While standardization of headings has been treated extensively in many publications, the choice of access points for online catalogs has not been reviewed in depth in cataloguing rules. I propose a set of logical criteria for choosing author access points for monographs in Spanish; the proposed modifications are aimed at simplifying the Reglas de Catalogacion Espanola (Spanish Cataloguing Rules), facilitating the decision process, and increasing the number of access points in computerized bibliographic records. Specifically, I suggest (1) abolishing the principles that underlie the rules for main entry headings and the rule of three, (2) eliminating a priori conditions for identifying authors of an item, (3) establishing a taxonomy of responsibility functions associated with an item, and (4) categorizing authors on the basis of their relevance for retrieval and for determining the number of access points. The proposed taxonomic key identifies twenty responsibility functions and classifies them into five categories of authors. |
