font-family:Arial'>As many of you are, we are an RLIN library working on the
transition to OCLC. We've taped our records to OCLC for years but never
cataloged in the system. In order to continue our PCC BIBCO work we recently
applied for and were granted the appropriate cataloging enhance statuses.
However there was a small glitch. OCLC wanted a set of sample records, and I
chose a variety of BYU original records that were already in OCLC through our
tapeloading. This sample included a few of my own cataloging records. Although
we were given the enhance status we needed, a few of the records were returned
to me with "problems" circled in red. And these "problems"
were all on my records and they were all instances where I had included relator
terms with added entries :-( </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The OCLC examiners had two issues: (1) LCRI 21.0D supposedly
forbids the use of relator terms, and (2) AACR2 only allows relators to be used
with personal names, not corporate bodies.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Now the answer to (1) seems fairly straightforward to
me--LCRI 21.0D is explicitly labelled "LC Practice", meaning it need
not apply outside LC (and as a matter of fact I happen to know that the LC
Practice label was added specifically so that BIBCO catalogers could use
relator terms). </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The answer to (2) is a little more tricky--frankly I had
never dreamed that we couldn't use "$e printer" or "$e
publisher" after a corporate body (e.g. Arion Press, $e printer or Book
Club of California, $e publisher), but now that it has been pointed out to me
21.0D does in fact say "In the cases noted below, add [a] ... designation
of function to an added entry for <em><i><font face=Arial><span
style='font-family:Arial'>a person</span></font></i></em>". (MARC
documentation certainly allows for use of relators terms in 710 fields.) I
was told by someone at LC that it had been recently proposed to JSC to correct
this and add corporate bodies to the rule but it had been withdrawn pending
RDA, but I don't remember anything about such a proposal.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

font-family:Arial'>As the new kid on the block I don't really want to get a
reputation for belligerency (and in fact I really don't WANT to be
belligerent!) but I do want to clarify this and so I intend to bring it up with
the person who examined our records, but after I've consulted you folks. It
does seem to me that relator terms add quite a bit of value to entries,
especially considering FRBR's emphasis on clarifying the relationships between
entities (e.g. between persons or corporate bodies and works, expressions,
manifestations, or items). They are also essential to the indexing in our
catalog. I am talking about relator <em><i><font face=Arial><span
style='font-family:Arial'>terms</span></font></i></em>, not codes, by the way.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I'd be interested in your thoughts, on two fronts: (1) I
have been assuming that most of the rare cataloging community does use relator
terms in their work, but I could be wrong--so I'd be interested in hearing what
your practice is (including do you use them with corporate bodies, and does
your library use them outside special collections cataloging); and (2) those
of you who are experienced OCLC catalogers, including enhance libraries,
do you use them in OCLC master records? I suppose one could enhance or create
the master record and then add relators to the local record but that does seem
a bit a shame to me ...</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
