John Wright, the head of cataloging here, has to approve it before it will show up in corrected form in OCLC. Sorry if I’ve caused trouble.

Janice, as I see it the authority record in OCLC still has: Pennington, Anne Elizabeth. Do you upload by batch to OCLC?

I hope I didn’t step on anybody’s toes, but I fixed it this morning to Pennington, Anne, 1934-1981.

Thanks for agreeing with me, John (at least I think and hope you are agreeing with me). I hope somebody rda-“compatible” will change the record.

The record was coded AACR2-compatible and had a 667 warning field until yesterday.  I think somebody goofed.

Subject: [PCCLIST] RDA name authority record that established an apparently unused form of name

The authority record below is coded as rda. I have checked OCLC records for usage for this author and find no instances of “Anne Elizabeth Pennington.” The majority of usages are Anne Pennington, and I find some A.E. Pennington, one Anne E. Pennington, two instances of En Penington (Polish editions). Can anyone explain why Pennington, Anne Elizabeth was chosen as the authorized form under rda when “Elizabeth” never seems to appear in usages and is not cited in any 670 field on the record?

I want to change the heading to Pennington, Anne. However, I have not received naco rda training so assume I cannot.
