FIELD DEFINITION AND SCOPE

Fully content-designated representation, in a different script, of another field in the same record. Field 880 is linked to the associated regular field by subfield $6 (Linkage). A subfield $6 in the associated field also links that field to the 880 field. The data in field 880 may be in more than one script.

When an associated field does not exist in the record, field 880 is constructed as if it did and a reserved occurrence number (00) is used to indicate the special situation.

Descriptions of models for and examples of multiscript records are contained in Appendix D; description of subfield $6 is in Appendix A; specifications for character sets and repertoires for scripts are found in MARC Specifications for Record Structure, Character Sets, and Exchange Media.
