Re: Reports and MARC Record Fields

[Elizabeth Thomsen <et@xxxxxxxxxx>]

And when you're searching, sorting or listing, you don't need to use the 
indicators if they're not relevant.

We always train people to know how to use a few basic MARC fields in 
Create Lists, even if they don't have any other knowledge of MARC.  The 
most common use for us is to be able to list just the title and 
subtitle, instead of the whole title field, when doing booklists, etc.
