FIELD DEFINITION AND SCOPE

Added entry in which the entry element is a hierarchical form of place name that is related to a particular attribute of the described item, e.g., the place of publication for a rare book. For display, a dash (--) may be generated to separate the subelements of the place name, e.g., Canada -- British Columbia -- Vancouver.

This kind of added entry is assigned according to various cataloging rules to give access to a bibliographic record through a hierarchical form of a place name related to a particular attribute (e.g., for newspapers, the name of the community served; for rare books, the place of publication or printing).

CONTENT DESIGNATOR HISTORY

In the serial specifications, this field was defined originally in 1975 as Non-AACR/ALA Entry-Place of Publication to contain a hierarchical form of geographic access to newspapers. In 1978, the name of the field was changed to Place of Publication Access (Newspapers) to clarify its usage.

In 1983, the field was redefined for use with other forms of material and was validated for the books, maps, and music specifications. The name of the field was changed to Place of Publication/Printing.

In 1984, the field was redefined to include place of production and was validated for the archival and manuscripts control and visual materials specifications. The name of the field was changed to Added Entry-Place of Publication or Production.

In 1986, the current names of the field and subfields were validated to better reflect a more generalized application of the field.
