GENERAL

670 and 675 notes provide citations in authority record to works that have been consulted and the information that was found in those consulted sources. 670 and 675 citations are not bibliographic descriptions. The following examples are meant to illustrate the format and punctuation used when formulating these notes. They are not meant to be prescriptive.
These examples are taken from DCM Z1; NACO part. manual,and various authority records.



670 Examples
General purpose of the 670: To document usage on which the 1XX heading and variants (4XX) are based. May also be used to indicate the reason for a see also reference (5XX).

Web sites
NOTE: from Desc. Cat. man.: "In citations for publications viewed electronically, either by direct or remote access, give information in subfield $a in the context of the publication rather than how it was viewed".

Local files
NOTE: you can browse the current NACO participant MARC21 codes at: http://lcweb.loc.gov/catdir/pcc/pccliaisons.html
OR you can search by MARC21 code at http://www.oclc.org/oclc/forms/pisearch.htm

Serials as citations
Generally, use a chronological designation instead of a publication date when giving a 670 for a serial other than a monographic series.


675 Examples
General purpose of the 675: To document sources consulted where information specifically regarding the 1XX heading was NOT found. It is not always necessary to include in the 675 field every reference source consulted; use judgment in deciding what sources are important enough to retain in the permanent record.
General examples:
Note that $a is repeatable; there are no other subfields
