_Ex._ «Rough» diamond. But compound words, whether hyphened or not,
should be printed wholly in the heading type; as, «Out of door»
amusements. London, 1864. 8º. This is merely for looks; the kind of
type has nothing to do with the arrangement.
135. Add _pseud._ to the heading for all sorts of false names of
whatever origin.
So much is necessary to prevent mistake on the part of the public;
but it is a waste of time for the cataloguer to rack his brains to
discover which of the ingenious names invented by Pierquin de Gembloux
(cryptonym, geonym, phrenonym, etc.) is applicable to each case; for
the only result is that readers are puzzled. A list of these terms
may be found in the Notice of Quérard by Olphar Hamst [_i. e._, R.
Thomas], London, 1867.
The unauthorized assumption of any name should be indicated by
such phrases as _called_, _calling himself_, _dit_, _soi disant_,
_se dicente_ or _che si dice_, _que se dice_ or _se dicendiose_,
_genannt_, _genoemd_, etc.
136. When an author uses a single pseudonym add it to his name, unless
the entry is made under the pseudonym; when the pseudonym is used only
in one work, and different ones in other works, include it in that
title, followed by [_pseud._].
_Ex._ «Clemens», S. C. (_pseud._ Mark «Twain»).
«Godwin», Wm. The looking-glass; by T. Marcliffe [_pseud._]. {64}
137. Add _ed._ to the heading when it is needed to show that a book is
merely put together, not written, by the author in hand.
The title usually shows this fact clearly enough without _ed._ Short
would omit to note the fact, and in Full, perhaps even in Medium,
it is better to state it in the title than in the heading. The
distinction, after all, is rarely of practical value.
