Brief Citation Form

Both versions of this token replace the [fieldspec] value with data located in the specified fields. The <!--{fieldspec:[fieldspec]}--> displays the fields as text, whereas the <!--{linkfieldspec:[fieldspec]}--> displays fields as a HTML hyperlink to the full record display for the bibliographic record associated with the full citation.

The [fieldspec] can be specified with both fixed-length fields and variable-length fields.

• If fixed-length field tags are used in this token, the meaning of the tag is displayed, replacing the token. Labels are not included in this display.
• Variable-length fields are specified using their field tag and optionally a MARC tag, subfields, and indicators. If a variable-length field is specified by the field spec token, only the data from the defined field is displayed in place of the token. Labels are not included in this display. For example:     

<!--{fieldspec:Vbp260:a}-->

This will cause only subfield 'a' of the p260 field to display. If the variable-length field specified does not exist in the record, no data displays to the user.

To specify fields, see Field Specification Formatting.

There are four special variable-length field spec tags used to control which fields are included in the display:

For example:

<!--{linkfieldspec:VbT}-->

In some record browse entries the indexed title differs from the "best" title. The T option enables the Brief Citation to include both the indexed t-tagged field enclosed in quotes and the "best" title as a hyperlink to the full record display

If the ICON_BOOKCART Web option is defined, the system wraps each brief citation in <FORM> tags and this token displays the text or image defined in the ICON_BOOKCART Web option. Clicking on the image or text set in the Web option submits the form and adds the bibliographic record to the user's list of saved records
If the ICON_BOOKCART Web option is not defined, this token displays a form input checkbox. The entire brief citation table (containing all the brief citations on that page), including the Save Marked Records and Save All on Page buttons, are wrapped in <FORM> tags. Users can save marked records by using one of the three following methods:

• The user must mark the checkbox and click the Save Marked Records button to save a record to the list of saved records.
• If an image is offered for the record, the user can click the image to save the record to a list of saved records.
• If the user wants to save all records on the page, click the Save All on Page button.

If this token is present, the system checks whether or not the user has saved the indicated record. If so, the system interprets markup between this token and the associated <--{else}--> token. If not, the system interprets markup between the <--{else}--> token and the associated <!--{xif}--> token. The system can mark items in a book cart by using a setup similar to the following:

<tr class="marked">
<!--{else}-->
<tr>
<!--{xif}-->

See Browse Display Classes for information on the .marked style class.

Displays the brief holdings message for the bibliographic record. The message varies depending upon the number of copies available and the number of locations with available copies. The message conditions are:

Displays a hold message depending on the following conditions:

<!--{reslink}-->

The system replaces this token with the value of the link to any associated electronic resources, based on the following criteria:

• If the ICON_856LINK Web option is defined, the system replaces the token with the value of the Web option.
• ICON_856LINK Web option iss not defined, the system replaces the token with an "Electronic Resources" text link.

Clicking on either the image or the text link takes the user to the URL defined in the u subfield in the first 865 MARC field found in the associated bibliographic record or a different MARC field URL source specified in the LOCALLINK_TAG Web option. If there are no 856 fields in the bibliographic record, the system displays a &nbsp; (non-breaking space).
