Hi Jesse,
It can't be controlled as a title because it's not a title--it's a series-like phrase. It should be quoted in a 500 note in the bib record, not be in a 490/830.

I think I am asking why the title can not be controlled as a title?
I am wondering what's causing it...
The Name element (Undifferentiated personal name code = 008/32) is coded as "n" because the string "Routledge Focus" is tagged as a title; it is not tagged as a personal name. This element pertains only to personal names, not to corporate/meeting names or titles. This is documented at https://www.loc.gov/marc/authority/ad008.html

Good morning
I am looking at an item: Brexit and Aviation Law (isbn : 9781138591370)
On the cover: Routledge Focus
On the Series title page: Legal Perspectives on Brexit
I am perfectly fine with the Series information, I will establish a new series title - no problem - about to do so.
But my question is: In the fixed fields, for 'Routledge Focus', 'Name' is marked as 'n' - why is this title ' Not applicable?"
Or, rather, where in the documentation would this be explained?
In the 380 is the string: ' Series-like phrase'
thank you
