I neglected to finish my second sentence.  It was supposed to say:

Follow "LC/PCC Practice for Creating NARs for Persons who use Pseudonyms" 
available on the NACO home page at

Subject: Re: Composite identities/pseudonyms in RDA?

The relationship of the pen name to the actual persons would be given in the 
name authority records, not the bibliographic record.  Follow


There should just be a 100 for the pseudonymous author of the work in the 
bibliographic record.  No 700s for the real identities.

To break the conflict in the 100 you have a variety of choices.  Period of 
activity or profession/occupation are preferred over Other Designation 
Associated with the Person (see 9.6.1.9 and 9.19.1.7).

In terms of the access point "Johnson, Lloyd, $c author of The beginner's guide 
to growing marijuana" is not correctly formulated.  What goes in $c is put in 
parentheses and the first word would be capitalized:

Johnson, Lloyd $c (Author of The beginner's guide to growing marijuana)

However, I would try to supply a period of activity or profession/occupation 
instead, e.g.:

Johnson, Lloyd, $d active ____

Johnson, Lloyd $c (Marijuana farmer)     ;)
