- Summary:
-
This filing manual was developed to address certain problems unique to music catalog filing. Prior to development of the manual, a thorough study of the existing arrangement in the Northern Illinois University Music Library's catalog was undertaken and staff members were interviewed to determine the extent of "unwritten" rules, if any existed. The rules in this document were designed to conform as closely as possible to existing filing practice in the Music Library; the new elements are principally more detailed explanations of the basic rules, and many new rules governing problematic situations such as uniform titles are introduced. The general emphasis of these rules is literal; the major exception is the treatment of subject headings, in which a traditional hierarchical approach is applied. There are also special rules to allow interfiling of some AACR1 (Anglo American Cataloging rules, 1st edition) and AACR2 (Anglo American Cataloging Rules, 2nd edition) uniform titles. There are no rules governing the filing of printed versus recorded manifestations of music or works by authors versus works about authors. Many of the examples illustrating the rules were contrived especially for this manual, and do not necessarily represent valid AACR2 headings or Library of Congress (LC) subject headings. (THC)
