MARC 21 Concise Bibliographic: Series Added Entry Fields (80X-840)

This is an ARCHIVED VERSION of the 2000 electronic edition of the MARC 21 Concise Formats. Please see www.loc.gov/marc/concise/ for the most up-to-date version of the electronic MARC 21 Concise Formats.

Fields 800-840 contain a name/title or a title used as a series added entry when the series statement is contained in field 490 (Series Statement) or field 500 (General Note) and a series added entry is required for the bibliographic record. No 8XX series added entry field is used in conjunction with a series statement in the 440 field because it functions both as part of the bibliographic description and as a series added entry.

The roman numeral and the word Series: that precede a series added entry field in some displays are not carried in the MARC record. They may be generated based on the field tag.
