Adam--Can you give any examples of NACO authority records that have qualifiers like your "Best of X's poetry?" I have been unable to turn any up and am curious. Thanks.

The PCC NACO training says to add additional work element (date, place of origin, or other distinguishing characteristic) to the conventional collective title. The date is probably NOT the best thing to add, although it's one option. Many NACO libraries are adding the title proper of the collection instead, since it may better aid in identification, for example: X. Poems. Selections (Best of X's poetry) Some catalogers are not happy with this practice, and would prefer to consider the title of the compilation to be the preferred title by which the compilation is known. LC's policy, however, implies that the compiled work does not become known by its title except through the passage of time (e.g. Whitman's Leaves of Grass), and that for newly published compiled works, a conventional collective title must be used instead. Incidentally, although the RDA instructions do seem to be clear that the date would be added in parentheses as you have done, in practice in MARC these are being added in subfield $f following a period: X. $t Poems. $k Selections. $f 2010 Adam Schiff Principal Cataloger University of Washington Libraries -----Original Message----- From: Heidrun Wiesenmüller Sent: Monday, December 16, 2013 12:41 AM To: RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA Subject: [RDA-L] 6.2.2.10 and 6.27.1.9 I am uncertain about the relationship of 6.2.2.10 (Recording the Preferred Title for a Compilation of Works of One Person, Family, or Corporate Body) and 6.27.1.9 (Additions to Access Points Representing Works) - both in theory and in practice. If I've got two different collections of works of the same creator, e.g.: "Selected poems / X" "Best of X's poetry" Both get the collective title "Poems. Selections" according to 6.2.2.10.2. But for the AAP, am I now supposed to add some additional attribute according to 6.27.1.9, e.g.: X. Poems. Selections (1995) X. Poems. Selections (2010) In short, my question is whether RDA considers the two different poetry collections as two different works (which must then be distinguished in the AAP) or as the same work (then, of course, no additional attribute would be necessary in the AAP). I'm also interested in the general practice. I know that LC used to add dates (at least in the case of complete works and selected works), but that this practice has now been abandoned. So I assume that LC now never distinguishes between different collections of the same type. What do others do?
