Area 8: Standard number and terms of availability1.8, 2.8 For books: International Standard Book Number (ISBN) MARC 020 Required if given; Repeatable Prescribed source of information: any source No punctuation at the end
MARC 020 • Indicators: NONE • Subfields • $a International standard bibliographic number (ISBN) • $ z Canceled/invalid international standard bibliographic number
ISBNs • ISBNs are unique 10 or 13 digit numbers assigned to books. • Remember that ISSN’s are for serials (International Standard Serial Number) – see PP for Area 6: Series. • You can take this information from anywhere on the item. • Usually found on the TP verso and/or back cover • As of January 1, 2007, all books will use a 13-digit ISBN instead of a10-digit ISBN. • But you may see books with both a 10 digit and 13-digit ISBN • Add them both in separate 020s.
ISBNs • When copying it, take out the dashes: • 0-8389-3386-3 becomes: • 020 $a 0838933863 • 978-0-8389-3386-3 becomes: • 020 $a 9780838933863 • There can also be an “x” at the end of the number. Copy it as an upper case “X”: • On piece: 0-8389-3386-x ; 978-0-8389-3386-x • 020 $a 083893386X • 020 $a 978083893386X
Multiple ISBNs • If there is more than one ISBN on your piece, add them in separate 020s. • If there are qualifiers at the end of them, transcribe the qualifiers as you see them: • 020 $a 0838933861 (library binding) • 020 $a 0838933868 (trade ed.) • 020 $a 0838933867 (hardcover) • 020 $a 0838933863 (pbk.)
Corrected or invalid ISBN’s - $z • Sometimes ISBNs are printed incorrectly on books. • If you know the incorrect ISBN you put it in a $z directly after the correct ISBN • In practice, OCLC validates this number, so you don’t have to worry about knowing whether a number is valid or not • You don’t really have to worry about this for your homework • An 020 with a corrected number would look like this: • 020 $a 0838933863 (pbk.) $z 0838933855
The fixed field MARC 008 for books
The fixed field • The fixed field is a set of elements with codes that represent something about the bibliographic record. • This is not a part of AACR2 – MARC only! • These codes allow users to limit when they are doing searches on OPACs • For instance when you limit your search by language you are pulling that information from a fixed field code. • Example on next slide:
Fixed field • So in order to get the computer to limit searches, cataloging, uses a bunch of codes that tell the computer something. • Please pull up or print out the blank monographic worksheet. You will see the fixed field at the top of the page.
Fixed field codes • The fixed field that you will use for books is the MARC 008 and you can see many different elements here. • Here is the Main page for the codes • If you look at a fixed fields on your sheet or in the book and click on the corresponding element in the list on the left hand side of the page, you’ll get a list of codes for that particular element.
Specific elements • I will talk about the elements that you will need to worry about as you do your homework, and the ones that are important in practice. • If you want to find out about the other codes, you can go to that OCLC list and see what they are.
Cont – Nature of contents – Add if needed • This code tells the computer that the book has certain types of things. • This is mostly used when you have a bibliography in a book. • So if in your record you put: • 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. • You have to put a “b” in this code • Cont: b • Click the link above for more codes
Ills – Illustrations - Add if needed • This code is used when a book has illustrations or maps. • If you click the link above you’ll see all the possible codes that are available, but you will only use these: • a = illustrations • b = maps • So, if you have “ill.” in the 300: • 300 $a iv, 78 p. : $b ill. ; $c 28 cm. • You put an “a” in the Ills code: • Ills: a • So, if you have “ill.” and “map” in the 300: • 300 $a iv, 78 p. : $b ill., map ; $c 28 cm. • You put an “a” and a “b” in the Ills code: • Ills: ab
LitF –Literary form - Change if needed • This code is used to indicate whether a book is a work of fiction or nonfiction. • If you click on the link, there are many codes you can use, but we will use “0” and “1” • The code defaults to “0” for nonfiction. • If you have a work of fiction, you should change it to a “1” • LitF 1 • (This code covers all works of fiction – if your book is a specific sort of form, such as poetry or short stories, you can use a specific code in the list.)
Indx – Index - Change if needed • If your book has an index, you have to change this code to reflect it. • This code defaults to a “0” for no index. • If you have an index change it to a “1” • So if you have on your bibliographic record: • 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. OR • 500 $a Includes index. • You change this code to a “1” • Indx 1
Lang - Language of book - Mandatory • You need to put a code that represents the language of the book. • This code is found in a special list called the MARC code list for languages • You look on this list, find a particular code for the language of the book, and add it to the fixed field. • So for a book in English: • Lang eng
Language continued • It gets a little tricky when you have book that is in more than one language or if the book itself is a translation. • If you have a book in more than one language, put the primary language in the fixed field code and add the other language in a MARC 041 field. • A book in English and Spanish would be: • Lang eng • 041 0_ $a eng $a spa • A book that was originally written in French, but you’re cataloging the English translation: • Lang eng • 041 1_ $a eng $h fre
Ctry – Country - Mandatory • You need to add a code for the state or country of the publisher. • This code comes from the MARC code list for countries • The state/country is found in the 260 $a, and then you look it up in that list to find the code: • 260 $a New York : $b Wiley, $c 1989. • Ctry nyu • 260 $a London : $b Butterworth’s, $c 1989. • Ctry enk
DtSt - Type of Date/Publication Status - Mandatory • This is the code you add to indicate what kind of date the book has. • Usually a book will only have a single date: “s” • In the case of multipart monographs, it will have two dates, so you’d use “m”. • This comes from the 260 $c • For this class, you will only need code “s” • 260 $a New York : $b Wiley, $c 1989. • DtSt s (a single date)
Dates - Mandatory • You add the date of the book here. • This comes from the 260 $c • 260 $a New York : $b Wiley, $c 1989. • Dates 1989 • 260 $a London : $b Butterworth’s, $c [1909?] • Dates 1909 • If you are uncertain of the date, and have used a “-” in the date in the 260, then you use a “u” in the fixed field code • 260 $a London : $b Butterworth’s, $c [199-] • Dates 199u
Multipart monographs • If you have a multipart monograph that is published over a span of years, you would add the beginning and ending date. • 260 $a London : $b Butterworth’s, $c 1989-1995. • Dates 1989, 1995 • DtSt m
When you do your homework • On the blank monographic worksheet, I have highlighted the fields that you need to worry about on your homework. • You can refer to this PowerPoint, or you can go to the OCLC bibliographic formats and standards page and get all the little codes. • The next slide shows other common elements that you would use in practice.
Other common elements • ELvl: What is the level of cataloging? (Mand.) • Srce: Who is doing the cataloging? (Mand.) • Conf: Does the book contain papers from a conference? (Change if necessary) • GPub: Is the book a government publication? (Add if applicable) • Fest: Is the book a collection of essays in honor of someone? (Change if necessary) • Audn: Who is the intended audience? (Add if applicable) • Biog: Is the book a biography or does it have biographical information? (Add if applicable)
