We have been having a discussion locally about whether or not
changing the first word of a title to (or from) a possessive
form constitutes a title change.  For example, Polk's bank
directory ... changed to Polk bank directory ...  AACR2 21.2A1
specifies that singular vs. plural form does not constitute a
title change but possessives are not mentioned.  In English these
seem to be similar cases, but are perhaps less so in other
languages.  Is there an RI that we have overlooked, or would
this not be a title change?
