Hi, Krishna-- Is there a reason that you don't want authority records for publishers to be Corporate Name authority records? We sometimes trace publishers (that is, have a 710 field in a bibliographic record linked to a 110 authority record) and it works very well for us--as well as other corporate names, we've found. Also, information about the publisher, and the fact that it is a publisher, could be stored in the authority record's 3XX fields--the information at http://www.loc.gov/marc/authority/ may be helpful. Cheerio! h2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Heather Hernandez Technical Services Librarian San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park Research Center 2 Marina Blvd., Bldg.
