Notes on Field Contents

Examples

Ex. 1:

730.0#$aDerek Weselak$4070

The record was converted from a Dublin Core entry which makes no distinction between personal authors and others. "Creator" has the sense of primary responsibility for the item so the relator code for "author" is added.

Ex. 2:

730.2#$aInformation Systems, British Library$4070.

Ex. 3:

700.#1$tWeselak$bDerek

CONTENT takes the form "term comma term" and the NAME is "Creator.Personal". The name can with some confidence be assigned to a more specific 7-- field by the use of computer algorithms.

Ex. 4:

730.0#$aDerek Weselak

The record was converted from a Dublin Core entry which makes no distinction between personal authors and others. "Contributor" has the sense of any responsibility for the item other than primary responsibility, eg illustrator, sponsor, so no relator code can be added.
