Record Content: Notes
Many records have a line or several lines of text on the bottom half of the slip that does not conveniently fit into any other categories. The vendor was asked to transcribe all of this text and code with the <n> tag. If there was a logical paragraph break between one note and another, each line was tagged separately. There is no limit to the number of <n> tags in a record. In the full schema, the <n> tag will be parsed to control for different kinds of notes. This section may be expanded as we move through Encoding Level 1, but thus far we have identified ten distinct types of notes: cross-reference, see-reference, content, collection, auction, quote, z-reference, enclosure, subject, and internal. Examples will be shown as we work through encoding.
