From: SACO Cataloging Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Berthoud, Heidy I Sent: Monday, May 19, 2025 2:43 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [SACOLIST] SACO Shorts: Related terms (RTs) are reciprocal (common problem) Earlier this month, we looked at the basics of related terms (RTs) and when to include them in proposals (see When to include related terms (RTs) in proposals, published on May 5). There is another important thing to keep in mind when proposing RTs: RTs are reciprocal. This means that headings related through RTs must have RTs to each other. Examples 100 3 $a Jacobs family 500 3 $a Jacobus family 500 3 $a Jacoby family 100 3 $a Jacobus family 500 3 $a Jacobs family 100 3 $a Jacoby family 500 3 $a Jacobs family 150 $a Care of the sick 550 $a Home nursing 150 $a Home nursing 550 $a Care of the sick 150 $a Dwellings 550 $a Housing 150 $a Housing 550 $a Dwellings Any time you propose a new or changed RT, you also need to propose an RT at the reciprocal heading as well. For example, the heading Natural gas distribution was established in November 2023 with the RT Natural gas pipelines. The proposer also had to submit a change proposal to Natural gas pipelines to add the RT Natural gas distribution. Proposers frequently forget this step! If you forget to propose the reciprocal relationship-and if your RT is valid and follows the instructions in H 370<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.loc.gov/aba/publications/FreeSHM/H0370.pdf__;!!KGKeukY!ycz_pfP7nwBDf4aiUVSzEeCpuuH_t3HV2uyd1I_UIyB2YCaPE86aTnNIttJQD01Bc_V2DxkA33MHO1w74g$ >-PTCP will try to make the proposal for you at point of review. Depending on the topic, we may need to reach out for additional information. As always, it helps PTCP work more efficiently when the necessary proposals are already in place. SACO Shorts are quick tips that cover common proposal problems or frequently asked questions. SACO Shorts are published on the first and third Mondays of the month.
