Title: 100 - Heading - Personal Name (NR)
Information:

The Heading - Personal Name (100 tag) of the MARC 
authority record usually contains an established form 
of a name that can be used as a main entry, subject 
heading, or added entry. 

Personal name headings are established by agencies 
that publish them in either print or electronic form. 
Many personal name authorities are established by the 
Library of Congress and may also be found in the 
Cataloging in Publication (CIP) on the verso of the 
title page in many books. A few personal names are 
established in Sears List of Subject Headings 
and in Library of Congress Annotated Card or AC 
headings for children's literature. 

Local libraries may create their own personal name 
authorities for names not established by the Library 
of Congress, Sears, or LCAC. When headings for 
personal names are locally established, Chapter 22 of 
the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR2) 
should be followed.  

The subfields used in the 100 tag of the authority 
record parallel the subfields used in the 100 tag in 
the MARC bibliographic format. In addition subfields 
t, n, p, l, s, k, and f allow the authority record to 
include the title of a work associated with the 
person. Subfields v, x, y, and z allow for 
subdivisions used with the name in a subject heading.
