<li>Record variants found in the manifestation being cataloged:

<dd>○ Use cataloger's judgment;</dd>
<dd>○ No limitation on the number or form of references;</dd>
<dd>○ Instead of or in addition to adding variants, consider providing access by adding 37X fields.

<li>Establish additional NARs for the authorized access points needed to support elements used in 4XX variant access points (e.g., parent body associated with subordinate body being established).
<li>Generally provide a variant form 4XX access point for a former 1XX authorized access point, unless the former authorized access point was egregiously incorrect. See the section “Subfield $w – Control subfield” for more information.
<li>Use the established form of components in 4XX variant access points, except for non-Latin script variants, which may represent a mixture of scripts or may be entirely in a non-Latin script.
<li>Generally, do not remove variants unless egregiously incorrect (e.g., a non-Latin script variant that does not represent the same person).
<li>If a form found on the manifestation being cataloged includes a variant form of a component of a 4XX variant access point, that form may be used in its entirety as an additional 4XX variant access point, provided that it is not divided into its component parts through the use of subfields.

When changing the form of a superordinate body, a geographic name, or a personal name in a 1XX, update all of the existing NARs that use that component in a 4XX, unless the 4XX represents the former authorized access point (e.g., $w/2=e). ''Exception:'' Do not apply this instruction in the case of migrated authority records that have not been re-evaluated.
