NOTES ON FIELD CONTENTS

This field is used for entering variant forms of those subject headings that are not linked to authority records. Enter the forms that differ from the form in field 606. The search is simultaneously performed through fields 606 and 966.

The subfield 6 – Linking data must always be filled in, since it is used to link all forms of a subject heading (see examples 1, 2). Field 606 is linked to a corresponding field 966 by entering the same number (01–99) in subfield 6 of both fields. If more than one field 966 corresponds to a field 606, enter the same number in subfield 6 of all corresponding 966 fields.
