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 609. The search is simultaneously performed through fields 609 and 969.

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 609 is linked to a corresponding field 969 by entering the same number (01–99) in subfield 6 of both fields. If more than one field 969 corresponds to a field 609, enter the same number in subfield 6 of all corresponding 969 fields.
