D.3 Titling of Aggregates

The title of the aggregating Work should reflect that of the Manifestation. The component titles may additionally be added to the aggregating Work as alternative title types (see Alternative). They may also be added to any Items as alternative title types.

Titling of aggregates follows the same principles as that of other types of entities (see Titles and Title Types).

The title of the aggregate Manifestation forms the basis, but that title may be a “title proper” or a fully or partially devised/supplied title. (See Title Proper or Supplied/Devised Titles (i.e. Creating titles for untitled/unidentified entities or production material)).

Aggregates may be formed by an archive or institution itself for in-house or other event purposes. In these instances the title type should indicate it is a devised/supplied title in both the aggregate Manifestation and aggregating Work, as well as the Item.
