Re: [RDA-L] Title proper vs. other title information or at head of title

Heidrun discussed at head of title. One of the more frustrating situations for us is diversity in treatment of artists' names at head of title for exhibition catalogues. If the subtitle is distinctive, some see the artist's name as responsible person at head of title. I finally persuated Lucia

Mac, With 264 0, the distinction means little in RDA. Only one fixed field and 264 2nd indicator are affected. This is not RDA, it is MARC. I have said for some time that I think that the whole continuum from unpublished to published needs to be rethought in light of the history of the book
