Major Change since April 2000 –Authority model [7xx] from [19x] to
7XXin MARC 21 – linking for equivalent headings in the same/different database(s) / authority thesaurus(es) • In April 2000, based on LC’s advice, Workgroup decided to adopt [7XX]. • Because [7XX] field is a standard MARC21 practice & performs the same functions as [19X]
Tag 7XX (Heading linking entries) 3. Repeatable - capable of handling parallel headings in multiple forms / scripts 4. Facilitates sharing & exchanging of authority data on a global scale
Tag 7XX (Heading linking entries) 5. NO requirement for a corresponding authority record for [7XX] heading 6. Supported by III & will be implemented in the New Immediate Release
