Forwarding a message on the new tagging policy to be followed when
establishing names of Indian tribes recognized by the U.S. government.
These are now tagged 151 (Geographic name) in name authority records
rather than 110 (Corporate name). Treat them as you would any other
jurisdiction (including changing the tagging to 110 or 710 in a bib
record when using the name as a main or added entry).<br><br>

<font size=2>The decision and guidelines on treament of American Tribes
as national governments (151) rather than corporate entites (110), as
previously coded, is now available on the CPSO Home page at:
<a href="http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/">
http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/</a> For ease of verification
when establishing these names CPSO has also posted a .pdf copy of
the December 5, 2003 issue of the <i>Federal Register</i> that contains
the list of name of these federally recognized tribes; updates to
this list will be posted as soon as these are published in the <i>Federal
Register.</i> </font></blockquote></body>
