    Subdividing Corporate Name Headings by Place H 475

    BACKGROUND: It is customary to divide by place certain categories of corporate name


    headings, primarily names of religions or religious orders, when they are assigned as subject
    headings. This authorization appears as the value i in field 008/06 (the box labeled
    Direct/indirect geographic subdivision on the 008 input screen in the LC ILS). This instruction
    sheet defines the types of corporate body headings that are appropriate for geographic
    subdivision and describes the procedures to determine whether a corporate body name has
    already been authorized for geographic subdivision or to add this authorization to an existing
    heading.

    1. Types of corporate body headings that may be divided by place. Geographic subdivision of
    a corporate body heading is used only to bring out the actual physical presence of the corporate
    body or its individual members in the place indicated by the geographic subdivision. Although
    this technique is used most frequently for religions and religious orders, there are occasionally
    other headings for which it is appropriate. Examples:

    610 20 $a Catholic Church $z United States.


    610 20 $a Jesuits $z France.
    610 20 $a Peace Corps (U.S.) $z Ghana.
    610 20 $a International Labour Organisation $z Switzerland.

    LC practice:
    2. Searching the LC Database. To determine whether geographic subdivision has already been
    authorized for a particular corporate body heading, retrieve the name authority record for the
    heading in the LC Database. If the code i appears in field 008/06, the heading may be divided
    geographically.

    3. Proposals to divide corporate name headings geographically. If a new or existing heading


    has not been authorized to be divided by place and it is necessary to do so to catalog a current
    work, set the 008/06 data element in the name authority record to i.

    Note: An automated validation program reports on a daily basis new name headings
    where the 008/06 has been set to i or existing name headings where the 008/06 has been
    changed to i. These reports are sent to the Policy and Standards Division for review.
    PSD either approves the 008/06 setting or, if the setting is not appropriate, changes it
    back to the default setting of n and notifies the individual who created or changed the
    record.
