STEP 4.6 : OTHER ABBREVIATIONS

046 field

046 fields are useful when your dates cannot be correctly coded in X00 $d, due to B.C. dates or incorrect dates being used (1). This may another means to make that date available or understandable:

 
 original field:
    100 $a Smith, John, $d 1950-1952
  
 created field:
    046 $a m $c 1950 $e 1952
 

Here we have an example where the birth & death date of the person in question doesn't appear to be correct, so we can create an 046 field from the 100 $d in this instance. The m designates that we are working with multiple dates and the c and e subfields let us know that these dates are part of the Common Era.

382 field

38X fields can be added to your records to correspond with music headings in a way to help break up the original music heading into a more machine-actionable set of fields (2). In particular, 382 fields (Medium of Performance) chunk the music heading's medium into its own field:

 
 original field:
    100 $a Telemann, Georg Philipp, $d 1681-1767.
    240 $a Suites, $m string orchestra, $r D major.
  
 added fields:
    382 $a string $a orchestra
    384 $a D major
 

In this example, the 240 $m is mapped to 382 $a to denote the Medium of Performance. For completion sake, the mapping of the 384 field is also shown.

MARS 2.0 processing will not attempt to add a 382 field if any of the following is present:

• 382 field already exists in record
• 240 field has $k, $o, $p, "brasses", "plucked instrument", or "keyboard instruments"
• 240 $m contains "strings", "woodwinds", "winds" and 240 $t does not contain "trio", "quartet", or "quintet"

 
 original fields:
   100 $a Hoffmeister, Franz Anton, $d 1754-1812. $t Quintets, $m violins, violas, cello, $r A major
   100 $a Bonazzi, F. $q (Ferdinando), $d 1746-1845. $t Sonatas, $m organs (2), $r C major
   100 $a Huybrechts, Albert, $d 1899-1938. $t Suites, $m piano (Sketches)
 
 added fields:
   382 $a violins, violas, cello
   382 $a organs (2)
   382 $a piano
 

383 field

383 fields (Numerical Designation of Musical Work) list the number associated with the musical work (3):

 
 original field:
    100 $a Callhoff, Herbert, $d 1933-
    240 $a Quartets, strings, $n no. 2
  
 added field:
    383 $a no. 2
 

In this example, the 240 $m is mapped to 383 $a to denote the Numeric Designation of Musical Work.

384 field

384 fields (Key) help to differentiate between identical musical works, but in different keys tonally (4):

 
 original field:
    100 $a Johann Joseph Ranier Rudolph, $c Erzherzog von Oesterreich.
    240 $a Sonatas, clarinet, piano, $n op. 2, $r A major
  
 added fields:
    383 $a op. 2
    384 $a A major
 

In this example, the 240 $r is mapped to 384 $a to denote the Key.

Parenthetical information is typically discarded when mapping to 384 fields:

 
 original fields:
   100 $a Dowland, John, $d 1563?-1626. $t Galliards, $m lute, $n P. 31, $r G minor
   100 $a Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus, $d 1756-1791. $t Requiem, $n K. 626, $r D minor (Süssmayr)
   100 $a Torelli, Giuseppe, $d 1658-1709. $t Solos, $m violins (2), $r D minor (Ms. British Library. Additional 64965, no. 9(a))
 
 added fields:
   384 $a G minor
   384 $a D minor
   384 $a D minor
