29A. General rule

29A1. Scope

Rule 29 gives general guidance on the making of added entries. Use it to supplement the specific instructions in rules 23–28.

29A2.

Make an added entry under the heading for a person or corporate body or under a title if some users of the catalogue might look under that heading or title rather than under the main entry heading. If in doubt as to whether to make an added entry, make it.

29A3.

Construct a heading for an added entry according to the instructions in rule 30–61.
For instructions on name/title added entry headings, see rule 29B4.

29A4.

If the reason for an added entry is not apparent from the description (for example, if a person or body used as the basis for an added entry heading is not named in a statement of responsibility or in the publication details), make a note giving the name of the person or body (see rule 7B6) or the title (see rule 7B4).
