CLASSIFICATION
BX8061.I68
The name authority associated with this number, Indiana Synod of the United Lutheran Church in America, is not established in the name authority file. This proposal may be resubmitted once that record has been added.
N3690.I2R497
The note at the top of the hierarchy of N510-3990 says “For histories, treatises, catalogs, etc. of special collections prefer classification by medium, subject, period, or nationality.” The work should be cataloged with the artist at NB753.S53. This proposal was not necessary.
N6538.L58
The number should have been a table proposal in table N5 at 38.L58. A substitute proposal was made and approved on this list. The proposal was not approved.
SUBJECT HEADINGS
Fishes--Infections--Monitoring
The heading was deemed unnecessary because the content of the work being cataloged did not support the proposal. The proposal was not approved.
Cullasaja River (N.C.)
The proposal was missing variant names of the river from the GNIS database. The proposal may be resubmitted.
Detective and mystery stories, Serbian
The proposal lacks information in English that explains the relationship of the work to the heading being proposed. The proposal may be resubmitted.
Dunedin sound (Music)
When a type of music that has a location based name is proposed (such as Nashville), there must be a defining characteristic and genre that makes the music recognizable. As Dunedin soundis covered by multiple genres of music and therefore has no distinct style, it cannot be considered as a subject heading. The proposal was not approved.
First contact between Europeans and indigenous peoples
The heading was revised with the new heading being First contact (Anthropology) and the subdivision --First contact with other peoples replacing --First contact with Europeans. The proposal was not approved.
Hercules, Pillars of (Gibraltar and North Africa) ; Rocks--Africa, North ; Rocks--Gibraltar
These headings were deemed unnecessary because it appears that the heading Hercules, Pillars of (Gibraltar and North Africa) was to have been created for the hierarchy, and the established instructions in H 690 discourage the creation of a geographical heading for this purpose. The proposals were not approved.
Kanten family
The proposal lacks the location of the family as is required in H 1631. The proposal may be resubmitted.
Kokuritsu Kyōgijō (Tokyo, Japan)
Due to the fact that stadiums are established in the subject file as per instruction sheet H 405 the proposal to replace this subject heading with a name authority record was not approved.
Micheldever Station (Micheldever Station, England)
The village of Micheldever Station must be established in the name authority file before it can be used as a qualifier the proposal for the train station can be approved. The proposal may be resubmitted.
Raḳ (The Hebrew particle) ; Akh (The Hebrew particle)
The proposals lack information in English that explains the relationship of the work to the headings being proposed. The proposals may be resubmitted.
Science fiction, Middle Eastern
H 1828 instructs catalogers to assign the qualifier Middle Eastern only in works representing more than one language spoken in the Middle East, not Arabic alone. The citation for the work being cataloged does not support this instruction and the proposal may be resubmitted if evidence of this is supplied.
Sneaker industry
The citation for the work being cataloged lacked enough information to support the establishment of the subject heading. The proposal may be resubmitted.
Sonnets, Welsh
The proposal lacks English in the citation for the work being cataloged. The proposal may be resubmitted.
Tteokbokki
The proposal lacks English in the citation for the work being cataloged. The proposal may be resubmitted.
GENRE/FORM TERMS
Dunedin sound (Music)
Dunedin sound describes multiple genres of music that were created in one location rather than a single genre of music. The proposal was not approved.
