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:

• Music catalogers at newly-trained NACO institutions ask to participate;
• Music catalogers at libraries not in the NACO program apply in response to a call for applications;
• Music catalogers at an NMP library move to a new position, and request to continue their NMP participation there.

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.

Citing main entry in the 670

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 c following it, include the information in subfield c in the 670 field:

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:
nr9416247

110 2   Boston Baroque Ensemble 670      Boston Baroque Ensemble. Dinner music of the 1740's [SR] 1966: ‡b label (Boston Baroque Ensemble)

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 a print source is arranged alphabetically, do not cite page number. When an entry appears in a location other than where it would be found alphabetically, cite volume and/or page number, using AACR2 abbreviations. When citing a location within a source, use a colon before the indication of location, e.g. [Title of source]: ‡b p. 35 [data]

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.

When a print source is arranged alphabetically, do not cite page number. When an entry appears in a location other than where it would be found alphabetically, cite volume and/or page number, using AACR2 abbreviations.

There are two instances of prescribed punctuation. When citing a location within a source, use a colon before the indication of location (e.g.: New Grove: ‡b v. 16, p. 742). When 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:

100 1   Bach, Johann Sebastian, ‡d 1685-1750. ‡t Wir Christenleut, ‡n BWV 710 670      Schmieder, 2. Ausg. ‡b (690-713a, Choralbearbeitungen in der Kirnergerschen Sammlung. 710, Wir Christenleut)

100 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 Guizos do dominozinho 670      Compositores de América: ‡b v. 3, p. 24 (Carnaval das criancas brasileiras. 3, Os guizos do dominozinho)

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.:             ; usage:            )
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 1   Lahoz, F. ‡q (Florencio), ‡d 1815-1868 670      NYPL. Dict. cat. of the mus. coll., 2nd ed. ‡b (hdg.: Lahoz, Florencio, 1815-1868; usage: F. Lahoz; Florencio Lahoz)

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

100 1   Falla, Manuel de, ‡d 1876-1946. ‡t Retablo de Maese 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, ‡m organ ‡n (1862). ‡p Grande pièce symphonique 670      LC in RLIN, Oct. 22, 1991 ‡b (hdg.: Franck, César, 1822-1890. Pièces, organ (1862). Grande pièce symphonique)

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

100 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.

Sound recordings

"The new Z1 deliberately does not mention the use of GMDs as LC was asked to discontinue this practice ... LC does not require catalogers to include the GMD nor has it made any restrictions on [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:

When the cataloger listens to a recording to determine an element of the uniform title, that is indicated in the 670 field. LC has used "audition" to indicate this:

Citing information found in the reference source

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.

Performing groups:

Include information on the foundation date, place of foundation, performers' names and instruments, and anything else that might be used to distinguish the performing group from another with the same name. LC has said that including information such as this is optional; NMP encourages such additions.

Citing information from bibliographic records

Names

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.

The title page has "Herausgegeben von Leo Kappel." An option would have been to cite the name this way: (Leo Kappel; editor)
nr9234402

100 1   Kappel, Leo 670      Burger, J. 24 Trompetenduette, c1991: ‡b t.p. (Leo Kappel)

Even though the name appears on the title page as "Pia und Pino Mlakar" and on the spine as "P. und P. Mlakar," record only the name being established:
nr9336172

100 1   Mlakar, Pia 670      Mlakar, P. Unsterblicher Theatertanz, c1992- : ‡b v. 1, t.p. (Pia Mlakar) spine (P. Mlakar)

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 page has "sostavlanie i pedagogicheskaia redaktsiia Bronislavy Rozengauz."
nr9144709

A person's name used in the title of a book is considered to be usage and does not need to be repeated in subfield b if it is the only significant usage in the item.

100 1   Moreschi, Alessandro, ‡d 1858-1922 670      Buning, R.A. Alessandro Moreschi and the castrato voice, 1990.

Consider a person's name used in the title of a sound recording to be usage and do not repeat it in subfield b unless recording other information.
nr9229841

100 1   Rider, Rhonda 670      Rider, R. Rhonda Rider, violoncello [SR] p1988.

When a person's name is used in the title of a sound recording and is considered usage, it should be repeated in subfield b only when subfield b is being used to record additional information:
nr9125373

For headings for performers on sound recordings, indicate the instrument, vocal range, etc. in subfield b. LC has said that including information such as this is optional; NMP encourages such additions.
nr9217448

100 1   Seiler, Erich 670      Rosbaud, H. Hans Rosbaud conducts three masterpieces of 20th century [SR] p1990: ‡b container (Erich Seiler, percussion)

100 1    Hülschoff, Cordula 670       Mozart, W.A. Klavierkonzert D-Dur, KV 451 [SR] 1983?: ‡b container (Cordula Hülschoff, flute)

Singers with no designation of vocal range:

LC used to include a 678 field with the function, such as "Singer." They no longer use this field, although it is still found in older authority records. There are two options now.

nr9223903

100 1   Kitchen, Linda 670      Meyerbeer, G. Il crociato in Egitto [SR] 1991: ‡b label (Linda Kitchen) container (sings role of Dinorah)

OR

670      Meyerbeer, G. Il crociato in Egitto [SR] 1991: ‡b label (Linda Kitchen; singer)

LC suggests the latter option when it is obvious the person is singing. At Indiana, the designation "singer" is used only when neither the voice range nor the role is known.

Title information

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.

The title cited in subfield a of the 670 is repeated in subfield b The reference was generated from a form found later in the item. Since additional information following the title proper was recorded, it was necessary to repeat the title proper in subfield b.

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 in the 670 in order to identify this set as op. 11:

Citing Internet resources

Citing a web site by name: Grove music online | Wikipedia | Citing Google books | academic sites | other examples | Citing multiple web sites | online library catalogs | genealogy and death indexes
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

Citing a web site by name

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.

When adding information to an authority record that cites Grove music online (or any Internet source), either add a second 670 field:

Wikipedia is a source that is known to be available only on the Web, and thus using "WWW site" in a citation for it is unnecessary.

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:
670 Google book search, [date of search]: ‡b [title proper of book], [date of publication]: p. ([data])

• If an unmodified MDAR contains an erroneous heading, correct the heading and notify the LC NACO-Music liaison at nacomus@loc.gov. Include the LCCNs of all records, including the LCCN of the bib record with the error, which is included in the 670 of the MDAR.
• If an MDAR duplicates a pre-existing NAR or another MDAR, report the LCCNs of both records to the LC NACO-Music liaison at nacomus@loc.gov.

Procedures for removing a person from an undifferentiated name heading

You may alter the NAR for the undifferentiated heading as necessary. In some cases, you will be changing the undifferentiated heading into a "differentiated" one. In other cases, the heading will remain undifferentiated, but you will delete information relative to someone who is now differentiated. So, for example, if a heading represents four different people and you want to remove the violinist from among them (either by providing a date or by utilizing the ‡c qualifier for violinist), then simply delete the fields in the NAR related to the violinist. Delete any information pertaining to the musician from the 675 note, if it is possible to determine which sources apply to the musician. If the heading represents only two people, and you are going to differentiate them, then you would delete the 670s from the existing heading and change the fixed field coding as necessary while also making the new NAR. In both situations, existing DLC/DLC bib records could be involved, so you must search for those and report them for BFM.

If a library is not yet independent, any change along the lines described above would be reported to the coordinator before contribution. Once independent, the library can make the necessary changes to the NARs and then report the change to LC at the following e-mail address: nacomus@loc.gov.

New procedure as of July 23, 2001 as per the revision of DCM Z1 (yellow pages):

When removing a name from an undifferentiated name record to create a new and unique record, include a 667 field saying "Formerly on undifferentiated name record:" and supply the LCCN of the record from which it was removed.

To facilitate searching LCCNs in 667 fields in OCLC, format the LCCN following these guidelines from OCLC:
° Include the prefix (1 or 2 characters), the year portion (2 or 4 digits), and control number, with no hyphen.
° Add spaces following the prefix and preceding the year as explained here:

type of prefix:	type of year:	add spaces?	examples
1 character prefix ("n") 1 character prefix ("n") 2 character prefix ("nb," "no," "nr") 2 character prefix ("nb," "no," "nr")	2 digit year      4 digit year 2 digit year 4 digit year	add 2 spaces     add 1 space add 1 space add no spaces	n_ _85204041 n_2005035179 nr_99012578 no2007016671
