411, 611, 711, 811	$b	$n

Subfield Deletes Table

MARS 2.0 deletes these subfields:

Tags	Subfield
052	$c
100, 110, 111, 130, 240	$h
100, 110, 111, 130, 240, 247	$w

Relator $e Deletions

Current cataloging practice restricts the use of Relator Term $e subfields in 100 Main Entry and 700 Added Entry-Personal Name fields. A common exception is the continued use of the relator term ill. for illustrators. Since there are many variants of ill. our MARS 2.0 software will look for these as well.

Relator terms table

MARS 2.0 deletes $e and its data in fields 100 and 700 if it contains one of these Relator Terms. If not found in this list, the information remains unchanged:

arr.	ed.	joint ed.
author	editor & translator	joint editor
comp. & arr.	editor and translator	joint tr.
comp. & tr.	editor	jt. auth.
comp. and arr.	joint auth.	jt. author
comp. and tr.	joint author	jt. ed.
comp.	joint authors	tr. & ed.
compiler	joint comp.	tr. and ed.
ed. & arr.	joint compiler	tr.
ed. & tr.	joint ed. & tr.	trans.
ed. and arr.	joint ed. and tr.	translator
ed. and tr.

Terms table for “ill.” changes

MARS 2.0 also changes the following variations to ill. in $e in fields 100 and 700:

comp. & illus.	ed. and illus.	jt. illus
comp. & ill.	ed. and ill.	jt. ill.
comp. and illus.	ill	tr. & illus.
comp. and ill.	illus	tr. & ill.
ed. & illus.	illustrator	tr. and illus
ed. & ill.	joint illus	tr. and ill.
