The policies explained in this document were developed for Princeton University catalogers. They are consistent in every respect with national NACO policy. However, they may differ in some details with Library of Congress practice in those areas involving judgment or optional choices.

Some of the examples are provided for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily represent actual records in the NAF.
