The first step in adding an item to the MORE database is to search the database for a matching record. The most direct way to do this is to search by ISBN (or UPC if working with an AV item). If no match is found, try searching by title. Please refer to the Item Records — Searching for a matching record section for further details on determining whether or not an item needs an additional bib record created.
Information to fill out a bibliographic record can be taken from the entire resource. Use square brackets only for information taken from outside the resource. **This is a change from AACR2 (former cataloging code)
Each subfield must be bracketed separately.
Transcription plays a much larger role.
In general, abbreviations are spelled out in RDA except for units of measurement.
Subfield a (|a) is assumed in Sierra and therefore not shown
Click on Tools/MARC tag info when editing a bibliographic record in Sierra for more information on tags, indicators, and subfields
Starred (*) fields are considered core elements (must be included if applicable). Records brought in through Z39.50 must include these core elements.
