CLASSIFICATION
PH3164.F86
The subject heading Funeral songs was assigned in the bibliographic record, but the heading does not exist and should be proposed. Alternatively, the heading could be removed and the class number changed. The proposal may be resubmitted.
PL988.C36
It seems that Chang Hŭi-ch'un wrote only nonfiction. The work being cataloged should be classed with the subject, probably in DS808. The proposal was not necessary.
PN1590.R33
The class number proposed (for race in the performing arts and show business) does not match the subject heading assigned, Race in the theater. The heading should class in PN2219.A-Z, and a cutter will need to be proposed. Alternatively, if the work is really about race in the performing arts, a subject heading will have to proposed, and the class proposal may be resubmitted.
[DS-DX5 .x45-.x49] and related proposals
Ethnography of the Arabian Peninsula classes in DS219.A-Z. This proposal seeks to begin classing the ethnography of the individual emirates, etc., with the emirates. Doing so would divide materials about the same ethnic group in the same region. A reference will be added in DS-DX5 to refer Ethnography to DS219.A-Z. The proposals were not approved.
KL-KWX6 1395.S43
This proposal may be resubmitted with a resubmitted subject proposal. See below under Shared taxi industry for details.
SUBJECT HEADINGS
5G mobile communication systems--Security measures; Mobile communications systems--Security measures; Telecommunication systems--Security measures
These proposals were not necessary because the subdivision --Security measures is free-floating under individual systems and types of systems.
Aeronautics, Commercial--Freight--Security measures; Cargo handling--Security measures; Freight and freightage--Security measures
These proposals were not necessary because the subdivision --Security measures is free-floating under individual industries and types of industries.
Online social networks--Security measures; Internet of things--Security measures
These proposals were not necessary because the subdivision --Security measures is free-floating under individual networks and types of networks.
Antarctica--Discovery and exploration--Japanese
This heading is still represented by the multiple subdivision --Discovery and exploration--French, [Spanish, etc.]. The proposal was not necessary.
Comfort women in motion pictures
The proposal contained no information in English that shows the relationship of the heading being proposed to the work being cataloged. The proposal may be resubmitted.
Artistic perception; Creation (Literary, artistic, etc.)
The meeting does not believe that there is a distinction between the meaning of the concept Artistic perception as it is proposed and the existing heading Creation (Literary, artistic, etc.). The proposals were not approved.
Gaihōzu
Gaihōzu are military maps created by the Japanese government or military. All of the western powers (England, France. Germany, etc.) produced topographic maps, and they are controlled by headings that cover the geographic and genre nature of the map. A Nazi topographic map of Austria would have a subject heading Austria--Maps, the genre/form term Topographic maps, and headings for the government bodies that created, published, or otherwise produced the map. The meeting does not wish to begin a pattern of establishing separate headings for the specific terms used by each governmental body for certain types of maps. The headings Japan--Maps and Military maps should be assigned to the work being cataloged.
The proposal was not approved.
Guarita Fazenda (Brazil)
The broader term that was chosen is not supported in the source citations. Fazenda has several translations, only one of which is hacienda. Information that is added to the proposal to support the choice of BT should be in English. The proposal may be resubmitted.
Itàsy, Lake (Madagascar)
The UFs are not supported in the source citations, and Geonet was not cited as required by Subject Headings Manual (SHM) H 690. The proposal may be resubmitted.
Needlework, Armenian
The heading that should be assigned is Needlework--Armenia. The proposal was not approved.
Shared taxi industry
When creating an industry heading, a heading for the base concept (shared taxis) must be created at the same time. The proposal may be resubmitted along with a proposal for Shared taxis.
Venezuelan literature--Political aspects; Colombian literature--Political aspects; Ecuadorian literature--Political aspects
The main headings are covered by the literature pattern, SHM H 1156. Although the subdivision --Political aspects is not listed there, English literature--Political aspects is established, meaning that --Political aspects can be used on a free-floating basis under literatures. SHM instruction sheets H 1156 and H 1095 will be revised to clarify this usage.
The proposals were not necessary.
GENRE/FORM TERMS
Art calendars
Calendars is the genre/form. “Art” in this term is the topic of the illustrative content, which can be brought out by the assignment of subject headings. The proposal was not approved.
Risographs
This proposal does not cite a work being cataloged as required (see LC Genre/Form Terms Manual J 160 sec. 1.a.(1)).
Additionally, the proposal implies that saying risograph for a print is like saying xerox for a photocopy, because the Riso Kagaku Corporation makes the machine on which one makes risographs. The problem is, like photocopies, other companies produce similar machines that do the same thing. Is there a generic word for these (equivalent to photocopy)? Is the word risograph always used, regardless of the manufacturer of the machine?
The proposal may be resubmitted.
