| These are guidelines on recording the attributes of works and expressions associated with the intellectual or artistic content of a resource that users typically rely on when selecting a resource to meet their requirements relating to content (nature of the content, intended audience, language, etc.) |
| (7.1.1) Sources of information |
Take information used to describe content:
° from the resource itself
° from sources outside the resource in certain cases
° sources of information given for specific elements in RDA chapter 7 |
| (7.2) Nature of the content |
| The nature of the content is the specific character of the primary content of a resource (e.g., legal articles, interim report). |
| (7.2.1.2) Sources of information |
| Take information on the nature of the content from any source. |
| (7.2.1.3) Recording the nature of the content |
| Record the nature of the content if it is considered to be important for identification or selection.
Best practices for music cataloging: Make a note describing the genre/form of one or more of the works or expressions embodied in the resource if deemed useful for identification and access (i.e., if the work or expression is not adequately described by the title or by using appropriate genre/form or subject headings).
"Hybrid" notes may be constructed stating both genre/form and medium of performance (7.21), especially if compilations of diverse works can be thus described more concisely than by giving the elements separately.
Examples:
2011568262 Musical in three acts.
2010562599 Song cycle for mixed choir with piano accompaniment. |
| (7.7) Intended audience |
| The class of user for which the content of a resource is intended, or for whom the content is considered suitable, as defined by age group (e.g., children, young adults, adults), educational level (e.g., primary, secondary), type of disability, or other categorization. |
| (7.7.1.2) Sources of information |
| Take information on the intended audience from any source. |
| (7.7.1.3) Recording the intended audience |
| Record the intended audience for the content if the information is stated on the resource or is readily available from another source and is considered to be important for identification or selection.
Best practices for music cataloging: If applying this element, routinely encode 008/22. Additionally, make a note in a 521 field if deemed useful for identification and access.

| (7.12) Language of the content |
| a language used to express the content of a resource. |
| (7.12.1.2) Sources of information |
| Take information on the language of the content from any source. |
| (7.12.1.3) Recording language of the content |
| Record details of the language or languages used to express the content of the resource if they are considered to be important for identification or selection.
LC-PCC PS: In addition to recording the language of the primary content, also supply the languages of other content (summaries, tables of contents, etc.) if it will assist identification and selection.
Form of language:
When naming a language in a note, base the name on the form found in the current edition of MARC Code List for Languages, which provides for some alternatives to the language names in ISO 639-2, in order to correlate the MARC language names with those used in Library of Congress Subject Headings. Note the following when using the names from the code list:
1. Use the name found in boldface type.
2. Use the name for a specific language rather than the name of a language group.
3. Do not include parenthetical dates that appear with the name.
4. Retain other parenthetical qualifiers that appear with the name.
5. For the early form of a modern language that is found in an inverted form, use the early form in direct order within parentheses following the modern language.
Best practices for music cataloging: Follow LC-PCC PS. That is, routinely record language for the following linguistic content:
° Text underlying printed music (scores) (008/35-35, 041 ‡a)
° Sung or spoken text (sound recordings) (008/35-35, 041 ‡d)
° Text presented separately (e.g., librettos) (041 ‡e)
° Subtitles (041 ‡j)
° Language of accompanying text (e.g., critical commentary, program notes) (041 ‡g)
If readily ascertainable, also record:
° Original language of printed, sung or spoken text (041 ‡h)
° Original language of text presented separately (e.g., librettos) (041 ‡n)
° Original language of accompanying text (‡m)
Optionally, explain the language content in a 546 field (for primary language content) and/or a 500 field (for accompanying text), if deemed useful for identification and access.

| (7.15.1.2) Sources of information |
| Take information on illustrative content from any source. |
| (7.15.1.3) Recording illustrative content |
If the resource contains illustrative content, record illustration or illustrations, as appropriate.
° Tables containing only words and/or numbers are not considered as illustrative content.
° Disregard illustrated title pages, etc., and minor illustrations.
Alternative: Record the type of illustrative content in place of or in addition to the term illustration or illustrations, if it is considered to be important for identification or selection, using one or more appropriate terms from the list below.
music-specific: facsimiles illuminations photographs portraits
LC practice/PCC practice for Alternative: Generally do not record the type of illustrative content in place of or in addition to the term illustration or illustrations.
Best practices for music cataloging: Follow LC-PCC PS. In other cases, record illustrative content if deemed useful for identification and access.
Examples:
2010563374
300 __ 1 score (various pagings) : ‡b illustrations ; ‡c 31 cm
2012428885

If none of the terms listed above is appropriate or sufficiently specific, record details of illustrative content as instructed under 7.15.1.4.
Optional addition: Record the number of illustrations if their number can be ascertained readily (e.g., when the illustrations are listed and their numbers stated). |
| (7.15.1.4) Details of illustrative content |
| Record details of the illustrative content if they are considered to be important for identification or selection. |
| (7.16) Supplementary content |
content (e.g., an index, a bibliography, an appendix) designed to supplement the primary content of a resource.
LC-PCC PS: Supplementary content is a core element for LC for indexes and bibliographies in monographs.
Best practices for music cataloging: Follow LC-PCC PS. Note that "monographs" means all resources issued monographically, including scores and audio recordings. For audio recordings, this includes bibliographies and indexes found in accompanying inserts and booklets, since those form part of the resource. |
| (7.16.1.2) Sources of information |
| Take information on supplementary content from any source. |
| (7.16.1.3) Recording supplementary content |
| If the resource contains supplementary content, record the nature of that content (i.e., its type, extent, location within the resource, etc.), if it is considered important for identification or selection.

2013560313
500 __ Includes notes on performance and information about "paraphernalia" needed to modify the piano and listing of percussion instruments used.
LC-PCC PS: Record the presence of supplementary content in a note when the resource contains sections of special importance or would assist with identification or selection. Routinely consider the following as being important for selection:
bibliographies and bibliographical references, discographies, and filmographies, and indexes; appendices; errata slips that are not printed as part of the publication.
Give pagination or foliation unless the sections are scattered through the resource.
For the types of notes shown in the following examples, generally prefer a standardized construct, rather than a quotation from the resource:
2010476843
504 __ Discography: pages 327-331.
If a publication contains bibliographical citations in any form, generally use the following note:
2012560741
504 __ Includes bibliographical references.
If there is a single bibliography, add the foliation/pagination to the note.
2010494901
504 __ Includes bibliographical references (page 301).
2010538637
504 __ Includes bibliographical references (pages 167-180).

| (7.20) Format of notation music |
the musical or physical layout of the content of a resource that is presented in the form of musical notation.
LC-PCC PS: core element for LC.
Best practices for music cataloging: Follow LC-PCC PS. This element is incorporated into extent of notated music (3.4.3).
In addition, encode this element in 008/20 or 006/03 ("Format of music") and 008/21 or 006/04 ("Music parts") as appropriate. |
| (7.20.1.2) Sources of information |
| Take information on the format of notated music from any source within the resource. |
| (7.20.1.3) Recording the format of notated music |
Record the musical format using one or more appropriate terms from the list below:
- score (a graphical, symbolic, or word-based musical notation representing the sounds of all the parts of an ensemble or a work for solo performer or electronic media)
Best practices for music cataloging, draft: Note that the RDA definition of "score" includes music for a solo performer
- condensed score (score in which the number of staves is reduced to two or a few, generally organized by instrumental sections or vocal parts, and often with cues for individual parts; used for close score, reduced score, short score)
- study score (score issued in a musical image of reduced size, not primarily intended for use in performance. A descriptive phrase such as "Study score," "Miniature score," "Taschenpartitur," "Partition de poche," etc., usually appears on the resource)
- piano conductor part (performance part for a piano performer in an ensemble, with cues for the other instruments that enable the performer of that part also to conduct)
- violin conductor part (a performance part for a violin performer in an ensemble, with cues for the other instruments that enable the performer of that part also to conduct)
- vocal score (a score showing all vocal parts, with the instrumental accompaniment either arranged for keyboard(s) or other chordal instrument(s) or omitted)
- piano score (a reduction of an instrumental work or a vocal work with instruments to a version for piano. May include the words of a vocal work)
- chorus score (a score of a work for solo voices and chorus showing only the parts for chorus, at least in those portions of the work in which the chorus sings, with the instrumental accompaniment either arranged for keyboard(s) or other chordal instrument(s) or omitted)
- part (a component consisting of the music for the use of one or more, but not all, performers)
- choir book (a large music book made to be placed on a stand in front of a choir. Each part is notated separately, usually in the configuration that presents, when the book is open, the soprano and tenor parts on the verso of a leaf, and the alto and bass parts on the recto of the next leaf.)
- table book (a music book made to be placed on a table and displayed in such a way that the performers can read their parts while seated or standing across or around the table. Each part is notated separately, usually in a configuration that presents, when the book is open, different parts in inverted and/or perpendicular positions)
If none of the terms listed is appropriate or sufficiently specific, record details of the format of notated music as instructed under 7.20.1.4. |
| (7.20.1.4) Details of format of notated music |
| Record details of the format of notated music if they are considered to be important for identification or selection.

| (7.22) Duration |
the playing time, running time, etc., of the content of a resource.
Duration also includes performance time for a resource containing notated music or notated movement.
LC-PCC PS: core element for LC. |
| (7.22.1.2) Sources of information |
| Take information on duration from any source. |
| (7.22.1.3) Playing time, running time, etc. |
Record the time as follows, abbreviating terms for units of time as instructed in appendix B.5.3:
| |
hr. |
= hour, hours |
| |
min. |
= minute, minutes |
| |
sec. |
= second, seconds |
If the total playing time, running time, etc.,
° is stated on the resource, record the time stated.
° is not stated on the resource but is readily ascertainable, record it.
° is neither stated on the resource nor readily ascertainable, record an approximate time preceded by approximately.
° cannot be approximated, omit it.
Optional addition: If the actual playing time, running time, etc., differs significantly from the time stated on the resource, record the stated playing time followed by that is and the actual playing time, running time, etc.
Indicate that the information was taken from a source outside the resource itself as instructed under 2.2.4.
Alternative: If the resource consists of more than one unit, and the units have a stated uniform playing time, running time, etc., or an approximate uniform playing time, running time, etc., record the playing time, running time, etc., of each unit followed by each.
Best practices for music cataloging:
° Give total duration if the resource embodies one work/expression.
° Encode in 300 ‡a, a 500 note and/or a 306 field.
° Generally do not apply the alternative.
° Optionally, give total duration even if the resource embodies multiple works/expressions, if deemed useful for identification and access;
» in this case, give total duration in 300 ‡a, and durations of the individual works/expressions in a 500 note and/or a 306 field.
