Good question. I was working only locally—I declined to enhance the record on OCLC—and I made an added entry for “Ponto de exclamacao” (the book is in Portuguese; please forgive the lack of diacritics). I used “Exclamation point” in the 245, however.

There is a subtitle, “Antologia de contos fantasticos.” I can’t find any instruction in RDA for how to handle transcribing the title. I suspect it’s in there but I haven’t found it. Is there something in there that I’ve missed? Thanks, Pete Wilson Vanderbilt University
