Information:
The 037 Source of Acquisition tag of the MARC
bibliographic format contains the stock number, names
and addresses, and terms of availability for the item
described in the MARC record. The 037 tag has been
used primarily to record subscription information for
serial items, but the tag may be used with any type of
material. The information in this tag is used by the
librarians and usually does not display on the OPAC.
When the item has a stock number, it is recorded in
subfield a. Subfield b contains the name of a
publisher, distributor, or vendor. The address, phone
number, or other contact information may also be
included in this subfield. Subfield c contains the
terms of availability, usually the price for a serial
subscription. For non-serial items the price is
recorded in the 020 tag (International Standard Book
Number) or the 024 tag (Other Standard Number).
