Textual Holdings Statement Fields: General Information
Field 866-868 contain a textual description which may include both the captions and enumeration and chronology for the holdings of a bibliographic item in the collections of the reporting organization. These fields are normally used in holdings for single-part items. They may be used instead of the coded Caption and Pattern (853-855) and Enumeration and Chronology (863-865) fields for multipart and serial items when those fields cannot be used adequately to describe the holdings. The 866-868 fields may also be used in addition to an Enumeration and Chronology field and any related Caption and Pattern field to record and generate an alternative display for all or part of the enumeration and chronology and captions and pattern fields.
A general description of the four types of holdings data fields, their relationship to each other, and the repeatability of each is given in the Holdings Data--General Information section. Guidelines for recording item information related to holdings data in the 866-868 fields is given in the Item Information--General Information section.
