NOTE: 130 and 4XX/830 uniform titles and series
Uniform titles can be used for different purposes. They provide the means:
1. for bringing together all catalogue entries for a work when various manifestations (e.g., editions, translations) of it have appeared under various titles;
2. for identifying a work when the title by which it is known differs from the title proper of the item being catalogued;
3. for differentiating between two or more works published under identical titles proper
As of June 1, 2006, LC catalogers will consult SARs when determining if a conflict exists, when needing a heading for a subject or related work added entry, and when cataloging another manifestation requiring a uniform title (see sections below).
1) Single-part monograph or not-analyzed multipart item
a) Conflict in the database. If the main entry is the same as the main entry of another work represented by a bibliographic record or name/series authority record, do not assign a uniform title to either work simply to distinguish them, even if there are multiple editions of either work.
- GPO: no 130 for 245; if no SAR, transcribe in 490 0; record multiple 490 0 for variant titles of the series if no authority record for the series
b) Needed for subject or related work added entry. If the main entry is the same as the main entry of another work represented by a bibliographic record or name/series authority record, construct a uniform title consisting of the title proper plus a parenthetical qualifier.
c) Another manifestation requiring a uniform title. If the main entry of the original is the same as the main entry of another work represented by a bibliographic record or name/series authority record, construct a uniform title for the original consisting of the title proper plus a parenthetical qualifier.
2) Analyzed multipart item entered under a title proper
a) Conflict in the database. If the title proper of the multipart item is the same as the title proper of another work represented by a bibliographic record or a name/series authority record, construct a uniform title made up of the title proper plus a parenthetical qualifier.
3) Analyzed multipart item entered under a name heading
a) Conflict in the database. If that name heading/title proper of the multipart item is the same as the name heading/title proper of another work represented by a bibliographic record or a name/series authority record, construct a uniform title made up of the title proper plus a parenthetical qualifier.
4) Collective uniform title headings "Works" and "Selections": NAR and SAR for different multipart items.
PCC practice: To break the conflict between the headings created per LCRIs for rules 25.8 and 25.9, add a brief form of the publisher's name in subfield $s of the series authority record (even if that means revising a heading in an existing record). If there is still a conflict, add a parenthetical qualifier at the end of subfield $s.
Series-like phrase
PCC practice:
1) Entry under title. Construct a uniform title made up of the phrase plus a parenthetical qualifier for any phrase entered under title if the phrase is identical to the title proper of a serial/series found in the catalog in a bibliographic record or the title proper in the heading of a series authority record for a series, multipart item, or serial. Follow the guidelines for adding a qualifier to a serial/series title (above).
