Message from CPSO (Cataloging Policy & Support Office, Library of
Congress):<br><br>
Thank you for responding to the proposal on allowing the addition of
dates to existing personal name headings at:
</font>
<a href="http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/pndates.html%A0%A0" eudora="autourl">
<font size=2 color="#0000FF"><u>
http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/pndates.html</a></u></font>
<a href="http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/pndates.html%A0%A0" eudora="autourl">
<font size=2> </a> It was most rewarding to see the tremendous
response and interesting discussions that this proposal has stimulated.
We are currently analyzing and summarizing the results for LC managers to
consider. <br><br>
One message that was very clear from the correspondence is that a change
to the current policy is indeed needed. Once a management decision is
made as to what that change should be and how to best proceed, CPSO will
be issuing an announcement<b> </b>and posting a summary of the responses
and our analysis. We expect that any decision in association with dates
in existing headings, etc. will result in the revision of LCRI 22.17, and
we will post that revision for a 30-day comment period with
implementation of the new policies to follow shortly thereafter.
<br><br>
