Field definition and scope:

Field 864 contains the enumeration and chronology of supplementary material that are not separately cataloged in the holdings of the reporting organization.  A display may be generated from the contents of field 864 and the related field 854 (Captions and Pattern - Supplementary Material) to which it is linked by subfield $8 (Field link and sequence number).

A general description of the four types of holdings data fields, their relationship to each other, and their repeatability is given in the 853-878 Holdings Data - General Information section.  A general description of the three enumeration and chronology fields is given in 863-865 Enumeration and Chronology - General Information.

Field 864 is repeatable.
