If: an individual responsible for a work has more than one identity (see 9.2.2.8) and there is no consistency in how that individual is identified on resources embodying the work then: construct the authorized access point representing the work by combining (in this order): a) the authorized access point representing the identity most frequently used on resources embodying the work (see 9.19.1) b) the preferred title for the work (see 6.2.2). If the identity used most frequently cannot be readily determined, construct the authorized access point representing the work by combining (in this order): a) the authorized access point representing the identity appearing in the most recent resource embodying the work b) the preferred title for the work (see 6.2.2). ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Adam L.
