generic titles
- Scope note
- Titles or names for works that consist of the work type or otherwise are very generic. For example, if a chapel has the generic title "Chapel" rather than a more specific title, such as "Chapel of St. Mary." In book cataloging, generic titles may be constructed by the cataloger to collect works by a prolific author (e.g., "Speeches" as a title for a group of works by William Shakespeare).
