Work Mark
We mentioned earlier that we may also create a book number
which will collocate, distinguish and order all works by an author.
The most frequent way of denoting this is by using an initial letter
of the first word of the title, e.g.
821.111-3 class:English literature
JOY author:James Joyce
p title: A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
This is again a situation in which we would check a
bibliographic description. However, when doing so we will soon
realize that if we want to collocate the same work or distinguish
different works of an author we may need some additional rules.
For instance, in the following situations:
• Work mark for the title that may be translated from the
original in a slightly different way, hence the initial word
may not be the same for different translations of the same
title
• Work mark for a series of books (often fiction) that all begin
with the same word e.g. Maigret and the Killer, Maigret and
the Idle Burglar, Maigret and the Ghost, Maigret and the
Coroner, Maigret and the burglar’s wife etc.
• Work mark for publications by corporate authors (e.g.
number of a conference, number of a congress, year of
congress and conference etc.)
• Work mark for the publication under formal headings, e.g.
title of the law, section of the law, year, status of the
document etc.
In the previous two sections we have illustrated some of the
reasons why there is a need for recording rules and having a system
of call numbering in order to achieve a predictable alphabetical
ordering. This is the reason why in addition to various existing
author number tables many libraries and librarians had to develop
more detailed rules.
