FIELD DEFINITION AND SCOPE

Information that identifies the authoritative classification scheme used to formulate the number caption in field 153 (Classification Number).

Includes the edition that contains the classification number(s) and term(s) in the record. It also may indicate the edition title, date, and language of a particular version of the classification scheme. If a library creates its own record for a classification number maintained by another classification source, the classification scheme on which it is based is specified in field 084 and the library creating the record is identified in field 040 (Record Source).

SUBFIELD CODES

$a - Classification scheme code
Variable-length alphabetic MARC code that identifies the classification scheme used to formulate the classification number and caption in field 153 (Classification Number). The code is based on the general classification scheme used without regard to the particular edition or adaptation of the scheme. A classification number or span that has been adapted in some way from the information in the authoritative classification scheme is coded for the scheme in this subfield and the MARC code or name of the library that made the adaptation is contained in field 040 (Record Source). The source of the classification scheme code is Classification Scheme Source Codes.
