FIELD DEFINITION AND SCOPE

Information concerning the ownership and custodial history of the described materials from the time of their creation to the time of their accessioning, including the time at which individual items or group of items were first brought together in their current arrangement or collation.

Immediate source of acquisition is recorded in field 541 (Immediate Source of Acquisition Note).

Can also be used to record: 1) the owner's name and address when an item is located other than at the owner's address (the current location of an item is recorded in field 852 (Location)); 2) the original site of a work when it was originally commissioned/installed at one site but was subsequently moved to another location (the current site is recorded in field 851); or 3) the last known owner/location when the work being described has been stolen or destroyed. This field is identical to field 561 (Ownership and Custodial History) defined in the MARC 21 Format for Bibliographic Data.
