"killing off" artists and literary figures, it would be nice if
their proposal to add to currently established headings would first

translation--<br><br>
the currently established NACO heading is: <br>
Borges, Jorge <u>Luis</u>, |d 1899-<br><br>
and not as in example #5 as they've given on their website:<br>
"scholars or literary figures, such as: <br>

There have been some very interesting discussions on the PCCLIST and
AUTOCAT lists.<br><br>

See especially the paragraphs announcing a proposal to allow NACO
catalogers to add dates to existing personal name headings (currently
there are only a few instances when we are allowed to add dates to
existing headings - this policy minimizes the need for catalog
maintenance but frustrates patrons who don't understand why death dates
aren't present in headings for persons who are long-since deceased). I'll
forward more info on this proposal as it becomes available, but do let me
know if you have any comments. I'll work with the NACO Coordinating
Committee to put together a Yale response before the 7/22
deadline.<br><br>
