CHARACTER POSITIONS

00 - Category of material
d - Globe
One-character alphabetic code that indicates the category of material to which the item belongs is globe, which is defined as the model of a celestial body, usually the Earth or the celestial sphere, depicted on the surface of a sphere. Code d is used when 008/25 (Type of cartographic material) contains code d. A fill character (|) is not allowed in this position.

01 - Specific material designation
Special class of material (usually the class of physical object) to which an item belongs, e.g., a celestial globe.
a - Celestial globe
Model relating to the sky of visible heavens (sun, stars, etc.) depicted on the surface of a sphere.
b - Planetary or lunar globe
Lunar globe (other than Earth) or a moon depicted on the surface of a sphere.
c - Terrestrial globe
Model of the Earth depicted on the surface of a sphere.
e - Earth moon globe
Model of the Earth's moon depicted on the surface of a sphere.
u - Unspecified
Special class of globe is unspecified.
z - Other
None of the other codes is appropriate.
| - No attempt to code

02 - Undefined
Contains blank (#) or a fill character (|).

03 - Color

l - Vinyl
n - Vellum
Fine-grained unsplit lambskin, kidskin, or calfskin prepared especially for writing or drawing on.
p - Plaster
Mixtures of ground solids and plaster are also coded as plaster.
u - Unknown
Physical medium of which the globe is made is not known.
v - Leather
Animal skin dressed for use.
w - Parchment
Skin of a sheep or goat prepared for writing on.
z - Other
None of the other codes is appropriate.
| - No attempt to code

05 - Type of reproduction
