710 Added Entry - Corporate Name

Field definition and scope:

Field 710 contains an added entry in which the entry element is a corporate name. Added entries are assigned according to various cataloging rules to give access to the bibliographic record from corporate name headings which may not be more appropriately assigned as 610 (Subject Added Entry - Corporate Name) or 810 (Series Added Entry - Corporate Name) fields.

The National level record requirement for this field is Mandatory if applicable.

Field 710 is repeatable.

Guidelines for applying content designators:

The defined content designators identify the subelements occurring in corporate name fields constructed according to the generally accepted cataloging and thesaurus-building rules [e.g., Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR 2), Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH)].

A corporate name, a form subheading, a title of a work, and/or a city section name entered under the name of a jurisdiction are X10 corporate names.

A name of a jurisdiction that represents an ecclesiastical entity is an X10 corporate name.

For subject purposes, other names of jurisdictions used alone or followed by subject subdivisions are geographic names and are contained in field 651 (Subject Added Entry - Geographic Name).

For non-subject purposes, other names used alone are contained in 110 and 710 fields.

A named meeting that is entered under a corporate name is contained in the X10 fields.

A meeting entered directly under its own name is contained in the X11 fields.

Corporate names used in phrase subject headings (e.g., Catholic Church in art) are contained in field 650 (Subject Added Entry - Topical Term).

Subfields $c - Location of meeting [new]

$d - Date of meeting or treaty signing [new]

The location and date of a meeting and the date of signing of a treaty entered under a corporate body or jurisdiction were not separately subfield coded but included in subfield $p prior to the definition of subfields $c and $d in 1980.

Subfield $c - Location of meeting [changed, 2014]: In 2014, subfield $c was made repeatable.

Subfield $g - Miscellaneous information [changed, 2014]: In 2014, subfield $g was made repeatable.

In 1980, the definition of subfield $n was expanded to include meeting numbers. Prior to this change, the number of a meeting entered under a corporate body was not separately subfield coded.
