• LC: Plus first illustrator of resources intended for children

• NLNZ: Plus other creators, issuing bodies, editors, translators and …

NLNZ criteria for recording relationships

• User needs

• Prominence of information

• NZ significance of entity

• Importance of entity to resource

• Sustainability

Recording relationships to persons families corporate bodies

• Record as authorized access points • MARC 1XX or MARC 7XX

• Add relationship designators • RDA Appendix I • $e of 1XX and 7XX field• Optional • Not a closed list• Not part of name authority records or

Persons/families/bodies related to manifestations (21.0, Appendix I.4)

• Producers• Publishers (e.g. broadcasters)• Manufacturers (e.g. engravers, printers)• Distributors (e.g. film distributor)

Examples: Relationships to manifestations

264 #1 $a Bethesda : $b NIH, $c 2008.710 2# $a National Institutes of Health (U.S.), $e broadcaster.

“Publisher” isn’t listed as an RDA relationship designator because that relationship is an attribute of the manifestation and is already recorded as a core element.

35

Relationships to items (ch. 22)
