Description/Instructions

Field 111 contains named conferences, meetings, and events (exhibitions, expositions, athletic events, fairs, festivals, etc.) used as main entries.

For names of conferences or meetings entered as subheadings under the name of corporate bodies (e.g., American Library Association. Conference), use field 110.

Before tagging a name as 111, be certain that it represents a meeting or an event rather than an organization. For example, Congress of Neurological Surgeons, a professional society, should be tagged 110, not 111.

The coding of fixed field element 008/29, Conference publication indicator, is not determined by the presence or absence of field 111 in the record. For example, the main entry for publications which consist of conference proceedings may be tagged 110. Likewise, while a serial with a main entry tagged 111 will usually have a "1" in 008/29, there could be instances where the "1" would be inappropriate.

First indicator - Type of meeting name entry element

The first indicator signals the form of the name. According to AACR2, all conference headings are entered directly under their own name. Thus, always set the first indicator to value "2."
