I believe LC-PCC PS 9.16.1.3 applies to recording a profession or occupation in field 374. In fact, one of the examples given uses (Professor) in the access point. It would be very difficult to use controlled vocabularies for such additions, and what would be the point? Also, (Law teacher) is not a controlled term. ------------------------------------------ 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 From: Program for Cooperative Cataloging [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Christopher Thomas Sent: Thursday, July 20, 2017 13:16 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [PCCLIST] (Professor of law) as personal name qualifier I just came across the following name, established by LC: Siegelman, Peter (Professor of law) https://lccn.loc.gov/n2009079304 When I establish personal names for law professors and a qualifier is needed, I generally use (Law teacher) based on the LCSH term, since LC-PCC PS for 9.16.1.3 indicates that controlled vocabulary terms are to be preferred. There is no applicable LCDGT term I can find. Does anyone know what controlled vocabulary "Professor of law" might have come from, or other rationale for using it? I'm not going to change this one, but thinking about what I should use in the future.
