Indicators
Indicator 1: none

Subfields
$5 Institution to which the information in this field applies. (O;R)
A code from the Insitution and file codes in heading fields indicates that this institution or authority file uses the name form in $a as a heading form or a preferred from. For backwards compatibility an additional subfield $c holding either a country code or 'XX' is rendered with every subfield $5 by the system. This subfield $c should not be input manually, since the code in subfield $5 is sufficient to identify the institution responsible for the given heading
$a Entry element (M;NR)
Portion of the name used as the entry element in the heading
$b Subdivison (O;R)
$e Non-Sorting part of name (O;NR)
Any part of the entry element, which should be skipped if entry elements are sorted alphabetically.
$r Addition other than names to entry element (O;R)
Insert any additions to the name, that are found in the book.
