the form presented in other prominent sources, or the form found elsewhere in the item,
in that order of preference.
If the name of the physical manuscript changes, change the heading as
appropriate when it is needed for current cataloging. Make a see reference (4XX) from
the previous heading.
Repository Designation
130 #0 $a Codex Leicester
430 #0 $a nne $a Codex Hammer
If the name of the physical manuscript cannot be determined, use its
repository designation as the heading. The heading consists of the current corporate
name heading for the repository that now holds the physical manuscript (or the repository
that last held the physical manuscript if the physical manuscript no longer exists), the
term “Manuscript,” and the designation in the repository.
110 2# $a British Library. $k Manuscript. $n Additional 43487
If the name of the repository changes, the physical manuscript is moved to a
different repository, or the designation within the repository changes, change the
heading as appropriate when it is needed for current cataloging. Make a see reference
(4XX) from the previous heading.
110 2# $a British Library. $k Manuscript. $n Additional 43487
410 2# $a Britishy Museum. $k Manuscript. $n Additional 43487
(Designation in former repository)
If the item being cataloged presents variant forms of the physical
manuscript’s repository designation, use as the heading the form found on the chief
source, the form presented in other prominent sources, the form found elsewhere in the
item, or the form appearing most frequently in reference sources, in that order of
preference. LC practice: For the designation in the repository, follow the pattern that
has been established in the LC/NAF for the particular repository. If no pattern exists,
use the form found on the item being cataloged or in reference sources.
Parts of Physical Manuscripts in Different Repositories
If a physical manuscript has become divided into multiple parts, with the
parts located in different repositories, establish the heading for each part separately
using the instructions above. Connect the headings with see-also (5XX) references.
Headings for Works that Are Parts of Manuscripts
Do not use the heading for a physical manuscript in an analytical added
entry. Do not use the form subheading “Selections” with headings for physical
manuscripts. To formulate analytical and other secondary entries for the works contained
in a physical manuscript, follow the appropriate rules in AACR2, chapter 25, and in LCRI
21.30M. If other rules in AACR2 chapter 25 do not provide a uniform title (i.e., the
title of the work is the same string as the name of the physical manuscript per rule
25.13), use the form subheading “Selections” for extracts from the work.

(The physical manuscript and the work it contains share the
same heading)
