Definition |
A generic title constructed by the cataloger and used to collect works by a prolific author.
Use field 243 for uniform titles of a collective nature (e.g., Works) that are not distinctive enough for a title added entry. LC does not use field 243. LC enters all uniform titles (including collective uniform titles) in
field 240 (Uniform Title). OCLC encourages you to use
field 240.
Do not enter field 243 and
field 240 in the same record. |
1st Indicator |
Uniform title printed or displayed. Your profile designation and the 1st indicator of field 243 determine printing. See "Printing" for more information. |
|
| 0 |
Not printed or displayed. The uniform title is not printed or displayed. | |
|
| 1 |
Printed or displayed. The uniform title is printed or displayed. Use on records that you input into WorldCat. Value 1 prints for institutions whose profile designation is LC or ALL. OCLC defines values 7–9 for United Kingdom libraries. Libraries profiled for all uniform titles may use 1st indicator values 7, 8 and 9 to print field 243. | |
|
| 7 |
Works. United Kingdom library use only. | |
|
| 8 |
Selections. United Kingdom library use only. | |
|
| 9 |
Other collective titles. United Kingdom library use only. | |
2nd Indicator |
Nonfiling characters. The number of character positions associated with a definite or indefinite article (e.g., An or The) at the beginning of a title and that are disregarded in sorting and filing processes.
Note: Current practice is to enter the title without articles and use 2nd indicator value 0. |
|
| 0 |
No nonfiling characters. No initial article character positions are disregarded. Use value 0 if the title does not begin with an article.
Diacritical marks or special characters at the beginning of a field that does not begin with an initial article are not counted as nonfiling characters. | |
|
| 1-9 |
Number of nonfiling characters present. A field begins with a definite or indefinite article that is disregarded in sorting and filing processes. Enter the number of characters in the article, plus spaces, punctuation, diacritical marks and special characters that precede the first significant word.
Any diacritical mark or special character associated with the first filing character is not included in the count of nonfiling characters. | |
Subfields |
Do not enter brackets around the text of the uniform title because the print program supplies brackets. Do not enter a period at the end of the uniform title. Enter necessary punctuation at the end of the field if it ends with an abbreviation.

field 240). |
