SUS Format Integration Task Force
Visual Format summary recommendations
last revised 10/16/97

The proposed recommendation uses 42 labels.

Most changes in labels for this format are included in the Cross-Format summary.

Those of particular interest to this format include:

Label MARC tag: Indicator Display constant
Participant(s) 511: B0 [none]
Participant(s) 511: 2 Presenter
Participant(s) 511: 3 Narrator

The 546 LANGUAGE tag is expected to be very useful for Visual Materials.

FIU wishes to use the 653 tag for controlled terms in its art slide cataloging project, with the label INDEX TERMS. In LTTF, view the Long display (F10) of record# AAA8601. Would other libraries find it useful or harmful if the 653 field displays in the Visual Format? The indexing of 653 is a separate issue -- if a tag is keyword- or MHI-indexed in one format, it must be indexed in all formats. Please comment!

Many of the new tags have been borrowed from the Serials format, including those labeled ALTERNATE TITLE(S), PUBLISHING HISTORY, and RELATED MATERIAL(S).
