[Heb-NACO] [PCCLIST] Works. Selections (Date)

[Judith Zupnick]

What is the difference whether one records the date in subfield f or in parentheses?

I did a keyword search today in the OCLC authority file for titles containing the words works, selections, and 2015.  There are records like these:



Ashlag, Yehudah. ?t Works. ?k Selections (2015)

Do?gen, ?d 1200-1253. ?t Works. ?k Selections (2015)

Jano, Jack. ?t Works. ?k Selections (2015)

Kook, Abraham Isaac, ?d 1865-1935. ?t Works. ?k Selections (2015)

Lovecraft, H. P. ?q (Howard Phillips), ?d 1890-1937. ?t Works. ?k Selections (2015)



But many, many more records like these:



Austen, Jane, ?d 1775-1817. ?t Works. ?k Selections. ?f 2015

Benjamin, Walter, ?d 1892-1940. ?t Works. ?k Selections. ?f 2015

Chopin, Kate, ?d 1850-1904. ?t Works. ?k Selections. ?f 2015

Jackson, Shirley, ?d 1916-1965. ?t Works. ?k Selections. ?f 2015

Lawrence, D. H. ?q (David Herbert), ?d 1885-1930. ?t Works. ?k Selections. ?f 2015

Madison, James, ?d 1751-1836. ?t Works. ?k Selections. ?f 2015

Man Ray, ?d 1890-1976. ?t Works. ?k Selections. ?f 2015

Noonan, Peggy, ?d 1950- ?t Works. ?k Selections. ?f 2015



And more complicated ones such as:



Piglia, Ricardo. ?t Works. ?k Selections. ?f 2015 ?s (Editorial Universidad de Talca)

Piglia, Ricardo. ?t Works. ?k Selections. ?f 2015 ?s (Eterna Cadencia Editora)



Since Works. Selections is considered a work access point and not an expression point, when breaking a conflict with another collection that has the same collective title, the qualifier(s) should be put in paretheses and no subfielding is used in such a situation (work qualifiers are never preceded by subfield coding).



It doesn't look like many NACO catalogers understand this from the disparity between the number of correctly coded records and the incorrectly coded ones.   Do we need somehow to do a better job of teaching this?  Do we need a project to clean up all the incorrectly coded Works. Selections RDA access points?  Or does it not matter?
