[DCRM-L] 510 citations and the SCF

[Deborah J. Leslie]

While we’re talking about the SCF, the Examples to accompany DCRM(B) need updating to illustrate the new forms. Is that on a BSC project to-do list?

Please note, too, what SCF says about constructing the 510 http://rbms.info/scf/working-principles/ :

Subfield $a of the 510 field contains the standard citation form of the source in which the reference or citation appears. Subfield $c contains the specific location of the citation or reference within the source (e.g., page number, entry number, etc.). The first indicator in the 510 field contains value 4 (Location in source given) when subfield $c is present; the first indicator position contains value 3 (Location in source not given) when subfield $c is not present.
510 3_ $a Hiler, H. Bibliography of costume
510 4_ $a Abbey, J.R. Life in England in aquatint and lithography, 1770-1860, $c entry 137
510 4_ $a Fleeman, J.D. Bibliography of the works of Samuel Johnson, $c entry 65.10SP/1
510 4_ $a Hale, J.R. “Newberry Library supplement to the foreign books in M.J.D. Cockle’s A bibliography of English military books up to 1642 and of contemporary foreign works.” In Papers of the Bibliographical Society of America, v. 55 (1961): 137-39, $c entry 621a

The Examples to accompany DCRM(B) begin the ‡a with “References:” on all examples. Those can be removed when updating the citation forms.

Hi Manon,

I have always understood that the 510 is to be reserved for published bibliographical descriptions, despite the MARC format’s broader scope, and that references to other kinds of sources belong in a general note.

Subject: [DCRM-L] 510 citations

Hi, everyone:

I could use some clarification on citing resources in the MARC21 510 field. If the resource to be cited is NOT a bibliography or catalog and doesn't contain a bibliographic description of the resource being cataloged, can the 510 field still be used for the citation or should the citation be incorporated into the general note? For example, citing an entry for a printer in a biographical dictionary to justified supplied dates in the 26X or citing an academic monograph to justify an attributed name. DCRM(B) suggests that you can ("or other authoritative reference sources") and points to SCF as a standard, but the SCF scope statement itself is a bit narrower: "bibliographies and catalogs (printed or electronic) that are useful in verifying, identifying, or describing items held in rare book or special collections libraries and that have been or are likely to be cited in bibliographic records, trade catalog descriptions, and bibliographies."
Below are the relevant bits from DCRM(B), SCF, and MARC21.

Thanks!
Manon

===================
DCRM(B):
7B14. References to published descriptions
7B14.1. Give references to published descriptions in bibliographies or other authoritative reference sources if these have been used to supply elements of the description. Use the form and punctuation conventions recommended by Standard Citation Forms for Published Bibliographies and Catalogs Used in Rare Book Cataloging. Begin the note with the word “References” and a colon.
References: Evans 24658
(Comment: Made in conjunction with a general note reading: “Publication date
from Evans”)

7B14.2. Make other references to published descriptions, if considered important. Such references are especially useful whenever the cited source would serve to distinguish an edition (or variant) from similar editions (or variants), substantiate information provided by the cataloger, or provide a more detailed description of the publication being cataloged.
References: Gaskell, P. Baskerville, 17
References: ESTC (CD-ROM, 2003 ed.) T60996
References: Lindsay & Neu. French political pamphlets, 2194
References: BM STC Italian, 1465-1600, p. 368
References: Ritter, F. Incun. alsaciens de la Bib. nat. de Strasbourg, 277
References: Palau y Dulcet (2. ed.) 19161

7B14.3. A general note may be made if a description of the publication being cataloged does not appear in a specific bibliographical reference source. Make such a note only if the publication fits the scope for that source and the source purports to be comprehensive for its scope. Preface the general note with the words “Not in” and a colon.
Not in: Martin & Walter. Révolution française. Cf. IV:2, 9093

SCF Working Principles http://rbms.info/scf/working-principles/

Scope:

This database includes bibliographies and catalogs (printed or electronic) that are useful in verifying, identifying, or describing items held in rare book or special collections libraries and that have been or are likely to be cited in bibliographic records, trade catalog descriptions, and bibliographies.

MARC 21 Bibliographic Format, Application:

Use the citation forms recommended in this list when creating citation/references notes (field 510) in a MARC 21 bibliographic record. These notes are described in Descriptive Cataloging for Rare Materials (Books) 7B14.2 and other DCRM manuals.

The citation/references note (510) field provides a simple bibliographical citation for a published description of an item and specifies where in the resources that description appears; do not include other information. If necessary, use a general note (field 500) to record additional information provided by the resource cited. Create a citation/references note (510) field for titles which might be useful for retrieval, even in cases where this would involve repetition of information already recorded in a general note:

General note (500) field:

500 __ $a Evans calls this the 2nd edition.

Citation/references note (510) field:

510 4_ $a Evans, C. American bibliography, $c entry 14023

-----------------------
MARC21, 510 Field https://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd510.html

Definition and Scope:

Citations or references to published bibliographic descriptions, reviews, abstracts, or indexes of the content of the described item.

Used to specify where an item has been cited or reviewed. Citations or references may be given in a brief form (i.e., using generally recognizable abbreviations, etc.). The actual text of a published description is not recorded in field 510 but rather in field 520 (Summary, Etc. Note).

For books and music, this field contains references to published descriptions of the item (e.g., descriptions of rare materials recorded in a brief, standardized format) or reviews (e.g., reviews in professional literature).

For continuing resources, this field is used to specify publications in which a continuing resource has been indexed and/or abstracted and the dates of coverage, if known. The indexing and abstracting services referenced are primarily those issued as continuing resources. Certain monographic titles, particularly those that are standard reference tools in a subject area or that cover periods of time not included in continuing publications, may also be given in this field.

For unpublished visual materials or graphic items collectively controlled, this field contains references to published descriptions of the work or collection. Citations to reviews of projected visual materials are also recorded in this field.

For mixed materials, this field contains references to publications in which abstracts, citations, descriptions, or indexes of the described materials have appeared.
