Coop and PCC, In my previous email, I neglected to include two additional NARs that are not valid AACR2 headings and should be cancelled unless they are converted to RDA: nb2001027903 Preston, James, Lt. nb2002044711 Saxeston, Jennifer R.

Schiff <[log in to unmask]> To: NACO email at Coop Team <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Cancel NARs Coop, The following NARs were established incorrectly because the works are attributed to fictitious characters. The works cited are April Fool's Day publications created by Van Velzer, Lawrence G. According to AACR2 21.4C1: "If responsibility for a work is known to be erroneously or fictitiously attributed to a person, enter under the actual personal author or under title if the actual personal author is not known." The example shown in AACR2 is: The adventure of the peerless peer / by John H. Watson ; edited by Philip Jose Farmer (Written by Farmer as if by the fictitious Dr. Watson) Main entry under the heading for Farmer On the basis of 21.4C1, the following name authorities should be cancelled, since they should never have been established as valid AACR2 names: no2008187523 Barnaby, Baxter Jay nr2006008010 Cottinghamton, Peter Alfred nr2005008665 Durfort, Laurent no2006072685 Quagga, Basil Roan nb 99047523 Tobu, Sho, 1640-ca. 1699 We did not move these names to be former headings on the NAR for Van Velzer, Lawrence G., because AACR2 doesn't say to make a reference from a fictitious name. There is no 4XX for Watson, John H. on the NAR for Farmer, Philip Jose. Thanks, Adam
