SUMMARY OF DECISIONS, EDITORIAL MEETING NUMBER 28

July 15, 2009

PSD policy specialist responsible for this weekly list: L. Dechman

CLASSIFICATION

HD2359.5.A-Z

The meeting feels that there is no need to create a complex subarrangement for countries in this area. The simple breakdown by country is sufficient. The proposal was not approved.

SUBJECT HEADINGS

Subdivisions to be added to lists of free-floating subdivisions:

H 1095,

$v Readings with music

Other decisions:

Daniel Webster Statue (Washington, D.C.)

This statue should be treated as a work of art and therefore be established as a name heading. The proposal was not approved.

Latvian poetry--Readings with music

The subdivision --Readings with music is free-floating and therefore the proposal is not necessary.

Railroad trains in literature

The meeting feels that the existing heading Railroads in literature is sufficient for cataloging purposes, and addition of the proposed heading could cause confusion over which heading should be used in any particular case. A UF will be added for Railroad trains in literature on the existing heading Railroads in literature. The proposal was not approved.
