify expressions

7. Identifying the expression - Examples 100 1# $a Sullivan, Arthur, $d 1842–1900, $e composer. 240 10 $a Mikado. $o Chorus score 130 0# $a Bible. $l Latin. $s Vulgate. $f 1454. 100 1# $a Zola, Émile, $d 1840-1902, $e author. 240 10 $a Germinal. $l English 100 1# $a Graham, Kenneth, $d 1859-1932, $e author. 240 10 $a Wind in the willows. $s Abridgement 7

8. 8 For expressions in other categories, Cambridge will include the expression attributes in other fields in the bibliographic record: 264 field - Date of expression - often the date of manifestation is used 336 field - Content type How else to identify expressions

9. 9 Generally do not add more than one characteristic to differentiate an expression from another expression e.g., do not differentiate one translation of Hamlet in French from another French translation of the same work e.g., do not differentiate one abridgement of Homer’s Iliad from another abridgement of the same work Exception: may differentiate expressions of the same sacred scripture if necessary Note that this policy may change in future when FRBR is more fully implemented. Decisions on … how to identify expressions

10. 10 RDA 6.27.3 The basis is the authorised access point for the work Make additions as outlined in 6.27.3b Constructing the authorised access point representing an expression 100 1# $a Goncourt, Edmond de, $d 1822–1896, $e author. 240 10 $a Frères Zemganno. $l English

11. 11 Additions to authorised access points representing expressions Content type (6.9) Date of the expression (6.10) Language of the expression (6.11) Another distinguishing characteristic of the expression (6.12) Only if needed to differentiate No priority order

12. 12 Additions – Content type CORE ELEMENT when needed to differentiate RDA 6.9 “fundamental form of communication in which the content is expressed and the human sense through which it is intended to be perceived...” Controlled vocabulary in RDA 6.9.1.3 Recorded in subfield $h of the access point 130 0# $a Bible. $p Gospels. $l English. $s New Millenium. $h Spoken word. $f 2002. [For the audiobook of a printed text]

13. 13 Additions – Date of expression CORE ELEMENT when needed to differentiate RDA 6.10 The earliest date associated with an expression – may use date of earliest manifestation embodying the expression Take from any source Year(s) alone Recorded in subfield $f of the access point 130 0# $a Koran. $l German. $f 2000.

14. 14 Additions – Language of expression CORE ELEMENT when needed to differentiate RDA 6.11 Take from any source Use term(s) from the MARC 21 list of languages Record in subfield $l of the access point (not repeatable) Distinguish between: one expression in more than one language two or more expressions

15. 15 Language - if one expression … Work expressed in one language give $l only if a translation Work expressed in more than one language do not give $l unless a translation 100 1# $a Brunhoff, Jean de, $d 1899-1937. 240 10 $a Babar en famille. $l English 245 10 $a Babar and his children. 100 1# $a Tolstoy, Leo, graf, $d 1828-1910. 245 10 $a Voi ̆ na i mir.

16. 16 Language – if two expressions … If the manifestation is a compilation of the original and one translation of the same work (parallel text) record an analytical authorised access point for the original expression (without $l for the language) record a separate analytical authorised access point for the translation (with $l for the language)

17. 17 Two expressions - Original and one translation Original + Spanish translation in same resource : AACR 041 1# $a eng $a spa $h eng 100 1# $a Macken, JoAnn Early, $d 1953- 240 10 $a Mail carrier. $l Spanish & English 245 10 $a Mail carrier = $b El cartero / $c JoAnn Early Macken. 246 31 $a Cartero 546 ## $a Text in English with parallel translation in Spanish.

18. 18 Two expressions - Original and one translation Original + Spanish translation in same resource : RDA 041 1# $a eng $a spa $h eng 100 1# $a Macken, JoAnn Early, $d 1953- 245 10 $a Mail carrier = $b El cartero / $c JoAnn Early Macken. 246 31 $a Cartero 546 ## $a Text in English with parallel translation in Spanish. 700 12 $a Macken, JoAnn Early, $d 1953- $t Mail carrier. 700 12 $a Macken, JoAnn Early, $d 1953- $t Mail carrier. $l Spanish.

19. 19 If more than two expressions … If the compilation contains the original expression and more than one translation Record an authorised access point for the original expression (without $l for the language) Record an authorised access point for at least one translation (with $l for the language) Cambridge policy: Give all additional analytical access points unless unduly onerous

20. Three expressions – Original and two translations Original + English + Hindi translations in same resource: RDA 100 1 $a Gandhi, $c Mahatma, $d 1869-1948. 245 10 $a Hinda svara ̄ ja / $c Mohana Da ̄ sa Karamcanda Ga ̄ n ̐ dhi ̄ = Hind swaraj / M.K.

23. 23 Additions – Other distinguishing characteristic CORE ELEMENT when needed to differentiate RDA 6.12 Characteristic other than content type, language or date of expression Take from any source Recorded at the end of last subfield unless a separate subfield is available: subfield $o for musical expressions (e.g., “arranged”) subfield $s for versions of the Bible, etc.
