DEFINITION AND SCOPE
Record control number and other kinds of control and coded information that are used
in the processing MARC community information records. Each control field is
identified by a field tag in the Directory and contains either a single data element
or a series of fixed-length data elements identified by relative character position.
These fields have no indicators or subfield codes.
In both of the 007 Physical Description Fixed Field and the 008 Fixed-Length Data
Elements Field, the specific data elements are positionally defined. A more detailed
explanation of positionally defined data elements is found in the description of
fields 007, and 008.
