Treatment of relator subfields

Discover how relator subfields 4, 5, e, j, and u are treated in Connexion client.

Treatment of relator subfields 4, 5, e, and u

When you control a non-qualified personal name heading (100 or 700 field) that has a relator subfield (‡4, ‡5,
‡e, or ‡u), the Control Heading window opens. If you accept an exact match to a qualified personal name heading, the (now-controlled) heading and relator field are inserted into the bibliographic record as a single unit.

For any other type of heading (qualified personal names, corporate names, conferences, and subject headings), the ‡4, ‡5, ‡e, or ‡u is automatically appended if the heading is matched to an existing authority record.

Examples (headings that automatically control with relator code present):

  • 710 2 0    New York Philharmonic. ‡4 prf
  • 700 1    Hatfield, Michael, ‡d 1936- ‡4 prf
  • 730 0    Hallmark hall of fame (Radio program) ‡5 OCoLC
  • 650    0    Unicorns, ‡e depicted

Treatment of relator subfield j

Conference name headings (fields 111, 611, 711, and 811) may contain a relator subfield j. The system does not attempt to match subfield j. If other subfields can be matched, the system adds subfield j to the heading as an uncontrolled subfield.

Example (conference heading that automatically controls with relator code in subfield j):

711 2 Alabama History and Heritage Festival ‡d (1983 : ‡c Auburn, Ala), ‡j parent body.
