I had some trouble posting to this list yesterday, and others have
replied to Deborah's question. However, there are some points here
that have not already been made.<br>
<br>
<meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
http-equiv="Content-Type">
AACR's "uniform title" is now the "preferred title of the work"; the
preferred title of the work is part of the authorized access point
for either a work or an expression. The preferred title of the work
is a core element in RDA. This should mean that uniform titles will
be widely (even universally) included in the authorized access point
for the work.<br>
<br>
But there is room for flexible application. What is not clear is
whether the preferred title will need to be recorded separately from
the title proper when they are the same (this should sound
familiar!). <br>
<br>
There is also some uncertainty about the authorized access point for
the expression; our current uniform titles for expressions often
fail to identify a specific expression (e.g., by identifying only
the language of a translation, not the particular translation) and
we do not normally identify the expression of the work in its
original language. This may change -- or it may stay the same. <br>
<br>
Bob might be able to say whether the LC Policy Statements for the
test address any of these issues. I confess that I haven't
explored them yet.<br>
