12-13. Corporate Main Entry & Biography Subarrangement

12. Corporate Main Entry. When the book number cutters to a corporate name, the cutter is not adjusted when more than one work has the same corporate name main entry. The different works are distinguished by the date. If more than one work is published in the same year, the dates are distinguished by work letters B-Y.

13. Biography Subarrangement. For biography class numbers, e.g. BX4705 (Catholic biography), subarrange using the SCM Shelflisting G320 Biography table.

See also LC Call Numbers (Overview), Example 6.

Although the G320 Biography table should be followed with respect to form cutters A2-A5 and book numbers A68-Z, we are no longer able to maintain total file integrity for biography class number arrangement by cutter of the biographee due to the use of trailing X.
