Unit 4: Describing Content
Content Recorded in the MARC 300 Field
General Guidelines on Describing Content
Content -- Attributes of the Work Content -- Attributes of the Expression
42
Content Recordedin the MARC 300 Field
Because these elements are related to content, they are covered in RDA Chapter 7, not Chapter 3 Duration (7.22) Illustrative Content (7.15) Colour Content (7.17)
300 field is a mix of carrier data and content data
43
Content – 300 FieldDuration (7.22)
CORE ELEMENT for LC Scope = “Playing time, running time,
etc., of the content of a resource” If stated on the resource, readily
ascertainable, or can be approximated Use abbreviations per RDA App. B.5.3
MARC 300 $a
300 $a 1 audio disc (45 min.)300 $a 1 DVD (2 hr., 15 min.)
44
Content – 300 Field Illustrative Content (7.15)
CORE ELEMENT for LC for resources intended for children
Scope = “content designed to illustrate the primary content of a resource”
Take from any source Record illustration or illustrations
LC “generally” does not follow the alternative to record specific terms (e.g., charts, maps, portraits, forms, plans, etc.)
MARC 300 $b and 008/1845
Content – 300 Field Illustrative Content
Do not use abbreviations illustrations (not “ill.”)color (not “col.”)sound (not “sd.”)silent (not “si.”)
46
Content – 300 fieldColour Content (7.17)
Scope = “the presence of colour, tone, etc. in the content”
Take from the resource itself “other than black and white or shades of
grey” LC-PCC PS 7.17.1.3: use spelling “color”
MARC 300 $bcolor (illustrations are in color) some color (some of the illustrations are in color)
chiefly color (most of the illustrations are in color)
General Guidelines onDescribing Content
RDA Chapter 7 Sources
Take information used to describe content from the resource itself
In certain cases the information may be taken from sources outside the resource
Divided into Attributes of the Work and Attributes of the Expression This distinction is not always intuitive, but
it is clearly delineated in the Toolkit
48
Content –Attributes of the Work
7.2 – 7.9 Delineated by legend in RDA Toolkit:
Attributes of the Work
49
Content -- Attributes of the WorkNature of the Content (7.2)
Scope = “the specific character of the primary content of a resource”
Record if considered important for identification or selection
MARC 500, and 008/24 as applicable
Singspiel in two actsCross-cultural survey
50
Content -- Attributes of the Work Coverage of the Content (7.3)
Scope = “the chronological or geographic coverage of the content of a resource”
Record if considered important for identification or selection
MARC 500 or 522

some of eastern Europe
51
Content -- Attributes of the Work Coordinates of Cartographic Content (7.4)
CORE ELEMENT for LC for longitude and latitude
Scope = “a mathematical system for identifying the area covered by the cartographic content of a resource”
Not covered in this class
52
Content -- Attributes of the Work Intended Audience (7.7)
CORE ELEMENT for LC for resources intended for children
Scope = “the class of user for which the content of a resource is intended, or for whom the content is considered suitable” age group; educational level; type of
disability; another categorization

presented as part of the formal requirements for an academic degree”
degree; institution; year

54
Content -- Attributes of the Work Dissertation or Thesis Information
LC-PCC PS 7.9.1.3 If the resource lacks a formal thesis
statement … state its origin as a thesis in a general note (500) Include only the sub-elements (degree,
institution, date) that are availableLC does not often catalog theses or
dissertations; LC staff will usually need to construct a 500 rather than a 502

55
Content –Attributes of the Expression
7.10 – 7.28 Delineated by legend in the Toolkit
Attributes of the Expression
Remember: we already looked at 3 content-expression elements that are recorded in the 300 field
Duration Illustrative content Colour content
56
Content -- Attributes of the ExpressionSummarization of the Content (7.10)
CORE ELEMENT for LC for fiction intended for children For other situations: record if important
Scope = “Abstract, summary, synopsis, etc. of the content of a resource”
MARC 520 LC-PCC PS 7.10.1.3
LC-created – no attribution External – in quotes; with attribution
57
Content -- Attributes of the ExpressionLanguage of the Content (7.12)
CORE ELEMENT for LC Scope = “a language used to express the
content of a resource” LC-PCC PS 7.12.1.3
“… also supply the languages of other content (summaries, tables of contents, etc.) if it will assist identification and selection”
MARC 008/35-37;MARC 041 and 546 (as applicable) Use form from MARC Code List for Languages
58
Content -- Attributes of the ExpressionLanguage of the Content – ‘Coreness’
The core requirement is often satisfied by coding the 008 field; a 041 or 546 is not necessarily required for every record 041 is used to code multiple languages
present in the resource -- either with or without a translation being involved
546 is used to provide words to describe the languages of the content (and could be used for a single language, if considered helpful)
59
041 ## $a fre $a eng $a ita546 ## $a Articles chiefly in French; one
article each in English and Italian.
