Name authority

• The purposes of name authority control are
• To ensure that all works by a particular author
  are retrievable with the same access point
• To ensure that only works by that author are
  entered under a particular heading
• To save the time and effort of having to
  establish the heading each time a work by the
  same author is catalogued

4
Unique uniform headings

• Two important principles for headings
• Unique each name or title has a heading like no
  other
• Uniform each heading is in the same form every
  time it is used
• All works by a particular author are entered
  under a uniform heading, regardless of how many
  names or how many forms of a name an author has
  used.
