Re: 776's

[Jeffrey Trimble <jtrimble@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The 776 field points the user to the same title in another physical format
(container).  We use it when we have the print, microform, and electronic.
This is a "reciprocating" field, that is, a field that can point from print
original to microform and microform back to print, etc.

We are beginning to explore the possibility of using the field to link
sound recordings to the scores that would match.  (Sound recording
of Beethoven Symphony #7 to a score for the same title, for example).
