• Library of Congress Genre and Format Terms: https://classweb.org/ or OCLC Authority Files (search term ge)

  • Generally, prefer lcgft for ABR items, unless the term does not exist in there, or another thesaurus has a better descriptive genre/form term. Use cataloger’s judgement.

• RBMS Rare Books Thesaurus (often used in SCA) https://rbms.info/vocabularies/index.shtml

  • When constructing RBMS terms, use the individual thesaurus as a parenthetical qualifier (except for RBMS Genre);

  • We have been subdividing these with place and/or time, but RBMS would prefer we don’t.

• Art and Architecture Thesaurus https://www.getty.edu/research/tools/vocabularies/aat/ Can be used when the above thesauri don’t have the term.

• FAST genre (and other) headings:

  • We leave in all OCLC fast genre headings, just as we leave in other OCLC FAST headings, but we don’t require catalogers to assign them to original records. However, if you do want to add FAST headings; add all of them, subject, genre, temporal. This this handy site will generate FAST headings at all once from entire block of copy/pasted 650/655 fields: https://fast.oclc.org/lcsh2fast/ The converter will add an initial ǂa to the new FAST fields, but they will disappear once you validate the record in OCLC.
