Uri,
Derive a new record.
We are not supposed to touch records that their 040 field subfield "b" is in 
another language then English

Hello,
Forgive me for my ignorance….
I have a title that has only one record in OCLC which was produced by the INL, 
and its obviously in Hebrew. Am I allowed to add respective fields in English 
to that record, or should I derive and create a new record for the same title??
I’m pretty new to cataloging (a little bit more than a year now) and never 
encountered a title which did not have a record that was previously produced in 
the US….

Thanks,

Re: Newbie question... - INL records in Hebrew

[Heidi G Lerner]

Hi Uri,

The language of " descriptive cataloging" is coded in delimiter "b" of the MARC 
040 field. This does not reflect the language of the item being cataloged but 
rather the language of the cataloging agency and cataloging rules. I suspect 
that in the case of the record that you see in OCLC, the language of cataloging 
is Hebrew. In this case you would not use the extant record, but rather would 
create a separate record which OCLC calls a "parallel record."

OCLC has published guidelines on how to handle these records at the following

Best, Heidi Lerner
