I am forwarding a message concerning proposed rules for forming uniform
titles of works of art. Museum documentation people will find this of
interest. The Library of Congress is accepting comments on the proposed
document until April 20.

Subject: uniform titles for works of art

NAMED WORKS OF ART
The draft rule interpretation for establishing uniform titles for
named works of art is now available on the LC web at
<http://lcweb.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/>. Bob Hiatt of the Cataloging
Policy and Support Office, editor of the Cataloging service bulletin,
came to Philadelphia to present the official draft based on the
submission from the Cataloging Advisory Committee. This rule
interpretation and guidelines will allow NACO contributors to create
name authority records for named works in the international Name
Authority File maintained at the Library of Congress. Comments are
due by April 20th. Most RIs are promulgated soon after the comment
period ends.
UNNAMED WORKS OF ART
After laying the named works of art rule interpretation at the LC
doorstep, the ARLIS/NA Cataloging Advisory Committee will move on to
unnamed works of art (recognizing that named works are the easy
part!). As a first step, Liz O'Keefe of the Morgan Library has
prepared a discussion paper which will be discussed on March 30th at
the New York art Catalogers Discussion Group. The paper is now
available on the web at
<http://www.geocities.com/WestHollywood/9783/unnamed.html>.
If you do not have easy web access and would like a copy of any of
these documents, let me know at sherman.cla...@nyu.edu.
