800 Series Added Entry - Personal Name (R) (Variable Data Field)
Field 800 contains an author/title series added entry in which the author portion is a personal name. It is used when the added entry form of a series is different from that in the corresponding series statement. An 800 field is usually justified by a series statement (field 490) or a general note (field 500) relating to the series.
For reproductions, an 800 field may be justified by a series statement in subfield $f of field 533 (Reproduction Note).
The National level record requirement for this field is Mandatory if applicable.
Field 800 is repeatable.
Guidelines for applying content designators:
The content designators identify the subelements occurring in personal name fields constructed according to generally accepted cataloging and thesaurus-building rules [e.g., Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR 2), Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH)].
Personal names used in phrase subject headings (e.g., John, the Baptist, saint, in the Koran) are contained in field 650 (Subject Added Entry - Topical Term).
For indicator and subfield code definitions and examples, National-level (NLR) and Minimal-level (MLR) record requirements, and designator repeatability, see table below:
