675 Fields (New Authority Records)
The 675 field is used to record sources in which no information about the person, body, or title was found. It is not always necessary to include in the 675 every reference source consulted; use judgment in deciding what sources are important enough to retain in the permanent record. The 675 is also used to document earlier/later names not found in the work cataloged.
1. The 675 field is not repeatable. Cite all sources in one continuous paragraph. Abbreviate source citations and separate them with a semicolon. Use subfield a before each separate source.
2. When using the 675 to document earlier or later names not found in the work cataloged, do not use subfield b to separate the bibliographic data from the heading data. Code b is not valid for the 675 field.
