The second indicator specifies whether the name is entered in direct order (only a forename or a forename and a surname) or under surname (a surname and a forename), and the type of the variant name entered in field 960.
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 600. The search is simultaneously performed through fields 600 and 960.
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 600 is linked to a corresponding field 960 by entering the same number (01–99) in subfield 6 of both fields. If more than one field 960 corresponds to a field 600, enter the same number in subfield 6 of all corresponding 960 fields.
