*Answer:* The LCPS for 2.4.1.4 says "Generally do *not* abridge a statement of responsibility" \[i.e. by not transcribing titles, affiliations, etc. of the author\]. The LCPS for 2.5.1.4 says "Generally do *not* omit names in a statement of responsibility." |

Beyond the LCPS word "generally," Cornell's policy is: |
Try to transcribe the author(s)' affiliations, following the general spirit of RDA, but don't if the amount of time taken is not worth it in your judgment. |

Try to transcribe all of the authors up to four to five; after that, it is cataloger's judgment whether to use the "\[and \--\- others\]" omission.
