FIELD DEFINITION AND SCOPE

Fully content-designated representation, in a different script, of another field in the same record. Field 880 and the associated roman field both contain a subfield $6 (Linkage). The subfield codes in field 880 are the same as those defined in the associated field except for subfield $6. 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 C: Multiscript Records; description of subfield $6 is in Appendix A Control Subfields; specifications for character sets and repertoires for scripts are found in MARC 21 Specifications for Record Structure, Character Sets, and Exchange Media.
