2.36 Editing MARC 21 Bibliographic Variable Fields

The variable fields are documented by the Library of Congress at http://lcweb.loc.gov/marc. The purpose of this documentation is to state the behavior of this software, as well as to state the importance of particular fields to this software. 



Each bib must have a field 245, Title Statement, with a valid 
subfield a, Title.  No other tag or subfield is needed for a bib. 
Therefore, every library resource can go into the catalog:  books, 
journals, URLs, VCRs, room keys, etc.
