Value of the indicator 2 signifying the form, i.e. the method of a personal name entry, is automatically transferred from field 700 of the corresponding authority record (see indicators at field 700).

SUBFIELDS

904s Script

Subfield contains a code indicating the script of the base heading (see examples 1, 2). It is used only in COBISS systems which maintain catalogues in more than one script.

The rules applied for field 900 are valid for all other subfields.

NOTES ON FIELD CONTENTS

This field is used only for cataloguing under authority control in COBISS.BG system, where different uniform headings are used for works published in Bulgarian language and also for works in other Cyrillic languages. After entering ID of the authority record in field 70X3, the appropriate number of fields 904 (one or two) is added automatically. Data is copied from field 700 of the corresponding authority record.
