Sound recordings

MARC tag 1XX

In records for popular or traditional music sound recordings, if the principal performer is recorded in a 7XX field, change to the appropriate 1XX field. (Don’t forget: when there’s a 1XX in a record, the 245 should have a 1st indicator 1).

 Note: This is a local edit only. Do not make this change to master records in OCLC.
