Rule for Personal Name Main Entry Citations

Drop the name portion from the citation if the surname is contained within the title:

 

Example

CORRECT:  Adams one-fifty

INCORRECT: Adams, R.F. Adams one-fifty

 

Instructions

  • Work through your portion of the title index (see table below)
  • Review each entry
  • For personal name main entries, verify the name has been dropped from the citation when the surname is contained within the title
  • Make corrections as necessary
  • Enter date of completion in the table below

Corrected only 1 citation, no. 188 Earl of Crawford's name appeared in title for a Bibliotheca Lindesiana part, so I deleted the PN main entry for Crawford, J.L.L.
