Information:
The 246 tag contains varying forms of the title
associated with the item that is different from the
information in the 245 subfield a. For an item that
includes several works but does not have a
collective title, the 246 tag is used only for titles
related to the title in subfield a of the 245 field.
The analytical titles for the other works are
entered in the 740 tag.
Only subfield codes that are most applicable are
included here. Subfield a contains the title being
traced/indexed. Subfield n contains the name
designation used in a title for sequencing. Subfield
p contains the name designation used in further
defining a title.
The 246 tag does not have any indicators for
non-filing characters so initial articles are generally
not entered unless the intent is to file on the article.
