Enter a translated title according to guidelines for the title (

‡a Title |

In records formulated according to ISBD principles, subfield ‡a includes all the information up to and including the first mark of ISBD punctuation (i.e., an equal sign [=], a colon [:], a semicolon [;] or a slash [/]) or the medium designator (e.g., [microform]). |
|
‡b Remainder of title |
The remainder of the title information. Include parallel titles, titles subsequent to the first (in items lacking a collective title) and other title information.
In records formulated according to ISBD principles, subfield ‡b includes all the data following the first mark of ISBD punctuation up to and including the mark of ISBD punctuation that introduces the first author statement (i.e., the first slash [/]). Do not repeat subfield ‡b when more than one parallel title, subsequent title and/or other title information are given in the field. |
|
‡c Statement of responsibility |
The first statement of responsibility and/or remaining data in the field that has not been coded in one of the other subfields.
In records formulated according to ISBD principles, subfield ‡c contains all data following the first slash (/). |

|
‡n Number of part/section of a work |

In records formulated according to ISBD principles, subfield ‡n data follows a period (.). Use a single ‡n for multiple alternative numberings. |
|
‡p Name of part/section of a work |
A name of a part/section of a work in a title.
In records formulated according to ISBD principles, subfield ‡p data follows a period (.) when it is preceded by subfield ‡a or another subfield ‡p . Subfield ‡p follows a comma (,) when it follows subfield ‡n. |
|
‡y Language code of translated title |
A three-character language code that indicates the language of the translated title. See MARC Code List for Languages (
