Relationship DesignatorsThey ‘designate relationships’ (duh!)Appendices I, J, and K are ‘open’ listsOnly a few designators are core That’s what we’ll focus on in this moduleOtherwise, cataloger judgmentIf you use them, use them appropriatelyConsult the PCC Guidelines for the Application of Relationship Designators in Bibliographic Records

Relationship Designators –PCC Guidelinesinclude a relationship designator for all creators, whether coded 1XX or 7XXuse designators from RDA appendicesprefer a specific term to a general oneif the nature of the relationship cannot be determined, do not assign a designatorif multiple designators are appropriate because the same entity has multiple roles, prefer to use repeated $e100 1 Stone,

Learning ObjectivesWhat is Authority Control?The Structure of Authority RecordsExamplesThe Broader Application of Authority Control75Slide76
Unit 1: What is Authority Control?DefinitionsWhy is Authority Control ‘Integral’?Features of Authority Control
76Slide77
77Definitions
“the control over different forms of access points”Tillett, Barbara B. “Considerations for Authority Control in the Online Environment,” in Authority Control in the Online Environment: Considerations and Practices (New York: Haworth Press, c1989)Slide78
78
Definitions“ … the controlled access points and other information that institutions use to collocate works by a specific person, family, or corporate body … ”‘the aggregate of information about a person, family, corporate body, or work whose name is used as the basis for a controlled access point for bibliographic citations or for records in a catalog’Functional Requirements of Authority Data : a conceptual model (2009, as amended and corrected through July 2013)
78Slide79
79
Definitions –What Authority Control is Not“Have you ever heard it proposed that each book should be catalogued under the form of name appearing on the title without regard to uniformity and without regard to the different forms of name adopted by the author, or arising from the different languages in which works by the same may be printed?”Question posed in 1849 by Lord Ellesmere, chairman of a group inquiring into the constitution and government of the British Museum
79Slide80
80
Why is Authority Control ‘Integral’?Perhaps the best way to understand the importance of Authority Control is to ask some questions that users might ask …Keep in mind Lord Ellesmere’s suggestion
80Slide81
81
Why is Authority Control ‘Integral’?Imagine you are searching for resources by and about former President Clinton …What do you need to know?What is his name (i.e., ‘access point’)?Clinton? Blythe? Bill? William? In what capacity?Private citizen? Head of state?Which variant names might lead you to resources?“Where in the catalog can I expect to find the resources gathered?”
81Slide82
82
Why is Authority Control ‘Integral’?Or imagine you are searching for things by and about Mark Twain … What is his name?Twain? Clemens? Another pseudonym? Which Mark Twain, if there are several?How can I distinguish the ‘right’ one from the ‘wrong’ one?“How can I be sure that I have retrieved everything associated with Mark Twain -- my Mark Twain”?
82Slide83
83
Why is Authority Control ‘Integral’?In fact, imagine that you are searching for resources by and about …William Shakespeare (how to spell it?)His work Hamlet (or is it The tragedie of Hamlet?)Muhammad Ali (or is it Cassius Clay?)Jackie Kennedy (or Jacqueline? or Onassis?)
Mao Tse-Tung or Muammar Qaddafi (what is the transliteration? what is the name-order?)OCLC (or is it one of the body’s earlier names?)“Where are you going to search?Especially if you are not sure of the spelling or ‘controlled’ form of the name?83Slide84
84
Why is Authority Control ‘Integral’?Authority Control helps you … know where to searchknow that you have retrieved everything by or about the entityknow that you have retrieved only resources related to the correct entitybe led to the correct form if you search for the wrong formWe will not look at how or why the controlled form is chosenWe will
only look at the ways an Authority Record helps you do these things84Slide85
85
Why is Authority Control ‘Integral’?FRAD: authority control is “integral to the functioning of a catalogue”Benefits catalogersHelp identify and distinguish between controlled access points in a catalogBenefits end-usersHelp search the controlled form of an author’s name or of a title to retrieve bibliographic resourcesWhat does “Controlled” mean?Constructed to ‘established’ standardsNot necessarily as it appears in resource

Overview
What follows is a very brief overview of the MARC format for Authority records, sufficient to enable you to …apply what you see in a Name Authority Record (NAR)assign the correct controlled access point(s) in bibliographic recordsrecognize NARs that need to be updated or revised by a full-level catalogerSlide90
90Overview
First, we will discuss the structure in generalFocus on the ‘big picture’ – don’t get lost trying to memorize all the details of the MARC Authority formatLater, we will learn more about the MARC coding by seeing examplesDescriptive Cataloging Manual (DCM), section Z1 Slide91

Structure similar to Bibliographic formatTagsIndicatorsSubfields…and there are patternsBut significantly differentThe difference betweencoding for a specific bibliographic resource, andcoding that tells you the controlled form of an entity’s name‘Unique-ness’Slide92
