* Main Entry

Enter the name as given on the title page (Be certain that you have the title page of the thesis not the abstract.) Do not include the author's birthdate. If the thesis has more than one author, enter the first given author in the 100 field and any subsequent author(s) in a 700 field(s). Search the name in Summit to see if this name is already in use.

In most cases names are single surnames. The 100 field of a single and multiple surname is coded with a first indicator of 1.

Search the name in the NAF to see if it is already established.

If name is not established, use it. Add birth year.

If name is established and the person is the same, use the established form. If the established form is for a different person, add the birth year if it is given. If not given, pass the name conflict to your supervisor.

245 === Title ===

As in normal cataloging, transcribe the title from the title page, followed by the subtitle in a |b, Author goes in |c.

260 === Imprint ===

Input only subfield c. Thesis are not published, so there is no place of publication or publisher.

In most cases the thesis has one significant date, the date the degree was granted. Sometimes the thesis will have a copyright date also. If the copyright and the degree granted date are the same, the copyright date can be ignored. If they are different, then both must be recorded in the record. The DtSt is "t" Date 1 is the degree date and date 2 is the copyright date. In the 260 |c the degree date is first followed by the copyright date.

|c 1997, c.1996.
