Subject: [PCCLIST] Announcement re: Family AAPs for subject access points

The Policy, Training, and Cooperative Programs (PTCP) Division of the Library of Congress (LC) wishes to propose a change to current practice and allow family name authorized access points from the National Authority File (NAF) to be used as subject access points. See the white paper for a fuller explanation. (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.loc.gov/aba/cataloging/subject/FamilyNARs-white-paper.pdf__;!!KGKeukY!39fwSyX2_WqxnabmUUv3cq8eNlo-udlNzDBmo14Hxsp3VbjeWqYFb1OmJTstejuScE756bqDzm7KFcOXqw$ )

We invite the library community to offer comment on this proposed change. Please send all comments to policy at loc.gov with the subject line of “Family NARs as subjects” by Friday, March 3, 2023.

Please share this announcement with your own communities for the widest possible discussion.

Sincerely,

Library of Congress
Policy, Training, and Cooperative Programs Division
