The last time I looked at this LC-PCC PS (a few days ago), it had not yet been changed. I don’t know if LC plans to follow the rest of the PCC on this.
Adam Schiff University of Washington Libraries From: Panchyshyn, Roman Sent: Wednesday, October 02, 2013 6:01 AM To: RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA Subject: [RDA-L] Relationship designators, LC and PCC Core Folks, I am looking to corroborate some information about relationship designator use, and this disgraceful government shutdown is giving me problems accessing information from LC. Regarding the use of relationship designators, right now the LC-PCC-PS for 18.5.1.3 states that their use at LC is only mandatory for use for illustrators of children’s materials only. Earlier this year, a task group called the PCC Relationship Designator Task Force issued guidelines that were accepted by PoCo, that stated: “Include a relationship designator for all creators, whether they are preferred access points or added access points. If the 1XX is not a creator, the addition of a relationship designator is optional.” I believe a decision was made that LC was going to change the LC-PCC-PS and adopt this PCC recommendation, and I’m just looking for confirmation that this is so. Thank you. Roman S. Panchyshyn, MLIS Catalog Librarian, Assistant Professor University Libraries Kent State University tel: 330-672-1699 e-mail: rpanc...@kent.edu
