Contains fixed-length data elements.
Positions
00-11, 17,

are defined the same way for all formats in ±¬ÁÏÍøBIS, i.e., the
default settings.
Positions 12-16, 28,
32 and 33
are defined differently for different formats and different content
values.
Fixed
fields entered in 008 include the
following:
Positions
00-05
Date
of record creation. Computer generated in the pattern «Y³Û²Ñ²Ñ¶Ù¶Ù».
Example:
040316
Position 06:
Direct or indirect geographic subheading. ±¬ÁÏÍøBIS headings are not
subdivided geographically, so the default is set at «n»
(not applicable).
Position 07:
Romanization scheme. Indicates whether the 1XX name or title heading contains the romanized
form of the headings and, if so, identifies the romanization scheme. In
±¬ÁÏÍøBIS, the default is «n»
(not applicable).
Position 09:
Kind of record. Indicates whether the record represents an established
or unestablished 1XX heading. In ±¬ÁÏÍøBIS,
the default value is «a»
(Established heading).
Position 10:
Descriptive cataloguing rules. Identifies the descriptive cataloguing
rules used to formulate the 1XX heading in established
heading records. In ±¬ÁÏÍøBIS, the default value is «d» (AACR2 compatible).
Position 11:
Subject heading system/thesaurus. Identifies the subject heading
system/thesaurus building conventions used to formulate the 1XX
heading
in established heading records. In ±¬ÁÏÍøBIS, the default value is «z» (Other).
Type of series.
Indicates the type of series heading contained in the 130
field in a
name authority record.
a
= Monographic series.
The 130 field contains a collective
series heading that applies to a
group of separate publications and/or subseries.
b
= Multipart item.
The 130 field contains a collective
heading that applies to a multipart
monographic publication.
c
= Series-like phrase.
The 130 field contains a series-like
phrase that may be used as a
series added entry in bibliographic records.
n
= Not applicable.
The 130 field does not represent a
series or a series-like phrase and
is not appropriate for use as a series added entry in bibliographic
records
z
= Other.
The 130 field contains a heading for a
publication that does not fit
any of the other defined codes but for which series-type treatment is
required.
Position 13:
Numbered or unnumbered series.
Indicates the numbering characteristics of the series (or series-like
phrase) represented by the 130 heading.
a
= Numbered series.
b
= Unnumbered series.
c
= Numbering varies.
n
= Not applicable--the 130 heading is not
a series heading.
Position 14:
Heading use--main or added entry. Indicates whether the heading is
appropriate for use as a main or added
entry in bibliographic records.
a
= Heading is appropriate for use as a main or added entry.
b
= Heading is not appropriate for use as a main or added entry.
Note: All types of headings, except
for series titles, are always coded «a»
, appropriate for use as a main or added entry, no
matter how they are used in a given bibliographic
record. Series titles are always coded «b»
, not appropriate for use as a main or added entry.
Heading use-subject added entry. Indicates whether the 1XX
heading is appropriate for use as a subject
added entry in bibliographic records.
a
= Heading is appropriate for use as a subject added entry.
b
= Heading is not appropriate for use as a subject added entry.
Note: In ±¬ÁÏÍøBIS, all types of
headings, except for series titles, are always coded «a» , appropriate for use as a
subject added entry. Series titles are normally coded «b» , but if a series is the
subject of a publication it will also be coded «a»
. For example, the «±¬ÁÏÍøCTAD
series on issues in international investment agreements»
has been discussed in some ±¬ÁÏÍøCTAD documents, so it is recorded as a
subject added entry (630) in the corresponding bibliographic records
and is coded «a» in
position 15.
Position 16:
Series added entry. Indicates whether the heading is appropriate for
use as a series added
entry in bibliographic records.
a
= Heading is appropriate for use as a series added entry.
b

tracing fields in a
record have been evaluated for consistency with the rules used to
formulate the 1XX heading in the record.
In ±¬ÁÏÍøBIS, the default value is
«a» (Tracings
are consistent with the heading).
Position 31:
Record status. Indicates whether a record update is in progress. In
±¬ÁÏÍøBIS, the default value is «a»
