- $4ins to indicate inscription
Example: 700 1__$a White, Andrew Dickson,$d1832-1918.$4fmo
- If provenance includes the phrase "From the Income of a bequest made by__", no provenance note is added to the bib record.
- To record a gift, add a 541 field with the following: Rare Annex copy #: (use original location copy#) Gift of __.
Example: 541__Rare Annex copy 1: Gift of Henry W. Sage.
- In all cases, add the following:
