Symposium on the Orion Nebula to honor Henry Draper / edited by A.E. Glassgold, P.J. Huggins, and E.L. Schucking. (OCLC #8845640)

“What’s a Festschrift?” asked many of us when we first saw this fixed field in cataloging class. And after looking it up, “how often do you see those?” As it turns out, it’s somewhat unusual (0.2% of records in our catalog) but that just makes it a rare treat to get to change that fixed field, and often the conference publication fixed field at the same time:

    Fest: 1     Conf: 1

RDA also includes a relationship designator for specifying who is being hono(u)red in the Festschrift:

    700 1_ ǂa Draper, Henry, ǂd 1837-1882, ǂe honouree.
