- Include an introductory phrase followed by a colon as necessary when using first indicator "8" ("No display constant generated")
- Follow the Chicago Manual of Style format for bibliographies, i.e., the style guide used in Folger publications. Short version: invert the name of the first author, and separate the main elements with periods, not commas.

- For published engravings of paintings, make a general note instead.
- Field 581 ends with a period unless another mark of punctuation is present.
