GUIDELINES FOR APPLYING CONTENT DESIGNATORS
Subelements occurring in uniform or conventional title, title
page title, or series title headings that are not entered under a
name in a name/title heading and that are constructed according
to the generally accepted cataloging and thesaurus-building rules
(e.g., Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR 2),
Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH)). A uniform
title heading is used to bring together bibliographic entries for
a work when various issues have appeared under different titles
and to provide identification for a work when the title by which
it is known differs from the title proper of a particular issue
or when different publications have identical titles. A uniform
title entered under a name is contained in field 240 or in
subfield $t (Title of a work) in the field appropriate for the
author's name (X00, X10, X11). Uniform titles used in phrase
subject headings (e.g., Bible in atheism) are contained in field
650 (Subject Added Entry-Topical Term).
There is no field 430 which corresponds to fields 130, 630,
730, and 830. See the description of fields 440 and 490 for
series statements consisting only of titles.
Guidelines for applying all content designators except the
second indicator position are given in this section. A
field-specific list of content designators and guidelines for
applying the second indicator position are provided under the
description for each specific X30 field.
■ INDICATORS
First Indicator -
Undefined [830]
Undefined and contains a blank
(#).
First Indicator - Nonfiling
characters [130/630/730]
Value that specifies the number of
character positions associated with a definite or indefinite
article (e.g., Le, An) at the beginning of a uniform title field
that are disregarded in sorting and filing processes.
0 - No nonfiling
characters
No initial article character positions
are disregarded. Diacritical marks or special characters at the
beginning of a uniform title field that does not begin with an
initial article are not counted as nonfiling characters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
130 |
0#$a"Hsüan lai hsi
kan" hsi lieh. |
Initial definite or indefinite article may also simply be deleted
in the formulation of the uniform title field. If the initial
article is retained but is not to be disregarded in sorting and
filing processes, value 0 is used.

130 |
0#$aLos Angeles

1-9 - Number of nonfiling
characters
Title begins with a definite or
indefinite article that is disregarded in sorting and filing
processes. Any diacritical mark, space or mark of punctuation
associated with the article and any space or mark of punctuation
preceding the first filing character after the article is
included in the count of nonfiling characters. Any diacritic,
however, associated with the first filing character is not
included in the count of nonfiling characters.
Second Indicator
Second indicator position is unique to
the function of the uniform title field. It is described under
the following fields: 130 (Main Entry-Uniform Title); 630
(Subject Added Entry-Uniform Title); 730 (Added Entry-Uniform
Title); and 830 (Series Added Entry-Uniform Title).
■ SUBFIELD CODES
$a - Uniform title
Parenthetical information added to make
a title distinctive is not separately subfield coded except in

INPUT CONVENTIONS
Punctuation -
Punctuation of the subelements of a heading is generally dictated
by descriptive cataloging or subject heading system/thesaurus
rules. These input conventions clarify MARC punctuation
practices. Fields 130, 630, 730, and 830 end with a mark of
punctuation or a closing parenthesis. If the final subfields are
subfield $0, $2, $3, or $5, the mark
of punctuation or closing parenthesis precedes those
subfields.
