a) those of an administrative nature dealing with the corporate body itself

or

its internal policies, procedures, finances, and/or operations
or

its officers, staff, and/or membership (e.g., directories)

administrative regulations (see 21.32)

constitutions (see 21.33)

treaties, etc. (see 21.35)

court decisions (see 21.36)

d) those that report the collective activity of a conference (e.g., proceedings, collected papers), of an expedition (e.g., results of exploration, investigation), or of an event (e.g., an exhibition, fair, festival) falling within the definition of a corporate body (see 21.1B1), provided that the conference, expedition, or event is named in the item being catalogued
e) those that result from the collective activity of a performing group as a whole where the responsibility of the group goes beyond that of mere performance, execution, etc. Publications resulting from such activity include sound recordings, films, videorecordings, and written records of performances. (For corporate bodies that function solely as performers on sound recordings, see 21.23.)
