Definition

Textual description which may include both the captions and enumeration and chronology for the holdings of a bibliographic item in the collections of the reporting organization. These fields are normally not used in holdings for single-part items. They may be used instead of coded fields 853-855 and 863-865 for multipart and serial items when those fields cannot be used adequately to describe the holdings. The 866-868 fields may also be used in addition to fields 853-855 and 863-865 to record and generate an alternative display for all or part of the enumeration and chronology and captions and pattern fields.

A general description of the four types of holdings data fields, their relationship to each other and the repeatability of each is given in the 84x-87x Holdings Data Embedded in Bibliographic Records section. Guidelines for recording item information related to holdings data in the 866-868 fields is given in the 876-878 Item Information--General Information section.

Fields 866, 867, and 868 are not retained in the WorldCat record, but are included in exported records and records delivered via other services.

1st Indicator

Field encoding level. The 1st indicator position contains a value that indicates the level of specificity of the enumeration and chronology in the field. Values 3 and 4 reflect requirements of Levels 3 and 4 of Holdings Statements for Bibliographic Items (ANSI/NISO Z39.71), formerly Serial Holdings Statement (ANSI Z39.44). Value 3 also reflects the requirements of Level 3 of Holdings Statements-Summary Level (ISO 10324). Values 3, 4, and 5 correspond to the level of specificity defined for the enumeration and chronology data at the record level by codes 3, 4, and 5 in ELvl, in local holdings records.
 
blank character

No information provided. The encoding level information is not provided.
3

Holdings level 3. The field contains summary enumeration and chronology (i.e., only at the first level of enumeration and chronology in a compressed form).
