This handbook is a compilation of examples with
explanations for creating citations for sources of information in the authority
record. It does not encompass establishing the heading itself; only how to
cite the sources in which information necessary to create the heading was
found. The examples are not to be regarded as "rules." The fields that are
affected are:
670: Source data found: includes information about the name or title
represented in the 1XX field, including facts that contribute to the
identification of the heading and that justify the choice of the form used
as the 1XX heading and references to it.
667: Non-public general note: gives information of permanent value
and general interest that is not necessarily taken from the item being cataloged.
675: Source data not found: lists consulted sources in which information
about the 1XX heading might be expected to be found, but was not.
Generally, only the NAR number, 1XX field, and 670 field appropriate to the
example are included, even if the authority record has cross references and
multiple 670 fields. When needed to illustrate a point, cross references
and multiple 670 fields are included.
This handbook was compiled in 1992, with the assistance of Jeffrey Earnest,
and revised in 1994. Several people's contributions need to be acknowledged.
Ralph Papakhian and Sue Stancu at Indiana University, Linda Barnhart at
University of California, San Diego, Mark Scharff at Washington University
in St. Louis, and Harry Price and the late Virginia Gifford at the Library
of Congress, contributed and commented on the first and revised drafts. Jennifer
Bowen and Laura Snyder at the Eastman School of Music, Sibley Music Library,
provided examples for the first version. It was completely revised in 1998 and continues to be updated as needed.
The NACO Music Project's (NMP) goal is the cooperative contribution of music
name and name/uniform title authority records to the LC Name Authority File
as part of the national NACO project. All music headings should be contributed
as part of the NACO Music Project. NMP is administered through a funnel
configuration, coordinated by Ralph Papakhian at the Indiana University Music
Library. Utilizing e-mail, the NMP coordinator and independent NMP participants
review the headings of new participants until they become independent. Those
independent participants then review new participants' headings until they
too become independent. Independent status is defined as having the authority
to contribute name and/or name/uniform title authority records without review.
A participant can become independent in stages, with names first, then
name/uniform titles, or both at once. Although participation in NMP is granted
to the combined individual and institution, independent status for an NMP
participant is achieved through the NMP review and testing process, not through
the status of the home institution.
The project is sponsored by the Music OCLC Users Group (MOUG), with an Advisory
Committee consisting of the NMP Coordinator, an OCLC user representative,
and a MOUG Board representative. NMP is not limited to libraries whose primary
working relationship is with OCLC. Participants may use either OCLC or have
authorization to input and edit directly into the Library of Congress database,
MUMS.
NMP has established a number of ways of training and communicating with its
members. First, this handbook provides instructions for formulating the 670
fields in the authority record. Second, NMP has a LISTSERV list used for
various purposes: to ask general questions concerning establishing a heading
or citing information in the authority record, to make announcements of interest
to all NMP participants, and to announce new developments or revised
documentation. Third, during the annual MOUG meeting, which usually precedes
the annual Music Library Association meeting, the NMP participants meet to
discuss new developments and air concerns.
Currently, the project comprises more than 60 music libraries or collections
in various stages of training, at university, college, conservatory, and
public libraries. New libraries can be added in several different ways:

The handbook does not replace any other related
documents, such as Z1, the LC Rule Interpretations, the Music Cataloging
Decisions, etc. It is not an official publication of NACO, LC, or COOPCAT.
It is revised following the release of any related Library of Congress revisions.
The handbook is meant to be an aid to creating authority records, and not
necessarily to be considered written in stone. Current changes in LC
documentation, such as Z1, now allow for considerable cataloger judgment
in many areas of the authority record.

When establishing headings for persons, corporate bodies, or name/title combinations, the first 670 field should represent the work being cataloged. If the item used to establish the heading is not a book, score, or serial, use an abbreviated general material designator in brackets before the date, e.g. [SR], [VR], [MI].
For personal name headings, use the last name
and initials (with no spaces) for forenames for the person considered the
main entry for that work.

When the main entry is a forename with subfield

For corporate name headings, give the heading
abbreviated as much as possible within the limits of intelligibility when
the corporate body is considered the main entry for that work:

When the person or corporate body in the heading
is not the main entry for the work being cited, use either person/body followed
by a title or a title only. If the work is entered under a personal or corporate
heading, give the heading abbreviated as much as possible within the limits
of intelligibility. Use initials (with no spaces) for forenames of authors
entered under surname.
Main entry is the composer:

These are some of the most commonly-used references
and one or two standard ways of citing them in 670 fields. When establishing
name/title headings, check existing authority records for similar name/title
headings for that composers. Often, LC uses a brief citation, such as "Schmieder,
2. Ausg." and using this abbreviated form can save time and keystrokes.

There are two instances of prescribed punctuation.
Before citing a location within a source, use a colon before the indication
of location (e.g.: New Grove: b v. 16, p. 742) In citing headings
found in bibliographic sources, specific punctuation is prescribed: [Source]
b (hdg.: [data])
This is a straight forward example of citing an encyclopedia in which the
entries are arranged alphabetically:
nr9140037
| 100
1 Lemlin, Lorenz, d b. ca. 1495 670 New Grove b (Lemlin (Lemblin, Lemlein), Lorenz; b. ca. 1495, Eichstätt, d. after 1549) |
Both the volume and page of New Grove are cited
because the entry for Johann Ernst Bach is included in the article on the
entire Bach family, not under Bach, Johann Ernst. The name is cited in direct
rather than inverted order, as that is how it appears in the source:
no9014009
| 100
1 Bach, Johann Ernst, d 1722-1777 670 New Grove: b v. 1, p. 863 (Johann Ernst Bach; b. Jan. 30, 1722, Eisenach; d. Sept. 1, 1777, Eisenach) |
Another form that seems to be accepted is:
| 670 New Grove b (under Bach: Johann Ernst Bach... ) |
In this citation also, the name is also cited
in directed order.
This form of citation is also useful for citing information from articles
not about the person or corporate body being established:
| 670 New Grove b (under Chicago: Opera of Chicago... ) |
The volume and page of New Grove American are
cited because the entry is under an entry for the entire family:
nr9145292
| 100
1 Damrosch, Frank, d 1859-1937 670 New Grove dict. of Amer. mus.: b v. 1, p. 565 (Frank (Heino) Damrosch; b. June 22, 1859, Breslau, Germany (now Wroclaw, Poland), d. Oct. 22, 1937, New York; conductor and teacher; came to New York in 1871) |
Indicate edition if other than the first:
no9012924
| 100
1 Cassler, G. Winston q (Glenn Winston), d 1906- 670 Anderson, E.R. Contemporary Amer. composers, 2nd ed. b (Cassler, G. Winston; b. Sept. 3, 1906, Moundridge, Kans.) |

1 Hellmesberger, Joseph, d 1855-1907 670 MGG: b v. 6, column 113 (Hellmesberger, Söhne Josephs: Joseph; b. Apr. 9, 1855, d. Apr. 26, 1907, Wien) |
There are two parts to this source, so the Teil
must be indicated:
nr9145304
| 100
1 Rellstab, Johann Friedrich, d 1759-1813 670 Altmann, W. Kurzgefasstes Tonkünstler-Lexikon, 15. Aufl.: b 1. T. (Rellstab, Friedr.; b. Feb. 27, 1759, Berlin, d. Aug. 19, 1813, Berlin) |
In this case, the page was also cited because
the information was in an entry for the entire family:
nr924795
| 100
1 Schuberth, Carl, d 1811-1863 670 Altmann, W. Kurzgefasstes Tonkünstler-Lexikon, 15. Aufl.: b 1. T., p. 562 (Schubert, Karl; b. Nov. 25, 1811, Magdeburg, d. July 22, 1863, Zurich) |
When citing information from this set (Compositores
de América), cite only the volume when the articles are in alphabetical
order by composer in that volume. In some early volumes entries are not in
alphabetical order, so for these, page numbers would also have to be given,
as in the next example:
nr9135296
| 100
1 Broque, Alfonso, d 1876-1946. t Cantos
uruguayos 670 Compositores de América: b v. 6 (Tres cantos uruguayos) |
In volume three of this set, the composers are
not given in alphabetical order, thus the page must be cited as well:
no883169
| 100
1 Villa-Lobos, Heitor. t Carnaval das criancas. p

This is cited from an LC card, as a bibliographic
source rather than as a reference source. Usage is cited because it is different
from the heading found in the source:
nr9212642
| 100
1 Pickett, A. G. q (Andrew G.) 670 LCCN 59-61290 b (hdg.: Pickett, Andrew G.; usage: A.G. Pickett) |
NUC pre-56 cited as a bibliographic source rather
than as a reference source, hence the construction (hdg.:

)
nr916899
| 100
1 Rickaby, Franz, d d. 1925 670 NUC pre-56 b (hdg.: Rickaby, Franz Lee, d. 1925; usage: Franz Rickaby) |
It could also have been cited as a reference source. In this case, however, the usage (without the middle name) could not have been indicated:
| 670 NUC pre-56 b (Rickaby, Franz Lee, d. 1925) |
The New York Public catalog cited as a bibliographic
source rather than as a reference source. Also an example of multiple usage
in one source:
nr9131821
| 100

When citing the date of search in a database,
cite the month (abbreviated according to AACR2, App. B), day, and year, in
any form (e.g. Mar. 6, 1992 or 6 Mar. 1992) as long is cited in full:
nr9217472

Pedro 670 LC in RLIN, May 6, 1992 b (hdg.: Falla, Manuel de, 1876-1946. Retablo de Maese Pedro) |
Cite only the part pertaining to the heading
in the 100 field of the authority record being established. The actual title
portion heading in the LC record was:
t Pièces, m organ n (1862). p Grande
pièce symphonique. p Allegro non troppo e maestoso.
nr9138558
| 100
1 Franck, César, d 1822-1890. t Pièces,

The LC record has a typographical error. The
heading was: Galpin, Francis Williams, 1858-1945. Errors such as this
should be cited in the correct form, and notification of the error should
be sent to LC.
nr9215778

1 Galpin, Francis W. q (Francis William), d
1858-1945 670 LC in RLIN, May 4, 1992 b (hdg.: Galpin, Francis William, 1858-1945; usage: Francis W. Galpin) |
Citing UK MARC records:
The date of birth was found in a UKM record. It could not be verified elsewhere
and was needed to resolve a conflict.
From Richard Hunter at LC: "I have recorded two decisions from Desc Pol (1987
and 1988): one to the effect that UKM records should be treated like member
contributed records in OCLC, the other to the effect that there was no problem
with citing a specific heading in the "Serial Record way (see example at
the bottom of DCM Z1, p. 29), which would end up with a citation like "UK
MARC xxxxxxx." While the variation you ask about is a variation, I do not
see a problem with it. Of course it could also be cited as 'OCLC (followed
by date).'"
Citing dates from an order slip:
MCD 22.17: When an item being cataloged is accompanied by a dealer's order
slip that gives a date for the composer, and the date does not appear in
the item itself and has not otherwise come to light, record the date in the
composer's name authority record in the 670 "Sources found" field for the
item being cataloged, giving "Harrassowitz slip," [Blackwell slip, etc.]
as the location. Do not include in the heading for a composer a date whose
only source is a dealer's slip, unless the date is needed to resolve a conflict
and an unsuccessful attempt has been made to find confirmation of the date
in reference sources.

[its] use."
NMP encourages the use of the GMD. If you choose to use it, include the GMD
in abbreviated form: [SR]. Do not precede or follow it with any punctuation.
Use "label" at all times, even if the information appears on both sides of
an LP or on each CD in a multi-disc set. For CDs, which have no label per
se, consider the information appearing on the disc itself to be the "label."

The following examples illustrate how the NACO
Music Project has interpreted LC's guidelines in the past. Harry Price has
said, "As long as it's clear where the information comes from, specific wording
doesn't need to be prescribed." Options for citing locations other than the
sound disc itself are "notes," "container," "container notes," "liner notes,"
"insert," and "program." None are prescribed.
Use "container" for information such as performer or title statements taken
from the front, back, or spine of the container. For CDs, consider any
information on the insert that can be seen through the jewel case to be on
the container.

Use "insert" for notes that are physically separable
and inserted into a single or multiple LP container, or single or multiple
CD jewel box. Generally do not indicate page numbers in the insert, unless
the insert is extensive:

There is no prescribed manner of citing information. For consistency's sake, NMP encourages the following. Transcribe name and/or title information as it appears in the reference source. Date, place and other data can be translated, summarized, and abbreviated. Use standard abbreviations and punctuation for date information taken from reference sources, e.g. b., d., fl., ca., bapt. Using semi-colons to separate the elements of name, date/place, and other information, follow this standard form:
In citing dates, you may use either day, month,
year or month, day, year, so long as the AACR2 abbreviation for the month
is used and the year is stated in full: Feb. 2, 1997.

With headings for editors or arrangers of scores,
NMP now has the option of indicating function (editor, arranger, etc.) of
the person in subfield b of 670.

to cite the name this way: (Leo Kappel; editor)

If the name cited is not in the nominative case,
do not amplify the citation to "explain" this, though ellipses may be used
to show that surrounding words have been omitted. They indicate that words
preceding the name cause the name not to be in the nominative. The title

the person is singing. At Indiana, the designation "singer" is used only
when neither the voice range nor the role is known.
Return to top
The first 670 field is always for the item in
hand. For titles, include only one 670 field, for the item in hand, unless
information from another source provides helpful information not found on
the item in hand. If the form used in the 1XX field is not generated from
or does not appear on the item cited in the first 670, include a second 670
field citing the source for the form of title used in the heading. If references
are generated from other forms found on the item in hand, include that
information in the 670. When references are taken from other items or reference
sources, do not cite the sources from which the references are taken, unless
the sources provide helpful information not found on the item in hand. Additional
670 fields for reference sources considered necessary to clarify the title
may also be added.
The title cited in subfield a of the 670 is not repeated in subfield b because
no additional information or other forms of the title to justify the chosen
uniform title were found on the item. The second 670 was added since the
uniform title was not established from the item in hand.

This is an exception to the practice of not
repeating the title proper unless recording other forms of the title. Normally,
the subtitle information would not be required in this 670, and so there
would be no subfield b at all. However, the references from Petites pièces
and Piccoli pezzi need the opus number in order to distinguish them from
his Petites pièces and Piccoli pezzi op. 3. The subtitle was given

Citing a web site by URL
Citing a location within a web site:
Grove music online |
academic sites | commercial
sites | online journals and periodicals |
other examples
Citing information found:
citing variant forms |
citing pages in parallel language versions
| other examples
Generally, cite WWW pages by giving the name
of the page and the date it was consulted. The date is important, since web
page contents can change from day to day. When citing the URL, follow the
instructions given in the LC Descriptive Cataloging Manual (DCM) Section
Z1, explained below.
The following construction is generally used to cite web pages:
" WWW
site, [date of search] b ([data])"
Note: It is not
necessary to include the word "accessed" or the phrase "viewed on" before the
date of search.
If the information is found on a subpage, cite the location:
" WWW
site, [date of search] :b [location] ([data])"
Adding "WWW site" to a citation for a resource that has the word "online"
in its title or is known to be available only on the Web is unnecessary.
However, using "WWW site"
( WWW
site ...) is generally preferred to "WWW page," "home page," or "homepage." Examples using this form, reflecting past practice, appear in this document.

Citing Google
books
There is no consensus about citing books viewed via Google books. A conversation
via the PCC list considered whether or not it was even necessary to indicate
that the book was not in hand but was viewed online.
This format, citing Google books first and then the book, has been used:
