Fields fields 368, 372, and 374 were added to the MARC authority format to contain certain kinds of information about the authorized access point. RDA prefers controlled vocabularies in these elements.

Policy

  • The Art & Architecture Thesaurus® Online (AAT) is the Folger's vocabulary of choice for these fields.
  • Apply Connexion authority constant data, below, of clusters for priority occupations, attributes of corporate bodies, and disciplines.
  • Cataloger's judgment on adding 374 and/or 372 for non-priority occupations, etc., with a suggested five-minute limit.
