MARC Report 247: Cataloging Check Changes

This page is produced by an automated comparison of the current cataloging checks (247) with those of the previous version (246). Message strings have been normalized to prevent slight differences in spacing, punctuation, etc., from being considered a change; but there has been no attempt to otherwise edit this comparison.

Message Ids for each change listed below are available as comments in the markup; you may access this data by viewing or downloading the source of this page.

<!– Id=20080093–> 008/06: Check Date1/Date2 for 'b'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 'b' when one or more dates associated with the item are Before Common Era (B.C.) dates. If this is really the case, then both Date1 and Date2 must contain 4 blank spaces, and the date(s) must be entered in tag 046 (Date1 goes in $b, and Date2 in $d).

<!– Id=20080094–> 008/06: Check Date2 for 'e'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 'e' (Detailed date) when Date1 is coded for the year (yyyy), and Date2 is coded for the month and day (mmdd); If the day is unknown, enter a two-digit month in Date2 followed by 'uu'; if the item indicates only the month, append two blank spaces to the month in Date2.

<!– Id=20080095–> 008/06: Check Date2 for 'd'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 'd' (Continuing resource ceased publication), indicating that Date1 contains the beginning date of publication and Date2 contains the date the item ceased to be published.

<!– Id=20080096–> 008/06: Check Date2 for 'm'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 'm' (Multiple dates) when Date1 and Date2 contain the range of years of publication of a multipart item; Date1 contains the initial (or beginning) date and Date2 the terminal (or ending) date, or '9999' if the publication is ongoing.

<!– Id=20080097–> 008/06: Check Date1/Date2 for 'n'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 'n' (Dates unknown; e.g. when no dates are given in field 260 or 264); in this case, both Date1 and Date2 contain 'uuuu'. If this is not the case, change the Type of date code to an appropriate value (http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd008a.html)

<!– Id=20080098–> 008/06: Check Date1/Date2 for 'q'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 'q' (Questionable date) when the exact date for a single date item is not known, but a range of years for the date can be specified; enter the earliest possible date in Date1, and the latest possible date in Date2. Do not use 'uuuu' with Type of date 'q'.

<!– Id=20080099–> 008/06: Check Date1 for 's'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 's' when Date1 consists of a known single date of distribution, publication, release, production, execution, writing, or a probable date that can be represented by four digits (but not 'uuuu').

<!– Id=20080100–> 008/06: Check Date2 for 't'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 't' (Publication date and copyright date). In this case, the date of publication/release/production/execution is given in Date1 and a copyright notice date or phonogram copyright notice date is given in Date2 (do not use 'u' in Date2).

<!– Id=20080101–> 008/06: Continuing resource code needed     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date/Publication status) should be coded for a continuing resource (‘c’, ‘d’ or ‘u’), since 000/07 (Bibliographic level) is coded for a continuing resource (‘s’, ‘b’, or ‘i'); either change the 008/06 code to ‘c’ (currently published) or ‘d’ (ceased publication) or ‘u’ (status unknown) and check your Date1 and Date2 dates, or change the 000/07 code.

<!– Id=20080102–> 008/06: Collection code required     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date/Publication status) should be coded for a collection (‘i', or ‘k’), since 000/07 (Bibliographic level) is coded for a collection (’c’ or ‘d’); either change the 008/06 code to ‘i’ (Inclusive dates of collection) or ‘k’ (Range of years of bulk of collection) and check your Date1 and Date2 dates, or change the 000/07 code to one that is not for a collection.

<!– Id=20080103–> 008/06: Monographic code required     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date/Publication status) should be coded for a monograph (‘b’, ‘e’, ‘m’, ‘n’, ‘p’, ‘q’, ‘r’, ‘s’, ‘t’), since 000/07 (Bibliographic level) is coded for a monograph (’m’); either change the 008/06 code and check your Date1 and Date2 dates, or change the 000/07 code to one that is not for a monograph (not ‘m’).

<!– Id=20080104–> 008/07: Missing Date1 and Date2     (AACR and RDA)
Both Date1 and Date2 are blank. This should only occur when the Type of date code is 'b', indicating a B.C. date that is coded in tag 046. If the date is completely unknown, or unknowable (as for a naturally occurring object), code Type of Date 'n', and enter 'uuuu' in Date1 and Date2. For more options, see: http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd008a.html

<!– Id=20080105–> 008/06: Check Date2 for 'i'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 'i' (Inclusive dates of collection), indicating that Date1 and Date2 contain the inclusive dates applicable to a collection. If the inclusive dates are represented by a single year, that date is given in both Date1 and Date2.

<!– Id=20080106–> 008/06: Check Date2 for 'k'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 'k' (Range of years of bulk of collection), indicating Date1 and Date2 contain the range of years applicable to most of the material in a collection. If the bulk dates are represented by only a single year, that date is given in both Date1 and Date2.

<!– Id=20080107–> 008/06: Check Date2 for 'p'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 'p' (Different dates of distribution and production), indicating there is a difference between the distribution/release/issue date (Date1) and the date of production/recording (Date2). For more details, see: http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd008a.html

<!– Id=20080108–> 008/06: Check Date2 for 'r'     (AACR and RDA)
008/06 (Type of date) is coded 'r' (Reprint/reissue date and original date), indicating Date1 contains the date of reproduction or reissue, and Date2 contains the date of the original, if known. (Date1 or Date2 contains 'uuuu' if unknown). If multiple dates are available for the original publication, Date2 contains the earlier date.

<!– Id=27600005–> %t: Subf $t expected     (AACR and RDA)
Linking tags (760-787) should contain a $t for the Title of the resource being referred to. Check the subfield $a to see if 1) it should be coded $t instead, or 2) a title has been appended to $a without being coded as such.
