1. Input information into all applicable boxes; include both the LCCN of the newly created NAR and the 1XX field.
2. Delimiters and diacritics create conversion problems when transmitting data; therefore, as appropriate:
• Include subfields in headings but convert delimiters to dollar signs (e.g. $b)
• Remove diacritics before submitting the form and include a note in the comments box that the heading includes diacritics.
3. Include source information (as used in 670) and other helpful information in the comments box.
