Substituting hexadecimal notation for diacritics and special characters in Uniform Resource Identifiers. When recording a URI in subfield ‡u, you may enter most of the spacing characters listed below as either characters or their hexidecimal equivalents. Consult the table below.

Note: Do not confuse the spacing characters listed below with their long-valid non-spacing counterparts. Use of the spacing characters will be limited almost exclusively to URLs.

Enter as character or hex value		 Spacing circumflex/circumflex accent ^ %5E
Spacing underscore/low line 1  _ %5F
Spacing grave/grave accent ` %60
Spacing tilde/tilde ~ %7E
Enter as hex value only vertical bar n/a %7C

1  Because the Spacing Underscore may cause problems with MARC output, users may prefer to continue entering it with the hexidecimal value %5F.


‡3 Materials specified The portion of the binding that is described in the field.
‡5 Institution to which field applies A code of the institution or organization that holds the copy to which the field applies. Use for notes that do not apply to the universal description of the item.
