899 - Special use codes for Project MUSE, JSTOR titles, and other collections. Field 899 (an RLIN defined local uniform title series added entry) is used for the online version of certain serials available through providers like Project MUSE, as well as locally defined collections. The 899 should also be in the "keywords" field of the library gateway database (see below). The table below lists the 899 fields currently in use.

975 - Genre. Include genre designations from the list provided, each in a separate 975 field. Use the genre terms below as indications of the form of the resource, not what it contains or is about. Multiple genre terms will seldom be used. It is appropriate to use the genre terms "Full text" and "Indexes" for full text resources that are accessed through an index (e.g. ABI-Inform). Full text resources that contain, for example, maps, should have the sole genre term "Full text".
| Audio-visual | Consists primarily of non-textual images, sound files, video clips, or other digital multimedia formats. Text or numeric data may accompany the material but should not be the primary focus. For example, "Louis Agassiz Fuertes ornithological artwork" is an audio-visual resource but "Britannica online" is not. |
|---|---|
| Catalogs | Consists of listings of objects, such as merchandise, art objects, products, publications, collectors' items, technical equipment, etc., that have been produced, that are available or located at particular places, or that occur on a particular market, often systematically arranged with descriptive details, prices, etc., accompanying each entry. "RLIN" is an example of a catalog. |
| Full text | Consists of the complete text of a work or collection of works. Can be used for original works produced in electronic format or print works converted to electronic format. Do not consider as full text electronic versions of print indexes and abstracts produced as databases unless the resource includes the complete text of some or all of the materials indexed. In addition, do not treat as full text those resources which enable users to order delivery of materials online (such as UnCover and Dissertation Abstracts) if the full text of those materials is not immediately accessible at a user's desktop. The JSTOR journal, "Ecology", is an example of a full text resource. |
| Indexes | Consists of comprehensive alphabetical or numerical listings of names, places, or topics found in materials published in a specific field of knowledge. The "MLA Bibliography" and "ERIC" are examples of indexes. |
| Numeric data | Consists of non-textual data reflecting real or measured quantities, often in a file format which permits statistical manipulation. Do not consider as numeric data titles which use numeric values solely as name or location designations, such as accession or inventory numbers, publication years, or call numbers. The "United States Census of Population and Housing" is an example of numeric data. |
| Spatial data | Consists of spatially referenced data which can be manipulated using geographic information systems. Spatial data reflects information which can have geographic locations or characteristics in many subject areas. For example, "TIGER/Line Census Files" are spatial data. |
