Established Heading Record - Topical Term

Network Development and MARC Standards Office
Library of Congress


Established heading records for topical terms typically include several 4XX and 5XX fields. The tracing fields are justified by numerous 670 fields. Sources in which no information was found are recorded in a single 675 field, each identified by subfield $a. The 675 field is not repeatable.

In this record, 008/06 is coded i to indicate that the heading can be geographically subdivided by the indirect method. The descriptive cataloging rules code in 008/10 is n, because this character position is not applicable to the formulation of topical term headings.
