SUBFIELDS

9016 Linking data

A two-digit number (01–99) may be entered for connecting fields 701 to corresponding field 901.

Instructions described at field 900 are also valid for all other subfields (see field 900).

NOTES ON FIELD CONTENTS

When cataloguing without the authority control, the subfield 6 – Linking data should be entered strictly. Subfield 6 – Linking data is designated to connect uniform headings with other forms of the author's name. Field 701 is connected to corresponding field 901 by entering the same number (01-99) in subfield 6. If field 701 has more fields 901, the same number is entered in subfield 6 of all belonging fields 901. By implementation of the personal names authority control, subfield 7016 is cancelled, because the connection has been established through subfield 3 – Authority record number.
