Definition

Call numbers based on standard classification schemes not represented in the other call number fields. These schemes are usually available in printed or electronic form but are neither major schemes (e.g., LC or Dewey) nor local schemes.

Field 098 does not remain in the master record. It is retained in archive records, institution records, OCLC-MARC records, and exported records.

In some cases, you may enter call numbers based on state government classification schemes in field 086 (Government Classification Number) or field 098. See field 086 for more information.

1st and 2nd indicators

 00–99 The two indicators are assigned jointly to identify a two-digit code for Other Classification Scheme. In the list below, the first digit is the first indicator and the second digit is the second indicator.

31-99    Reserved. Reserved indicator combinations are available for definition of additional classification schemes. If you want to add a classification scheme to the preceding list, submit a request to your OCLC Regional Network Office or OCLC. Include a photocopy of the title page and sample pages from the printed classification scheme. Include a URL for an electronic scheme.

Subfields
‡a Call number based on other classification scheme Enter each printing line of the call number in a separate subfield ‡a.
‡e Feature heading A feature heading from a classified catalog. Data in subfield ‡e print on cards and display in label displays as if they were in subfield ‡a.
‡f Filing suffix A filing suffix from a classified catalog. Data in subfield ‡f print on cards and display in label displays as if they were in subfield ‡a.

Printing

 Field 098 prints in call number position. Field 098 overrides all other call numbers, except field 099. The characters in each separate subfield (‡a, ‡e or ‡f) print on separate lines.
 

If the number of characters in any subfield exceeds the margin size, the print program drops the body of the card accordingly. The size of the left margin is two characters fewer than the first indention. If your profile establishes the first indention at ten, the margin size is eight.
