LC/PCC practice: When two or more bodies have the same name, make an addition to each name. Determine that a conflict exists when the preferred name or authorized access point for one body is the same as the preferred name or authorized access point for another body. "Conflict" is restricted to names already created or being created in the catalog. If a variant name conflicts with a form used in the authorized access point for another body, apply the provisions for resolving conflicts only to the variant name. Ignore the conflict that is only between names used as variants.

LC/PCC practice: If the name chosen for the access point for a corporate body is an initialism or acronym written in all capital letters (with or without periods between them), add a value of Corporate Body: category of corporate body to the name. Alternatively, a spelled out form of the name may be used as an additional designation if such an addition better identifies the corporate body.

LC/PCC practice: See the Metadata Guidance documentation: Corporate Body: access point for corporate body: additional elements and designations: initialisms and acronyms.

LC/PCC practice: For ongoing conferences, separate authority records may be created for the collective conference (typically made when cataloging a serial), an individual instance of an ongoing conference (typically made when cataloging a monograph), or both. These records may coexist in the LC/NACO authority file. A record for the collective conference should always be made to connect the earlier and later names of the collective conference.

LC/PCC practice: When creating an authority record for an individual instance of an ongoing conference, the additions for number, date, and location of a conference, etc. are given in the authorized access point. Variant access points may be given for variant names of the individual conference, such as acronyms for a spelled-out form. Generally do not connect an individual instance of an ongoing conference to the earlier or later instance of the conference as a related corporate body of corporate body, or to an authority record for the collective conference.
