Learning Objectives for Module 2 --
Describing Carriers and Identifying Works
o Describing Carriers
o Other Elements of Manifestations and
Items
o Introduction to Works
o Elements for Works
5
Unit 1: Describing Carriers
o RDA Chapter 3
o Will not discuss specific elements for resources
of special formats (films, maps, scores, etc.)
o Examples available in RDA, in MARC
documentation, and in LC compilation of
examples
6
Replacement for GMD - 245 $h
Three new MARC fields - developed with ONIX
publishing community:
Content type -- RDA 6.9 -- MARC 336 field
Media type -- RDA 3.2 -- MARC 337 field
Carrier type -- RDA 3.3 -- MARC 338 field
7
MARC for Content, Media, Carrier
In each of the three fields for these
elements (336-338):
$a term
$b code
$2 “rdacontent” or “rdamedia” or
“rdacarrier” as appropriate
$3 materials specified - give if
appropriate
8
Controlled Vocabularies for
Content, Media, Carrier Types
Closed lists in RDA 6.9.1.3, 3.2.1.3, 3.3.1.3
If more than one term appropriate, two
choices:
Give all: repeat field
Pick the term representing the predominant or
most substantial content, media, carrier
If the information is unknown, record
“unspecified”
If no term is appropriate, record “other” and
notify LC via a message to LChelp4rda@loc.gov
9
Content Type
CORE ELEMENT
RDA 6.9
“ … the fundamental form of communication in
which the content is expressed and the human
sense through which it is intended to be perceived”
Terms from Table 6.1
Instead of recording all, you may record the
content type that applies to the predominant or
most substantial parts of the resource
MARC 336 field
Examples: performed music
still image
text
10
Media Type
LC CORE ELEMENT
RDA 3.2
“… the general type of intermediation device
required to view, play, run, etc., the content of a
resource”
Terms from Table 3.1
Instead of recording all, may record the media
type that applies to the predominant or most
substantial parts of the resource
MARC 337 field
Examples: audio
computer
microform
unmediated
11
Carrier Type
CORE ELEMENT
RDA 3.3
“ … the format of the storage medium and housing
of a carrier in combination with the type of
intermediation device required … ”
Terms listed in 3.3.1.3
Instead of recording all, may record the carrier
type that applies to the predominant or most
substantial parts of the resource
MARC 338 field
Examples: audio disc
computer disc
microfiche
volume
videodisc
12
Example:
MARC 336-338 Fields
Book:
336 $a text $2 rdacontent
337 $a unmediated $2 rdamedia
338 $a volume $2 rdacarrier
13
Voyager Templates:
MARC 336 - 338 Fields
14
Extent
LC CORE ELEMENT
RDA 3.4
“The number and type of units and/or
subunits making up a resource”
Unit = a physical or logical constituent of
a resource (e.g., a volume)
Subunit = a physical or logical subdivision
of a unit (e.g., a page of a volume)
MARC 300 $a
15
Recording Extent
Give if the resource is complete or if the total
extent is known
RDA 3.4.1.3
Give number of units and appropriate term:
Sometimes a term from carrier type list
(RDA 3.3.1.3)
Another term to designate the type of unit
(RDA 3.4.1.5) if term not in list, or prefer a
term in common use
Several categories covered by exceptions
(e.g., text, still images, notated music,
cartographic resources)
16
Extent of Text
Single Volume with Numbered Pages,
Leaves, or Columns (3.4.5.2)
Single Volume with Unnumbered Pages,
Leaves, or Columns (3.4.5.3)
RDA lists three options
LCPS 3.4.5.3 continues AACR2 practice
For LC original cataloging, usually follow
method c) 1 volume (unpaged)
Complicated or Irregular Paging (3.4.5.8)
RDA lists three options
LCPS 3.4.5.3 continues AACR2 practice
For LC original cataloging, usually follow
method c) 1 volume (various pagings)
17
Changes From AACR2
Related to Extent
Do not use abbreviations for terms (e.g.,
“pages,” “volumes”, not “p.,” “v.”)
Use “approximately” (rather than “ca.”)
and “that is” (rather than “i.e.”)
Use “unnumbered”, rather than square
brackets enclosing the numeral
Be aware of changes in vocabulary from
AACR2, e.g.: “computer disc” is used for
both “computer disk” and “computer
optical disc”
18
Dimensions
LC CORE for resources other than serials
and online electronic resources
RDA 3.5
“Measurements of the carrier or carriers
and/or the container of a resource”
Rounded up to next whole centimeter
“cm” and “mm” are symbols, not
abbreviations
use ISBD full stop after symbol only if a 490 field
appears in the record
MARC 300 $c
19
LC Practices: Dimensions
LC practice for Alternative:
Use inches for discs (RDA 3.5.1.4.4) and
for all audio carriers; otherwise, follow
the RDA instruction as written
LC Practice for serials:
Note that dimensions is not a Core
Element for serials and online resources.
But you may record it if you wish

Note: If copied records include repeated subfields $a,
rather than multiple fields, you can accept them as is:
336 $a text $a cartographic image $a still image $2 rdacontent
23
Example:
MARC 300 $a, 336-338
Book with accompanying CD of lecture: $3 and $e

* The use of $3 in this example is optional.
Instead of $e, can repeat 300 field
300 $a 244 pages ...
300 $a 1 CD ...
Instead of $e, can give a note
500 $a Accompanied by a CD. 24
Examples:

dimensional form $2 rdacontent
337 $a audio $a unmediated $2 rdamedia
338 $a audio disc $a volume $a object
$2 rdacarrier
* The use of multiple subfields $a in the 336 field is
acceptable if this is a copied record, but for LC
cataloging, you would record separate 33X fields

Unit 2: Exercises on Carriers
Exercises #3-#4 Carriers
28
Unit 3: Other Elements of
Manifestations and Items
Acquisition and Access Information
Terms of availability (RDA 4.2)
Contact information (RDA 4.3)
Restrictions on access (RDA 4.4)
Restrictions on use (RDA 4.5)
Uniform Resource Locator (RDA 4.6)
29
Terms of Availability
RDA 4.2
LCPS: Generally do not provide
prices or other availability
information except for rental scores
or rental performance materials
Example:
020 $a 0460044524 : $c Rental material
30
Contact Information
RDA 4.3
Record contact information for a publisher,
distributor, etc., if it is considered to be
important for acquisition or access
Examples:
http://www.HaworthPress.com
Alabama Department of Archives and History.
624 Washington Avenue, Montgomery, AL 36130-0100
31
Restrictions on Access
RDA 4.4
Record all restrictions on access to the
resource, including the nature and duration
of the restriction, as specifically as
possible. The absence of restrictions may
also be noted if it is considered to be
important
Example:
Access restricted to subscribers via a username
and password or IP address authentication
32
Restrictions on Use
RDA 4.5
LCPS: The CORE requirement is limited to the
non-General Collections at the Library of
Congress
MARC 540 field
Example:
This film is restricted to classroom use
33
Uniform Resource Locator
LC CORE ELEMENT
RDA 4.6
Address of the remote access resource
being cataloged
LCPS 4.2.1.3 - If there is more than
one Uniform Resource Locator for the
resource, record all
MARC 856 field
34
Uniform Resource Locator
Changes Requiring the Addition,
Revision, or Deletion of a Uniform
Resource Locator
LCPS 4.6.1.4 provides LC practice for
two situations:
When the original URI is no longer active
When the original URI is still active, but the
original resource is no longer available

Unit 4: Introduction to Works
Where are the Instructions?
Naming the Work
LC Decisions on …
Bibliographic or Authority?
Core Elements to Distinguish
Language and Script
Terminology
Sources
Authorized Access Points for Works
41
Where are the Instructions?
Generally, the instructions for
identifying works and expressions are
in chapter 6.
You will also need to consult the
related instructions in:
Chapter 19, “Persons, Families, and
Corporate Bodies Associated with a
Work”
Chapter 20, “Persons, Families, and
Corporate Bodies Associated with an
Expression”
42
“Naming the Work”
Just like ‘naming’ persons and corporate
bodies (and now, families)
Similar to AACR2 concept of “main entry”
MARC has four possibilities for where this
information can be coded
1XX + 240
1XX + 245
130
245
43
LC Decisions on …
Bibliographic or Authority Data?
RDA does not prescribe if attributes
about the work and the access points
are to be recorded as bibliographic
data or authority data
LC Policy:
Always identify the work by giving the
access point in the bibliographic record
Sometimes identify the work by making a
title or name/title authority record -- no
changes from policy in DCM Z1
44
LC Decisions on …
Core Elements to Distinguish
If elements are being recorded to
distinguish one work from another or
from the name of a person, family, or
corporate body, RDA gives choices for
recording the elements (RDA 0.6.3):
LC policy
always give as additions to the authorized
access point
cataloger judgment to also give as
separate elements in authority records
45
LC Decisions on …
Language and Script
Title for a work in the language
and script in which it appears in
the resource (RDA 5.4)
U.S.: in authorized and variant access
points: apply the alternative to give a
romanized form
For some languages (see LCPS 5.4),
can also give variant access points
(MARC 4XX) in original
language/script in authority records
46
Terminology Related to “Works”
Title of the work (RDA 6.2.1.1)
“word, character, or group of words and/or
characters by which a work is known”
Preferred title for the work (RDA 6.2.2.1)
the form of title used when constructing the
authorized access point
Variant title for the work (RDA 6.2.3.1)
the form of title used when constructing a
variant access point
aka “see references”
47
Sources of Information –
Sources for Preferred Titles (6.2.2.2)
Commonly-known title
For a work created after 1500
From resources embodying the work or from
reference sources
Sometimes: title proper of the first manifestation
received
For a work created before 1501
From modern reference sources
If this evidence is inconclusive, use (in this order):
a) modern editions
b) early editions
c) manuscript copies
48
Sources of Information –
Sources for Other Elements (6.1.1)
For all other identifying attributes of
works and expressions
Take the information from any
source
49
Authorized Access Points for Works
(6.27.1.1 - 6.27.1.8)
How to put together the elements to
construct an authorized access point
Preferred title is the basis
Authorized access point for the creator
precedes the preferred title, as applicable
Additions to the preferred title as instructed
under 6.27.1.9
Links back to the instructions on
recording each of the specific elements
50
Unit 5: Elements for Works
Entities Responsible for a Work
Preferred Title for the Work
Compilations vs. Collaborations
Additions to Access Points for Works
Variant Access Points for Works
MARC Authority Fields for Works
51
Entities Responsible for a Work
RDA 0.6.3
“when creating the authorized access
point for the work, precede the
preferred title for the work, if
appropriate, by the authorized access
point representing the person,
family, or corporate body responsible
for the intellectual or artistic content
of the work”
52
Entities Responsible for a Work –
Where are the Instructions?
Creator is a
relationship to a
work; it isn’t an
attribute of the
work.
So we will find the
instructions about
creators in Chapter
19, not Chapter 6.
“contributors” are responsible for an expression
• discussed in Chapter 20 (and covered in Module 3)
53
Entities Responsible for a Work –
Sources
Preferred sources of information
Other statements appearing
prominently in the resource
Use cataloger judgment
Information appearing only in the
content
Other sources
54
Creator (19.2)
CORE ELEMENT
“person, family, or corporate body
responsible for the creation of a work”
If more than one entity is responsible for the
work as a whole:
The creator having principal responsibility
named first in the resource is required
If principal responsibility is not indicated, only
the first-named creator is required
LCPS 19.2 says to use cataloger judgment in
deciding whether to provide authorized access
points for additional creators, beyond the core
55
What About Contributors?
“ … contributing to the realization of a
work through an expression”
Editors, translators, illustrators,
arrangers of music, performers,
writers of commentary, and others
Covered in next module on Expressions
56
Creator – Changes from AACR2
No “rule of three” to identify the
work only by its preferred title when
there are more than three creators
Performer of works by different
composers presented in a sound
recording is not automatically
considered a creator
57
Compilers and Modifiers as Creators
(19.2.1.1)
An entity responsible for compiling an
aggregate work may be considered a
creator of the compilation if the selection,
arrangement, editing, etc., of content for
the compilation effectively results in the
creation of a new work;
An entity responsible for modifying a
previously existing work in a way that
substantially changes the nature or content
of the original is considered a creator of the
new work.
58
Corporate Bodies as Creators
Categories of works (RDA 19.2.1.1.1)
Similar to AACR2 21.1B2
Corporate body takes precedence over
a first-named person or family as
creator
LCPS, similar to RI for 21.21B2
RDA 19.2.1.1.2 on government and
religious officials as creators
59
Preferred Title for the Work
CORE ELEMENT
General instructions

61
Instructions on Recording
Preferred Titles (6.2.2)
Scope and sources
6.2.2.1 – 6.2.2.2
Choosing preferred titles
6.2.2.3 – 6.2.2.7
Recording preferred titles
6.2.2.8 – 6.2.2.10
62
Preferred Title for the Work –
Specific Categories
some musical works (6.14.2)
some legal works (6.19.2)
some religious works (6.23.2)
some official communications
(6.26.2)
63
Preferred Title –
Parts of a Work (6.2.2.9)
Other than musical or religious works
RDA makes a distinction depending
on the number of parts
one (6.2.2.9.1)
two or more (6.2.2.9.2)
64
Parts of a Work –
One Part (6.2.2.9.1)
“Record the preferred title for the
part, applying the basic instructions
on recording titles of works given
under 6.2.1.”
Preferred title for a part of J.R.R.
Tolkien’s The lord of the rings:
Two towers
Preferred title for a part of the
television program The Simpsons:
A streetcar named Marge
65
Parts of a Work –
Two or More Parts (6.2.2.9.2)
Consecutively numbered, with only a general
designation
“Record the designation of the parts … followed by
the inclusive numbers of the parts”
e.g., preferred title for the first six books of
Homer’s Iliad: Book 1–6
Two or more unnumbered or non-consecutively
numbered parts
“Record the preferred title for each of the parts”
e.g., preferred title for a part of Divina
commedia in a compilation also comprising the
part Paradiso: Purgatorio
But see next slide……….
66
Two or More Parts
LC Policy for the Alternative
LC practice (LCPS 6.2.2.9.2)
“Instead of recording the preferred title for
each of the parts, record the conventional
collective title Selections as the preferred
title for the parts.”
e.g., preferred title for the parts of the
work in a compilation comprising books 1
and 6 of Homer’s Iliad
Selections
67
Authorized Access Point for
Part(s) of a Work (6.27.2)
Generally:
preferred title for part(s)
preceded by authorized access point
for the creator, if appropriate
68
Authorized Access Point for
Part(s) of a Work -- Exceptions
Applies to
non-distinctive titles
serials and integrating resources
television/radio programs
consecutively-numbered parts
Instruction
preferred title for part(s)
preceded by authorized access point
for the work
69
Compilations and Collaborations
Important distinction
Determines how each is ‘identified’
Compilations
RDA 6.27.1.4
Collaborations
RDA 6.27.1.3
We will first discuss compilations
70
How to Decide?
Clues that you have a compilation:
Indication of who created what
From the preferred source, table of
contents, preface, program notes, home
page, other components in the resource
Assume it is a collaboration if:
you have no indication who created what
you are in doubt
71
Multiple Works by One Creator
Must be treated as a compilation
i.e., there are no collaborators
Identified by
Creator
+
Preferred title
72
Preferred Title – Compilations of
One P - F - CB (6.2.2.10)
Has compilation become known by a title?
Not usually
But, e.g., Leaves of grass is an example of a
compilation known by a title
If not, use a conventional collective title
(doesn’t matter if title proper is distinctive):
Complete works = use “Works”
Complete works in a single form = use term
chosen by cataloger
Other compilations of two or more (but not all)
works in same form or different forms = add
“Selections” to the conventional collective title
73
Preferred Title – Compilations of
One P - F - CB (cont.)
Major changes from AACR2!
Under RDA, LC catalogers will no
longer need to:
Determine if the creator created works
only in a single form
Determine if the title proper of the
compilation is “distinctive”
74
Example: Compilation of 2
Works by the Same Creator
AACR2: use the 1st work as the preferred title
(but this misidentifies the compilation)
100 $a Miller, Arthur, $d 1915-2005
1#
240 $a Archbishop’s ceiling
10
245 $a Two plays / $c Arthur Miller.
10
505 $a The Archbishop’s ceiling -- The
0#
American clock.
700 12 $a Miller, Arthur, $d 1915-2005.
$t American clock.
75
Example (cont.)
2 Works by the Same Creator
RDA: apply the alternative to use a
conventional collective title
100 $a Miller, Arthur, $d 1915-2005
1#
240 $a Plays. $k Selections
10
245 $a Two plays / $c Arthur Miller.
10
505 $a The Archbishop’s ceiling -- The
0#
American clock.
700 12 $a Miller, Arthur, $d 1915-2005.
$t Archbishop’s ceiling.
*700 12 $a Miller, Arthur, $d 1915-2005.
$t American clock.
* 2nd 700 not a core requirement but helpful to the user
76
Multiple Works by Multiple Creators --
Compilations vs. Collaborations
Compilation
Preferred title
Without a creator, because there is no
single creator of the individual works
Collaboration
Creator (principal or first-named)
+
Preferred title
77
Preferred Title – Compilations
of Works by Different Creators
Compilation of separate works
Identify the compilation by its
preferred title (6.27.1.4)
Either …
Title by which the compilation has
become known (uncommon), or
The title proper of the manifestation
e.g., Best of Broadway (for a set of five CDs
with selections from original cast recordings of
various musicals by various composers)
But see next slide ………
78
What if Such a Compilation
Lacks a Collective Title?
RDA and LCPS 25.1
How to treat:
1. For the preferred title, use the title proper of
the first work in the compilation, and
2. Provide an analytical authorized access point
for the predominant or first work in the
compilation, when it represents a substantial
part of the resource.
Generally, do not devise a title to use as a
preferred title.
LC does not apply the alternative to 6.27.1.4
A work that is part of a larger work is
considered a whole-part “related work”
79
Example: Compilation of Works by
Different Creators (No Collective Title)
AACR2: use the 1st work as the preferred title
(but this misidentifies the compilation)
100 1# $a Polk, Sharon.
240 10 $a Community band concerts
245 10 $a Community band concerts / $c
Sharon Polk. Fall harvest
festivals / Terri Swanson.
700 12 $a Swanson, Terri. $t Fall harvest
festivals.
80
Example (cont.): Compilation of Works by
Different Creators (No Collective Title)

LC Policy on Differentiating Works --
LCPS 6.27.1.9
Generally:
“catalog” = the file against which cataloging is
being done; may also take into account any
resource which is known
use the a.a.p. whenever the resource is referred
to in other a.p.’s (including subjects) or in notes
citing relationships between resources
resolve the conflict by making an addition to the
a.a.p. in the bibliographic record being created;
do not also modify the existing record
do not predict a conflict
when a resource is republished or reproduced, the
a.a.p. for the original is used for any republication
90
LC Policy on Differentiating Works --
LCPS 6.27.1.9
“… with a parenthetical qualifier …”
Choice of qualifying term: Use judgment.
corporate body
date of publication
descriptive data elements, e.g., edition
statement
place of publication
any word(s) that will serve to distinguish
the works
more than one qualifier if needed
list not prescriptive, not in priority order
91
LC Policy on Differentiating Works --
LCPS 6.27.1.9
Form of qualifying term:
Corporate body: use the authorized
access point
Place of publication: use the authorized
access point without any cataloger’s
addition

qualifiers with a space-colon-space
within one set of parentheses
92

Variant Access Points for Works
6.27.4.1 - 6.27.4.4
General principle: “use a variant title for
the work as the basis for a variant
access point.”
Example:
Authorized access point for the work
Dickens, Charles, 1812–1870. Pickwick
papers
Variant access point for the work
Dickens, Charles, 1812–1870.
Posthumous papers of the Pickwick

98
Variant Access Points for Works
(cont.)
RDA also allows a variant access point, using
just the preferred title, and formulated using
other creators (e.g., collaborators not chosen
as the principal creator).
Example:
Authorized access point for the work:
Christo, 1935– . Wrapped Reichstag.
Variant access point for the work:
Jeanne-Claude, 1935– . Wrapped Reichstag
(A work of art created jointly by Christo and Jeanne-
