Rule 7: Articles and Particles
Combine an article or particle in a personal or business name with the part of the name following it to form a single indexing unit. The indexing order is not affected by spaces or punctuation between a prefix and the rest of the name. Disregard the spaces and punctuation when indexing. Examples of articles and particles are: a la, D', Da, De, Del, De la, Della, Den, Des, Di, Dos, Du, El, Fitz, Il, L', La, Las, Le, Les, Lo, Los, M', Mac, Mc, O', Per, Saint, San, Santa, Santo, St., Ste., Te, Ten, Ter, Van, Van de, Van der, Von, Von der.
