VARIABLE FIELDS
Tag  Definition Treatment
006 Fixed-length Data Elements--Additional Materials Characteristics Input only when book or microform is accompanied by non-book material which is substantial enough to be considered primary material (could be cataloged as a separate item).  Follow the fixed field guidelines for the format appropriate to the accompanying material.

See OCLC Bibliographic Formats and Standards:
 http://www.oclc.org/oclc/bib/006.htm

See UCSD Policies for Format Integration Implementation:
  http://tpot.ucsd.edu/Cataloging/Formats/fitfrept.html
007 Phys. Desc. Fixed Field Input for preservation microforms and for computer files that accompany books. 

See OCLC Bibliographic Formats and Standards:
 http://www.oclc.org/oclc/bib/007intro.htm

See UCSD Policies for Format Integration Implementation:
 http://tpot.ucsd.edu/Cataloging/Formats/fitfrept.html
010  LC Control Number Input if available when inputting exact LC copy (NUC or CIP).
015  National Bibliography No. Input if available when inputting exact LC copy only.
018  Copyright Article Fee Code Input if applicable.
020  ISBN

Input if available.

NOTE: OCLC will automatically generate additional 10 or 13-digit forms upon validation/export.
040  Catalog Source Default = CUS |c CUS.  Change to DLC |c CUS when inputting exact LC copy.
041  Language Code Input if applicable.
043 Geographic Area Code Input. 
See OCLC Bibliographic Formats and Standards:
 http://www.oclc.org/oclc/bib/043.htm
050  LC Call Number Input if available when inputting exact LC copy only.

Use of Multiple Call Numbers:
Multiple call numbers (090/090 fields in member input; or 050 0/050 14 fields in member input of LC copy and LC minimal level records) are allowed in these circumstances only:
a. Literature numbers vs. PZ numbers for fiction.
b. Bibliography number vs. subject.
c. LC minimal number vs. member call number.
d. Classed together vs. classed separately call numbers for monographic series.

For example, if LC NAF treatment differs from UCSD treatment in the series authority record, i.e., LC chooses to class together a monographic series and UCSD classes it separately, you may add a second call number in an 090. In all other cases, only one 090 should appear in the record.

When inputting retrospective LC cataloging with a call number and UCSD chooses to use a different LC based call number, add the second call number in a second 050 field so that both call numbers remain in the OLUC. Code the first indicator "1" and the second indicator "4." Remember that input of the 050 automatically deletes any 090. 
051  LC Copy, Issue, Offprint Statement Input if available when inputting exact LC copy only.
060 National Library of Medicine Call Number Input if available when inputting exact NLM copy only.
