Marti,
Isn't this opening Pandoras box? Here one only needs to differentiate
between two towns but what about the more popular names, such as
Springfield, Washington, Oxford, Miami, Berlin, Moscow etc., etc. This
should be a local decision to meet local needs, but to have this
codified in an RI, that's most likely where it would end up, then all
PCC folks would have to do this.
I don't think that this approach will resolve the user question for the
Weimar problem. etc., etc.
which is the ri

Locating geographic names can be problematic if there are more than one
place with the same name in a state, country, etc. For example, there are
established headings for Weimar (Hesse, Germany) and Weimar (Thuringia,
Germany). It seems to me that it would be useful to create routine
references in this situation: e.g.,
451 0 Weimar (Germany : Hesse)
451 0 Weimar (Germany : Thuringia)
For systems that allow derived key searches for geographic names, these
would be useful references. The famous Weimar is the one in Thuringia,
but is the catalog user going to know that? What do you all think?
Should I propose to LC that this type of ref be routinely made?
