Record Entries
Record entries are preceded by a → character. The system displays brief record data depending on record type, as follows:
| Record Type | Field | Source |
| Bibliographic | Title | Sorting title |
| Location | Up to five Locations descriptions. If there are no assigned Locations variable-length fields, the system displays the value from the Location fixed-length field from the bibliographic record. Note that if the Locations Served associated with your user login matches one (or more) of the bibliographic record’s Locations, those locations appear first in this display. Other locations are then listed in the order in which they appear in the Locations variable-length field in the bibliographic record. |
