RDA 19.2 Creator
CORE ELEMENT
19.2.1.1 Scope
A creator is a person, family, or corporate body
responsible for the creation of a work.
Creators include persons, families, or corporate bodies
jointly responsible for the creation of a work. There are
two types of joint responsibility:
a) creators who perform the same role (e.g., as in a
collaboration between two writers)
b) creators who perform different roles (e.g., as in a
collaboration between a composer and a lyricist).
Creator In RDA:

• “relationship” to a Work
