13 Statement of responsibility Rare for video games to have a clear statement of responsibility Game developer or designer OLAC s Best Practices for Cataloging Video Games recommendation: Record only a clear statement of responsibility in the 245 $c, not simply a corporate name with no function indicated, especially if only represented by a logo. Example: developed by Guerrilla. 245 subfield c precede with / Transcribe exactly from source may come from any source on the resource itself Preferred source is the same source as title proper If multiple statements of responsibility, first is required, others can go in a note If from source outside the resource, put in brackets (i.e., website, publisher, etc.)
