Tip #64, 12-10-10

Price information in the 020 field

Please do not add the item price in the 020 field when importing or editing MARC records in Evergreen.  Because we are a consortium, multiple items are often attached to each record and there can be variations in pricing. 

The price of your library's holdings can easily be recorded at the item level, on the copy editor screen.

If you find a price already in a record that you import or while editing, please delete that subfield.

Example:
020  |a 9780160864629 (pbk.) : |c $12.95    (Use SHIFT+Del to delete subfield c)

Information about removing price information from MARC records will soon be added to the EI Cataloging Procedures Guide.

Tip #63, 12-3-2010

Multiple subtitles in the 245 field

Subfield 'b' is not repeatable in a 245 field.  If you have an item with more than one parallel title, a parallel title and a subtitle, multiple subtitles, or more than one subsequent title, do not add another |b, but just separate the pieces of information with the appropriate preceding punctuation. 

A parallel title is always preceded by a space-equals sign-space, a subtitle is always preceded by a space-colon-space, and a subsequent title is always preceded by a space-semicolon-space.

Examples:

245 10  |a  World mythology : |b a beginner's handbook : great myths and epics come to life / Donna Rice.

245 10  |a Traditions = |b Tradiciones =  Traditionen / |c by Sandra Wintering.

245 10 |a  On tour  : |b 10 British jewelers in Germany and Australia = Auf Tournee : zehn britishe Goldschmiede in Deutschland und Australien.

245 14 |a  The cat in the hat comes back |h [videorecording] ; |b There's a wocket in my pocket ; Fox in socks.
