Talking about creators: One thing I find very puzzling is the treatment
of collections in a museum. Maybe I only have these problems because the
German rules for main entry for corporate bodies are completely
different from the Anglo-American tradition. So, perhaps you can help me
here.

"As told to" is a common formulation on books from prominent people. The
person the story was told to is kind of like a ghostwriter, except their
identity is not hidden. I would definitely consider them a creator, but it's
hard to tell from the title page how extensive their role was. This is

For Kopolen we would use:

Postscriptum: I just found some more information on the book, and it

So probably it is really the best thing to treat them both as creators

I haven't seen the book, so I'm not certain about the exact nature of
Libby Kopolen's contribution. Does she act like some sort of
interviewer, asking questions? Then I would agree that she should be
seen as another author.
But if she's really only the person the story is told to, then I find

Thanks for your reply. My thought is that the purpose of a modification of
punctuations included in a title is to avoid a misunderstanding or
confusion. So it will help users to differentiate a resource from others,
and then make a selection.

I've just reread the principle of differentiation (0.4.3.1), asking

I sent this email to the pcc list almost three hours ago and it hasn't
distributed. Maybe it got "sequestered"??
Anyways, if anyone has a good answer to my question below I'd appreciate it.

I am not sure if we can use a term: teller. I got a similar situation. A
book is told by A, translated by B, and proofread by C. There might be a
better term. I feel that my vocabulary is a kind of limited in this regard.
Thanks,

I would use author for both the teller and the person told to, since
they both make creator-level contributions to a work that is primarily
textual in content.
The examples in 19.2.1.3 for two or more entities responsible for the
creation of the work performing different roles show that both shoul
What is the proper term for the person named in "text as told to..."?
I've looked through the first draft and the MARC list and can't find
anything appropriate.
If it helps, the title page (in all caps in the book) reads as follows:
The house
