Default Mappings

MARC-to-Instance default mapping now includes the following coverage for Subject type and Subject source.

Subject type default mappings

Subject Type mapping is based on the 6xx field used for subject details in a MARC record (e.g. =650  \0$aShort stories).
Default mappings are as follows:

  • 600 - Personal name

  • 610 - Corporate name

  • 611 - Meeting name

  • 630 - Uniform title

  • 647 - Named event

  • 648 - Chronological term

  • 650 - Topical term

  • 651 - Geographic name

  • 653 - Uncontrolled

  • 654 - Faceted Topical Terms

  • 655 - Genre/Form

  • 656 - Occupation

  • 657 - Function

  • 658 - Curriculum Objective

  • 662 - Hierarchical Place Name

  • 688 - Type of Entity Unspecified

Subject source default mappings

Subject source mapping is based on the value, 0 through 7, of the 2nd indicator in the subject line of a MARC record (e.g. =650  \0$aShort stories).
Default mappings are as follows:

  • 0 - Library of Congress Subject Headings

  • 1 - Library of Congress Children’s and Young Adults' Subject Headings

  • 2 - Medical Subject Headings

  • 3 - National Agriculture Library subject authority file

  • 4 - Source not specified

  • 5 - Canadian Subject Headings

  • 6 - Répertoire de vedettes-matière

  • 7 - Source specified in subfield $2 *

*Note: When 2nd indicator 7 is present, the system will look to match the value in subfield 2 with a corresponding custom Subject source as noted in Settings > Inventory.

  • For example, if the subject line is =655  \7$aDetective and mystery fiction.$2fast, and Inventory settings contains a custom Subject source of Name = Faceted Application of Subject Terminology & Code = fast, then the Subject source for the resulting Instance will be “Faceted Application of Subject Terminology”.

  • If no match for the $2 value is found in Subject source settings, then the Subject source field of the resulting Instance will be blank.

Settings

Subject type and Subject source options can be controlled from the Inventory area of the Settings module.
Please note , -- FOLIO users will need the following permissions in order to make adjustments to Subject type & Subject source settings:

  • Settings (Inventory): Create, edit, delete subject types

  • Settings (Inventory): Create, edit, delete subject sources
