Form of name

  • If a name has a record in the LC Authority File, use that heading.
  • When creating headings for a name with no authority record, use the fullest known form of name, even if this is not needed to differentiate the heading. 
  • Otherwise, follow RDA rules: use active dates only to differentiate a heading and capitalize articles in names in languages other than English according to rules for that language.

Family names

  • Use the form of name appearing in the material, following RDA rules. 
  • If the name has a different spelling in the LCSH, use that heading in a 600 field.

Example:

100 3_ ‡a Griggs (Family)

245 10 ‡a Griggs family papers, ‡f 1775-1924.
