<H2> Guidelines for Establishing Certain Names Associated with Printers </H2>
<HR>
<h6>Version: 17 December 2001</h6>
<dd>
Content of these guidelines were approved by the Library of Congress Cataloging
Policy and Support Office for inclusion in the <i>Library of Congress Rule
Interpretations </i>3 January 2002, per Barbara Tillett, It was adopted
by the Bibliographic Standards Committee at the 1999 midwinter meeting.
Details of the discussion <a href="http://www.lib.byu.edu/~catalog/people/rlm/bsc/heirsoftable.htm">available</a>.</dd>
</dl>
<p><br>For purposes of this guideline, the word "printer" includes "publisher,"
"bookseller," "associated name," etc.
<p>Names should be established in the form found in modern reference sources
in a person's native language, when that varies from the chief source of
information in the item in hand, according to the existing principle for
form of pre-1801 names (LCRI 22.1B "Authors") and persons not known
primarily as an author (AACR2 22.1B). If a corporate name is not clearly
indicative of a corporate body, add the qualifier "Printer," "Bookseller,"
"Firm," etc. as appropriate (cf. LCRI 24.4B). Note that these headings
when actually used in bibliographic records will usually have an appropriate
relator term or code added. Make see references from unused variant forms,
and see also references from
<br>the established forms of related persons or corporate bodies.
<p>Establish a firm as a corporate body, in direct order.
<blockquote>"Ex Officina Elzeviriana" as "Officina Elzeviriana"</blockquote>
<blockquote>"Viduae & haeredum Ioannis Stelsii" as "Vidua & Haeredes
Ioannis Stelsii"<br>
<i>Note: In this type of situation "Ioannis Stelsii" must for grammatical
reasons remain in the genitive</i></blockquote>
<h4>
Heirs, Assigns, Estate</h4>
Consider phrases denoting the heirs or estate of a printer to be a corporate
body. Establish in direct order in the nominative case with a "see also"
reference from the established form of the printer's name.

<h4>
Widows</h4>
A. If named on the piece in hand or from reference sources (cf. LCRI 22.1B),
but also called the widow of a printer, establish under her own name. Make
a cross reference with "$cwidow of" following the name of the printer:
<p><b><font size=-1>Source: Apud viduam Thielmanni Kerver</font></b>
<br><b><font size=-1>Source: colophon (Yolanda Bonhomme), t.p. (device

its "Vidua " ref., corrected
<br>above)
<p>B. If identified only as the widow of a printer, establish the heading
as a phrase. Make a cross reference with "$cwidow of" following the name
of the printer:

printer:

<p>B. In the absence of clear evidence that the relationship is a formal
or legal partnership, do not establish as a corporate body. Rather,
establish the names of the various persons, and any related corporate body,
separately. On a specific bibliographic record, make one or more added
entries, as indicated in the imprint and colophon of the work in hand.
