NOTES ON FIELD CONTENTS

A statement indicating frequency in field 326 must correspond to the code entered in subfield 110b – Frequency of issue.

If it is desired to note frequency or update at different periods during the existence of the continuing resource, the field 326 should be repeated. Directory entries for the repeated fields should be ordered with the most recent frequency first (see examples 2, 5).
