This is an ARCHIVED VERSION of the 2008 electronic edition of the MARC 21 Concise Formats.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.

Fields 500-587 contain textual notes. Each note is entered in a separate 5XX field. General notes are recorded in field 500 (General Note). Information that appears in the notes area on printed output or on machine display is not always recorded in a specially defined 5XX note field. Data is sometimes carried in a structured form in another field (e.g., field 307 (Hours, Etc.)).
