Notes
The title is the main field searched by those seeking information; it should therefore contain the name by which the resource is normally known. Alternative titles should also be given, so that all names by which the resource may be referred are covered. It may be necessary to make up a title, if none exists.
The title is the field first read by the user, and should ideally contain enough information to give a clear indication of relevance. If a resource is commonly known internally by a name which members of the public would find incomprehensible, it is recommended that an additional, meaningful name be given to it.
The title should be written in sentence case.
Where acronyms appear in the title, the expanded version should also be given.
