John It’s not in keeping, and we’re not allowed to do it. There used to be an LCRI that allowed it, but there is no LC-PCC-PS. The birth and death dates can be recorded in 046. Which is not to say that I haven’t seen it done, and I understand why people would want to do it.

I’m thinking that would not be in keeping with the guidelines in the PS’s or the FAQ. ------------------------------------------ John Hostage Senior Continuing Resources Cataloger Harvard Library--Information and Technical Services Langdell Hall 194 Harvard Law School Library Cambridge, MA 02138 [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> +(1)(617) 495-3974 (voice) +(1)(617) 496-4409 (fax) ISNI 0000 0000 4028 0917 ****************************************************************************************************************** Experience the British Library online at www.bl.uk<http://www.bl.uk/> The British Library’s latest Annual Report and Accounts : www.bl.uk/aboutus/annrep/index.html<http://www.bl.uk/aboutus/annrep/index.html> Help the British Library conserve the world's knowledge.
