Then, in MARC, it can sometimes be using $e illustrator, but at other times $e 
artist? Or would one be using both terms? It's somewhat confusing to me.

Jenny,

The LC-PCC PS you cite is in chapter 20, the chapter for contributors, and 
states the policy requiring an authorized access point for the first 
illustrator (someone with responsibility for the expression, not the work). If 
the person involved in your resource has responsibility at the work level as a 
creator, you would not be consulting chapter 20.

Yes, the only creator-level term in appenidx I is "artist" because 
"illustrator" there is the term for a relationship at the expression level.

Hi All
I am looking at how to deal with children's picture books using RDA rules, and 
would like to know what others think.

I think of children's picture books as being co-created by the author and the 
illustrator, and I believe it would be a different work if there were different 
illustrations, rather than a different expression.

My reading of RDA is that if I believe a person to be a co-creator of a work, 
rather than a contributor to an expression, then the only available 
relationship designator for the illustrator is "artist".

However, there is an LC-PCC PS stating
"Provide an authorized access point in the bibliographic record for an 
illustrator in all cases of resources intended for children. Give the RDA 
appendix I designator "illustrator" in MARC 700 subfield $e."

Can anyone help explain this apparent anomaly?
Thank you
