Additional information

A variant access point is selected as a secondary access point of the manifestation from all of the possible access points of the manifestation.

Element values

Record a value that is:

  • a string that is a variant access point that appears in an authority file
  • a string that is constructed with a string encoding scheme
  • an IRI for the variant access point that appears in an authority file

A variant access point cannot have the same value as the authorized access point of the manifestation.

String encoding schemes

A string encoding scheme should construct the base access point from a value of a has title proper element, if it is considered to be useful for users of the metadata.

A string encoding scheme should construct the base access point from a value of a has variant title of manifestation element, if it is considered to be useful for users of the metadata. The scheme should omit leading articles and punctuation so that the base appears in a browse index in order of the first significant word, if it is considered to be useful for users of the metadata.
