FIELD DEFINITION AND SCOPE

Fully content-designated, alternate graphic representation 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 links that field to the 880 field. 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. The data in field 880 may be in more than one script.

Descriptions of models for and examples of multiscript records are contained in: 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.
