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.
