The Development of Uniform Titles for Choreographic Works

In 1994, the Library of Congress issued a rule interpretation to AACR2 detailing how uniform titles for choreographic works should be established. The value of the rule interpretation is discussed, and it is contrasted with prior practices. The origins of the concept behind the rule are traced back to the New York Public Library in the mid-twentieth century, and its evolution into the current guidelines is delineated.
