The 1XX field relates only to the title in the 240 or 245.  Fields 730 and 740 
should be used for titles that do not have a personal, family, or corporate 
body name as part of the authorized access point.  There is no inherent 
relationship between a title given in 7XX (or 8XX) and a name given in 1XX.

For separate works of one person/family/corporate body, I think that we use 
730/740 fields.
Thanks,

Recording each separate work's title is something we do all the time in music

this way, RDA (for instance, in 6.2.2.10.3, Alternative) allows you either to 
stop at that or also to include the conventional collective title, which in 
MARC would go in the 240.

Subject: Re: [RDA-L] Question about preferred title for a compilation

Hi Joan,

Yes, I think that is correct: 6.2.2.10.3 a) covers selected works in a single 
form, and 6.2.2.10.3 b) covers selected works in more than one form (meaning, 
some of the selections are in one form, and some selections are in different 
form(s)).

In the case of selected works in more than one form, I think we use the 
conventional collective title Works. followed by Selections (instead of, for 
example, Novels. Selections).

LC prefers the alternative of using these conventional collective titles 
instead of recording each separate title. What I'm unsure of is, if we do 
record each separate work's title, how does that work in MARC?

Thanks and have a great weekend as well!

-Arthur

Let me rephrase my question. Thanks to Arthur's help.
Does 6.2.2.10.3 "other compilations" includes selected works in a single form, 
and selected works not in a single form? If it is, the languages of the rule is 
too "grey" :)

For both categories, RDA tells us to record the preferred title for each of the 
works in a compilation. It also has an alternative: identify the parts 
collectively by recording a conventional collective title as applicable, 
followed by Selections. The example is Novels. Selections.
I wonder how effective the alternative can be in the application of selected 
works not in a single form. A simple Selections seems to be more reasonable.
Thanks for your time. I am also tired with the question :)

Have a wonderful weekend!

I still think that the preferred tile for a work is different from a title 
proper found in a manifestation. So some instructions or references would be 
helpful.

by the way, I feel that a good word would be selected works in single form and 
selected works not in single form.

Seems to be reasonable.

Hi Joan,

My understanding is:

"Complete works" means all the works by a person, in all forms that the person 
worked in. (6.2.2.10.1)

"Complete works in a single form" means all the works by a person in a 
particular form, e.g. all the plays by a person, but not the novels by that 
person. (6.2.2.10.2)

"Other compilations of two or more works" means incomplete works, or a 
compilation of two or more works by a person which does not constitute all the 
works by that person, and does not constitute all the works by that person in a 
particular form. (6.2.2.10.3)

"two or more but not all works ... in a particular form" means your phrase 
"incomplete works in a single form". (6.2.2.10.3 a)

"two or more but not all works ... in various forms" means your phrase 
"incomplete works not in a single form". (6.2.2.10.3 b)


Your phrase "complete works not in a single form" is simply 6.2.2.10.1.


For example, Person A wrote five plays and five novels. A compilation of all 
ten works would be 6.2.2.10.1. A compilation of all 5 plays (but no novels) 
would be 6.2.2.10.2 (same for a compilation of all 5 novels only). A 
compilation of three of the plays only would be 6.2.2.10.3a. A compilation of 
two of the plays and three of the novels would be 6.2.2.10.3b.


I think the lack of any subsection in 6.2.2 for compilations by more than one 
person/family/corporate body means there are no special rules for those 
compilations. In other words, we don't use "conventional collective titles" for 
those, so we default to whatever title the compilation is known by (maybe the 
title proper).

Hi, All

I have a question about preferred title for a compilation.

RDA 6.2.2.10 instructs us to record preferred title for a complication of works 
of one person/family/corporate body. It is organized by three sections:

6.2.2.10 Recording the Preferred Title for a Compilation of Works of One 
Person, Family, or Corporate Body

  *   6.2.2.10.1 complete works
  *   6.2.2.10.2 complete works in single form
  *   6.2.2.10.3 other complications of two or more works.

I have a problem to understand 6.2.2.10.3. First of all, do we really need "of 
two or more works" in the heading? I assume that a compilation is always 
composed of more than one. If my understanding is correct, the term compilation 
already tells us that.

Secondly, what are included in other complications? If following the logic 
inherent in the organization of 6.2.2.10. I would expect incomplete works, 
complete works not in single form, incomplete works in single form, and 
incomplete works not in single form after the two sections of complete works 
and complete works in single form.

Actually under  6.2.2.10.3, it does have a condition: Record the preferred 
title for each of the works in a compilation that consists of: a) two or more 
but not all the works of one person, family, or corporate body, in a particular 
form or b) two or more but not all the works of one person, family, or 
corporate body, in various forms.

 Does a) condition means complete works not in single form and incomplete works 
not in single form? And b) means incomplete works?

I assume that for these other compilations, we can record the preferred title 
for each of the works, or, use Selections, or, identify the parts collectively 
by recording a conventional collective title as applicable, followed by 
Selections, such as Novels. Selections. But RDA does not mention an alternative 
for Selections. Or we cannot use Selections at all?

Also, is there a section for a compilation of works by more than one 
person/family/corporate body?

RDA 6.27.1.4 (Compilations of Works by Different Persons, Families, or 
Corporate Bodies) does refer to 6.2.2 for constructing preferred title for a 
compilation of works by different persons, families, or corporate bodies. But I 
cannot find a relevant section under 6.2.2. I would expect that after 6.2.2.10.

Any clarification would be appreciated.



Thanks,

Joan Wang
