statements of patronage or prizes (e.g. "Winner of the Tchaikovsky Award, 1971 ") may be omitted or
given in area 7. Information such as "accompanying gramophone record" is given in area 5.
1.5.2.8 A statement of responsibility is not considered appropriate for the name of a responsible
entity which is linguistically an integral part of other descriptive elements and which has been transcribed
as such (e.g. as part of the title proper, see 1.1.2.6; as part of other title information, see 1.4.2; as part of
the statement of publication, distribution, etc., see area 4).
e.g.
Sargent conducts Vaughan Williams [Sound recording]
An exception is made when the name of the responsible entity is explicitly repeated on the prescribed
source of information in a formal statement of responsibility.
e.g.
Loto rythmique Martenot [Multi-media] / par Maurice Martenot
1.5.2.9 A statement of responsibility is not considered appropriate for the name of a corporate
body which appears on the prescribed source of information whenever the function of the body is not
specified and cannot be determined from the item being described or elsewhere. The name is given
instead in area 7.
1.5.3 One or more statements of responsibility
1.5.3.1 A single statement of responsibility occurs when the wording on the prescribed source of
information shows a single statement. More than one person or corporate body may be named in such a
statement, as when they are represented as performing the same function or, although performing
different functions, their names are linked by a conjunction.
1.5.3.2 More than one statement of responsibility occurs when the wording shows multiple
statements, as when more than one person or corporate body is represented as performing different
functions and these are not linked by a conjunction.
1.5.3.3 A statement of responsibility relating to appendices and other supplementary matter (see
1.5.2.5) is treated as an additional statement of responsibility following the statement relating to the whole
item or to the main part of an item.
1.5.4 Transcription
1.5.4.1 A statement of responsibility is transcribed expressed in the terms in which it appears on
the item.
e.g.
Chants mongols et bouriates [Sound recording] / enregistrements de Roberte
