Technical Definition

There are two kinds of newspaper title provided: first, the title as it appears on that particular issue; second, the title in a normalised format. This may or may not be a version of the title as printed but rather an amalgamation chosen by the cataloguer. It is usually derived from the earliest available issue from that newspaper, after which alternate newspaper titles will be recorded. 

Category Notes

This field appears in all collections (though not all file types) except Chronicling America, which only includes the newspaper title in the issue data. Not all collections identify if the title is the printed title or a normalised one. URI for MODS sub-element: loc.gov/standards/mods/userguide/titleinfo.html#title. URI for Dublin Core term: dublincore.org/specifications/dublin-core/dcmi-terms/2012-06-14/?v=terms#title.

Individual Collection Notes
