LC/PCC practice: Record the element using a structured description. If possible, express the relationship using a relationship label, or a relationship label in combination with an identifier or IRI, as allowed by the metadata management system. Apply this policy statement when recording: 1) an authorized access point in a bibliographic record, 2) an authorized access point for a related entity in an authority record, or 3) a structured value that is not functioning as an access point. If the metadata management system does not permit recording a relationship label for the element, omit it.
