So, "6XX" refers to any field in the range 600-699. * 6XX the subject fields, of which 650 is for topical subjects and is the most common * 260 the publisher, place of publication, and date MARC uses fields from 001 to 899, with the 9XX range reserved for local use. * 7XX called "added entries" these are all of the additional authors, titles, and other information that is not part of the main entry. * 856 the field that carries a URL for the online version of the resource, or closely related information such as tables of contents that are online.īased on the card catalog, an access point was any element of the record that resulted in a card being added to the catalog for access.
