Subject added entry in which the entry element is a meeting or conference name.
Subject added entries are assigned to a bibliographic record to provide access according to established subject cataloging principles and guidelines. Field 611 may be used by any institution assigning subject headings based on the lists and authority files identified in the second indicator position or in subfield $2 (Source of heading or term). Subject added entries for meeting or conference names that are entered subordinately to a corporate body are recorded in field 610.
Description of the first indicator position and all subfield codes, as well as input conventions for the 611 field, are given in the X11 Meeting Names-General Information section. Because the second indicator is different for various fields, it is not described in the general information section, but is described below.
