A. General Information

The 019 field may contain permanent processing instructions added by Cataloging personnel (e.g., how to handle difficult material, cat as sep, class tog. decisions, etc.), temporary information to be deleted at a later date (e.g., whom to give a recalled item for re-marking, etc.), and/or other instructions deemed necessary to communicate information on the handling of a record/item.

019    Give to XYZ for re-marking.

019    *** Although both subseries are cat as serials (Documentary series & Yearbook), the main series: Dictionary of literary biography, is cat as sep. It is classed together for: at, MA, SL under: PS221.D5 v.__. It is classed sep for all other CES locations. Series as a.e. with ; v.__.

An 019 is also used to indicate that a record has been sent out for authority cleanup. It will contain MARS when that is the case, which should be retained in the bib record. (See Authority Control Policies and Procedures.)
