This also relates to points raised about multilingual works, such as treaties, where multiple official language versions exist. For genuinely multilingual works, each language version of a title or statement might best be treated as a full instance of the element, as in Scenario 1. For single-language ...

I support removing the term "ad hoc"-it may confuse catalogers when determining what qualifies under that label. Since this definition will also be revised in the glossary (Recommendation #2) it would be helpful to make it as clear and unambiguous as possible in the Official RDA, especially for new ...

Hi Kathy, I support the proposal. The suggested location seems like a better spot for this information and is consistent with the organization of persons .
