CCM13.7. Contents note (Field 500)

13.7.1. When to give (AACR2 12.7B19)
Restrict contents notes to those citing a specific section, insert, or type of contents that is not readily apparent from the title and that is ongoing.
Contents notes in serial records were formerly tagged 520. For current use of field 520, see CCM 13.9.6.
Contents notes for serials are tagged as 500 (not 505). In general, do not supply notes that explain the content of serials (such as the notes commonly supplied for children's books). A title cited in a contents note may be given an added entry (see CCM 7.5.1.).
