香港中文名稱規範數據庫Hong Kong Chinese Authority (Name) Database(HKCAN)Latest Development HKCAN Workgroup Hong Kong Innopac Users Group Meeting (November 2000)
Background (1) Joint Symposium on Library & Information Services (6/98) Chinese Resource Sharing Working Group (6/98) Hong Kong Chinese Authority (Name) (HKCAN) Workgroup (1/99)
Members include: * The Chinese University of Hong Kong Library *University of Hong Kong Libraries *Hong Kong Baptist University Library *Hong Kong Institute of Education Library *Hong Kong Polytechnic University Library *City University of Hong Kong (Observer) *Lingnan University Library (Convenor) Background (2) • Voluntary Participation
HKCAN’s Goal * To share Chinese authority work of Chinese names * To establish a Union Database of Chinese names * To use a SINGLErecord to link up an author’s multilingual works.
HKCAN Database Setup: 1. Design of Authority Model 2. Merging of Authority Data 3. Software Development 4. System Maintenance
1. Design of Authority Model * HK is a bilingual society * Many authors publish in both English & Chinese * Many publications are issued in bilingual format Equal Weighton both English & Chinese names
Example 1: Publication with title page and text in both Chinese & English
Example 2:Authors/editors publish in both English & Chinese concurrently
Various MARC Formats for Authority Control: 1. CNMARC 2. CMARC 3. MARC 21
Authority Record Formats in HK (1) * HK academic libraries follow MARC21, but with different authoritative forms for a name * Problem of inconsistent bibliographic information is highlighted when searching under a networked environment

HKCAN’s Earlier Proposal -- Repeating Tag 1XX (19X) • Similar to CMARC & CNMARC • Concept proposed in MARBI Discussion Paper 100 & 109 • 2nd 1XX -- replaced by Tag 19X
MARC 21’s Tag 7XX (Heading linking entries) Providing linking for equivalent headings in the same/different database(s) or authority thesaurus(es) • Repeatable - capable of handling headings in multiple forms or scripts • Recommended by Library of Congress • Proposed in MARBI DP100
MARC21’s Tag 880(Alternate graphic representation) • Non-romanized data parallel to the roman-character heading in the same record • Using Tag066to specify the type of character set presents in the record
Example of Tag 880 066 $c$1 100 1 $6880-01$aLau, Joseph S. M.,$d 1934- 400 0 $6880-02$aTs'an-erh,$d 1934- 400 0 $6880-03$aErh-ts'an,$d 1934- 400 1 $aLiu, Shao-ming,$d 1934- 670 $6880-04$aTs'ao Yu lun, 1970 880 1 $6100-01/$1$a劉紹銘,$d 1934- 880 0 $6400-02/$1$a殘二,$d 1934- 880 0 $6400-03/$1$a二殘,$d 1934- 880 $6670-04/$1$a曹禺論, 1970
Tag 880 - NOT Considered by HKCAN • 1XX in romanized form - NOT suitable for native speakers in HK • Labour-intensive & time-consuming
2. Authority Data Merging (1) • More than 100,000 Chinese authority records have been created by 7 HK academic libraries • Average annual intake = 23,000 records • LU will be responsible for merging all the authority data & duplication removal
2. Authority Data Merging (2)Cooperation on an international scale • Cooperation with the National Central Library in Taipei - to exchange for authority data • Acquiring authority data created by National Library of China
3. Software Development Developed by Transmission Information System Co., Ltd. (Taiwan)

Other Functions & Capabilities • Data maintenance & update • Report of duplicate headings • Online input of new records • Duplication / Statistical report on new records • Record uploading in batch
4. Database Maintenance & Record Contribution • New Records -- to be contributed by Member libraries on a regular basis • Database Maintenance -- to be taken up by The Chinese University of Hong Kong Library
Further Development of HKCAN 1. Online linkage to individual libraries’ catalogues
Future Development of HKCAN(1) 2. Machine-Produced Authority Records 3. To use 856 to provide hyper-link for access to websites of contemporary authors
Future Development of HKCAN (2) • Multi-lingual, multi-script & multi-purpose • Operate under Web-based environment
Conclusion • HKCAN stands as an imperative task for all libraries in HK • Our success hinges on the support, cooperative effort & effective communications among all library communities.
