Definition

A note expressing a complex relationship between the described materials and other items that cannot be adequately generated from the 76x-78x fields. See the 76x-78x  Linking Entry Fields–Introduction.

  • A continuing resource bearing a relationship to a monograph or other non-serial publication
  • A continuing resource bearing a relationship to one or more publications that cannot be named
  • A continuing resource issued in more than one frequency when two or more records are required

When used, field 580 appears in addition to any relevant linking entry fields.
