> The group was chaired by Matthew Haugen and was asked to provide
> clear guidelines for PCC catalogers to achieve a consistent bibliographic
> and authority database with respect to access points for expressions. They
> were asked to:
>
> 1. Prepare a policy recommendation and supporting PCC guidelines to
> describe when and how to create authorized access points for
> expressions, and when and how to create authority records supporting
> those authorized access points, including a recommendation on the use
> of Field 336 in expression-level authority records.
>
> 2. Frame the guidelines within a definition and description of the
> problem so that both the concept and the implementation details will be
> understood by the PCC and broader professional community.
>
> 3. Recommend an implementation strategy (including a
> rationale/explanation) and timetable for these guidelines.
>
> Because of Hurricane Sandy, the annual Policy Committee meeting in DC
> in early November had to be canceled and we have been having a series
> of phone conferences to cover our work there. This report has been
> discussed and recently endorsed and is now going out to you for
> comment. Please read the document carefully. Any comments you wish
> to make can be sent to the PCC Secretariat at [log in to unmask] Considering
> the Thanks giving holiday, I would appreciate all comments by Friday,
> December 14th, 2012. This should allow us time to make any necessary
> adjustments and put the recommendations into practice by the end of
