When cataloging materials in languages other than English, use only records for which the language of cataloging is English (English abbreviations, subject headings, etc.), creating a parallel record in OCLC if necessary. In OCLC, a "language of cataloging" limiter can limit search results to records cataloged in English.
Subject/genre headings
In addition to other subject and genre headings guidelines:
- Except for dictionaries and language-instruction material, if the resource has significant text in two or more languages, add the local genre heading
Bilingual books.
655 7 Bilingual books.‡2local
- For motion pictures made outside the United States in a language that is not English, add the local genre heading
Foreign films. Delete any 650 or 655 fields with headings in the formMotion pictures, [nationality], unless the item is a work about that topic. (The 257 field is used instead for country of production.)
655 7 Foreign films.‡2localINCORRECT: 655 _0 Motion pictures, French.
655 _7 Feature films‡zFrance.
- Optionally, add Spanish subject headings to Spanish-language material, Polish subject headings to Polish-language material, etc. Any non-English subject headings must be in the language of the item. (Note: This only applies to subject headings, typically in a 650 field. Do not add any heading in a 655 field in a language other than English.)
- For Spanish-language materials, use only the following thesauri:
