    Abstract
    Describes a new fiction indexing initiative by the British Library which seeks to redress the imbalance between the level of access provided for fiction and non fiction in library catalogues. From Jan 97, BNB catalogue records for works of fiction will be indexed using LCSH in conjunction with a range of genre and form headings derived from the ALA Guidelines on Subject Access to Individual Works of Fiction, Drama etc. (GSAFD). Looks at the implications for improving library services such as literature promotions and enquiry work

    Abstract
    InterParty is a project that aims to develop a mechanism that will enable the interoperation of identifiers for "parties" or persons (authors, publishers, etc. - persons and corporate bodies in library authority files) across multiple domains. Partners represent the book industry, rights management, libraries, and identifier and technology communities, united by their perception of a common benefit from interoperation in terms of access to "common metadata" held by other members to improve the quality of their own data. The InterParty solution proposes a distributed network of members who provide access to "common metadata," defined as information in the public domain, sufficient to identify and distinguish the "public identity" of a person. At a minimum the InterParty network would provide access to multiple domains of data about persons, including multiple library authority files, author licensing data files, etc. It will also add value by providing a facility for linking records between different data files by means of a "link record." Link records will assert that an identity recorded in one database is the same as another identity recorded in another database. Linked data will be mutually enriching and therefore more reliable and supportive of accurate disambiguation of persons within and between databases. InterParty has potential to develop a common system that supports both the emerging needs of e-commerce and the traditional requirements of library authority control.
