SUMMARY OF DECISIONS, EDITORIAL MEETING NUMBER 37

September 10, 2008

Present from CPSO: L. Dechman, R. Goudreau

CLASSIFICATION

DK759.J49

Works on Jews in specific countries are classed in DS by country, instead of with the history of the individual country. This work may be classed in DS134.9.S (Siberia). The proposal was not approved.

PQ6512.C2233

A literary author number for this person is already established in the schedules at PQ6512.C23. References will be added to the existing caption for the pseudonym and alternate form of name. The proposal was not approved.

SUBJECT HEADINGS

Influenca in swine

This topic is covered by the heading Swine influenza. References will be added to that heading for SIV disease (Swine influenza virus disease) and Influenza in swine. The proposal was not approved.

National socialism and humor

The work being cataloged evidently deals with German humor during the Nazi period in general, rather than humor of the Nazi movement. The appropriate combination of headings is German wit and humor--History and criticism and National socialism. The proposal was not approved.

Notre-Dame-de-France (Tapestry)

Tapestries are individual works of art, and as such should be established as name headings (see the Subject Cataloging Manual: Subject Headings, H405, Group 1, Art works, Individual). This tapestry may be established as a name/title heading following LCRI, 25.3A, Named Individual Works of Art. The proposal was not approved.

Tryweryn Valley (Wales)

The name of this valley is based on the name of the River Tryweryn which has not yet been established. The river should be established at the same time as the valley (see the Subject Cataloging Manual: Subject Headings, H800, sec. 8). The proposal may be re-submitted together with a proposal to establish the river.
