General
 +
When applying RDA Chapter 9 for fictitious characters and RDA Chapiter 10 for family names assure that the NAR 008/11 is set to “n.”
 +
 +
Corporate names for high government and religious officials
 +
Assign value “n” (Not applicable) to name authority records for corporate names representing the
 +
office held for Heads of state, heads of governments, etc., International intergovernmental bodies,
 +
Religious officials, and Popes when the name of the incumbent is included as part of the authorized
 +
access point. Also assign value “b” in 008/15, and make a 667 note indicating the form of the access
 +
point used in subject cataloging.
 +
 +
Examples of corporate names not appropriate for use as subject headings:
 +
États-Unis. Président (1953-1961 : Eisenhower)
 +
Iran. Shah (1941-1979 : Mohammed Reza Pahlavi)
 +
Illinois. Gouverneur (1973-1977 : Walker)
 +
Église catholique. Pape (1958-1963 : Jean XXIII)
 +
Church of England. Diocèse de Londres. Évêque (1675-1713 : Compton)
 +
 +
See also Manual 008/15 and the Manual 667 section “NARs and subject usage.”
 +
 +
Follow these guidelines for newly-created NARs. Make these changes also when modifying
 +
existing name authority records for any reason.
