553 - Valid Number Tracing (R)

MARC 21 Classification - Concise
2008

This is an ARCHIVED VERSION of the 2008 electronic edition of the MARC 21 Concise Formats. Please see loc.gov/marc/concise/ for the most up-to-date version of the electronic MARC 21 Concise Formats.

Tracing for a cross reference from one valid classification number to another valid classification number. If the classification number in the tracing is valid for some topics but invalid for others, this field is used, and the topics that refer to another number are specified in subfield $t (Topic).

Indicators
First - Source of classification number
0 - Schedule
1 - Table
Second - Undefined
# - Undefined
Subfield Codes
$a - Classification number--single number or beginning number of span (R)
$c - Classification number--ending number of span (R)
$h - Caption hierarchy (R)
Caption for each higher level of the caption hierarchy that precedes the caption for a classification number or span that is contained in subfield $j (Caption). The caption at the highest level is recorded in the first subfield $h. The caption at each successive level is recorded in sequence in separate subfields $h up to and including the level that precedes the caption contained in subfield $j. Captions for all levels of the hierarchy are recorded in the field. If the caption in subfield $j is the highest level of the hierarchy, subfield $h is not used. (However, some systems may wish to omit some levels of the hierarchy for display purposes.) A caption hierarchy for classification numbers in a summary number span in the Dewey Decimal Classification is contained in subfield $k (Summary number span caption hierarchy).
$i - Reference instruction phrase (NR)
See Tracings and References
$j - Caption (NR)
Lowest caption in the caption hierarchy for a classification number or span.
$k - Summary number span caption hierarchy (R)
Caption at a level higher than the last for a summary number span when the classification scheme identified in field 084 (Classification Scheme and Edition) is the Dewey Decimal Classification. Caption hierarchies for single classification numbers, defined numbers spans, or other types of summary number spans are contained in subfield $h. The last caption in the caption hierarchy for a summary number span in field 153 (008/07, Type of number, code c for summary number span) is recorded in subfield $j.
$t - Topic (NR)
Topic to which the tracing applies.
$w - Control subfield (NR)
See Tracings and References
/0 - Special relationship
/1 - Hierarchical relationship
/2 - Reference display
/3 - History reference
$y - Table sequence number for internal subarrangement or add table (R)
$z - Table identification (R)
$6 - Linkage (NR)
See the description of this subfield in Appendix A: Control Subfields.
$8 - Field link and sequence number (R)
See the description of this subfield in Appendix A: Control Subfields.
