New page

==Step 2.13: Terminal punctuation==
MARS 2.0 now offers an option to omit terminal punctuation in ''descriptive fields'' within the Bibliographic Record. This option was born out of the [https://www.loc.gov/aba/pcc/documents/test-records-punctuation.html PCC's options] of omitting punctuation when desired.

At some point, medial punctuation will be addressed, but for now just the omission of ending punctuation is available.

 For a number of years, the PCC has been working on investigating the use of "minimal punctuation" within MARC records. In 2019 Backstage began developing a process to remove terminal punctuation from descriptive fields. This process was built based on an Excel spreadsheet provided by the PCC for which descriptive fields within a MARC record were allowed to have terminal punctuation removed. At the time, access points were NOT to have terminal punctuation removed.
