Revision as of 17:04, 24 June 2016

When adding a new catalog record or making significant updates to an extant record, catalogers add their initials to a MARC 583 Action Note. (Before December 2014, initials were instead added to the 852 location field in a subfield ‡x.) These notes are only available on the "MARC View" tab in Hamnet.

In addition to the personal initials below, you may also encounter the abbreviations CIN and OID; these stand for Cataloger Initials and Operator ID, which are no longer used .
