- Subject: RE: Automatic authorities processing
I cannot help but respond to this. To change a 440 find to an 830 is a
total misunderstanding of MARC fields and what they stand for. To change a
440 to a 490 1 and have an 830 which would read the very same thing is
totally wrong.
The 440 field is totally valid. It means: This is the way item is described
in the book and is traced as such. A 490 b1 means that is the way it is in
the book, but we are tracing it differently in an 8XX field.
It is totally amazing to me that III, in their "automatic" authority
control, cannot keep the 440 field in the record. I would not my catalog
"automatically" reconciled this way.
