Amy didn't mention the PCC guidelines however, which require relationship designators in some situations (such as for all creators, whether coded in 1XX or 7XX). See "PCC Guidelines for the Application of Relationship Designators in Bibliographic Records" at http://www.loc.gov/aba/pcc/rda/PCC%20RDA%20guidelines/Relat-Desig-Guidelines.docx

The associated LC/PCC PS reads "LC practice: Provide an authorized access point in the bibliographic record for an illustrator in all cases of resources intended for children. Give the RDA appendix I designator "illustrator" in MARC 700 subfield $e."

> We are implementing RDA original cataloguing soon and I would like to know whether the usage of relator codes (#e) with authors, editors, corporate bodies, etc. is mandatory in RDA? We feel that it is sometimes superfluous (like #eauthor) but would not like to contravene mandatory RDA guidelines. If it is mandatory, could I please have a reference to present to my "critical" colleagues. I have been unsuccessful in finding a clear guideline thus far.
