ACCESSIBILITY CONTENT

Sign Languages

LC practice/PCC practice: For items in which a sign language is present (e.g., a book containing pictures of the hand shape of each letter of a particular sign system, a videorecording that is signed), give a note stating the particular sign system (e.g., American Sign Language, British Sign Language). Formulate the note to reflect the situation, i.e., use terminology to distinguish between cases in which the content of the whole item is signed, whether as the sole medium of communication or in conjunction with one or more others, and those in which a sign language is present but the whole item is not signed.

For example, for a videorecording in which the sign language is the sole medium of communication, give the note "Signed in [name of sign system]." For a videorecording that includes open signing, i.e., a sign language interpreter appears in a separate frame, give the language note "Open signed in [name of sign system]." For more complex situations (e.g., a dictionary containing both a language and a sign language), give the note "Includes sign language; the sign system represented is [name of sign system]." If it cannot be determined what sign system has been used, give a note indicating that the item is signed but not specifying the sign system; e.g., "Includes sign language."; "Open signed."

RECORDING SUPPLEMENTARY CONTENT

General

LC practice: 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, if considered important, unless the sections are scattered through the resource.

EXAMPLE

$a "Life cycle of the liver fluke": leaves 75-89.

$a "Types of prayer wheels found in south central Tibet, by Mei Lin": pages 310-375.

$a Tables showing family relationships (Ogden, Reese, and Jordan): pages 120-125.

$a Includes biographical sketches of each satellite governor.

$a "Websites of interest to Lincoln scholars": pages 220-231.

For the types of notes shown in the following examples, generally prefer a standardized construct, rather than a quotation from the resource:

EXAMPLE

$a Discography (or Filmography): pages 310-375.

$a Errata slip inserted.

Bibliography Note

LC practice: If a publication contains bibliographical citations in any form, generally use the following note:

EXAMPLE

$a Includes bibliographical references.

If there is a single bibliography, add the foliation/pagination to the note.

EXAMPLE

$a Includes bibliographical references (pages 310-325).

With respect to bibliographic citations and bibliographies, interpret the phrase "bibliographical references" to include all kinds of resources, including electronic resources; do not give any special treatment to, or provide special mention of, the latter if using this general bibliographical reference note.

Indexes

LC practice: If the publication contains an index to its own contents, use one of the following notes:

EXAMPLE

$a Includes index.

$a Includes indexes.

The bibliography note and the index note may be combined.
