You are encouraged to consult the course Lessons and Assessments, as well as

professor via email. You MAY NOT consult another person about exam content (such
as other students, librarians, etc.) nor may you post questions about the exam in

Upload the completed document to Canvas by 11:55pm CST on the due date noted
within the Weekly Schedule. Please do not wait until the last minute to upload your
exam.
If you have any technical difficulties that prevent you from submitting the
assignment, email it to the professor's outside email address (which can be found in
the course Syllabus). It will not be counted as late as long as the exam is received in
the professor's inbox by 11:55pm CST the day it is due. However, you may do this
only if you are unable to upload it to Canvas.
Use of templates
The templates provided contain the common MARC fields needed to transcribe
bibliographic data. You do not need to use every field for every record. Leave the
MARC field blank if you do not use it. You do not need to delete it. Please feel free to
add fields as needed (e.g., add an additional 246 for multiple variant title fields.)
Replace the x's in the 5xx fields with the appropriate MARC field code (e.g., change
5xx to 504 for a note on the inclusion of a bibliography). The underscores ( _ )
represent the first (1st) and second (2nd) indicators. Replace the underscore with the
appropriate indicator value where needed. The first (1st) indicator in the 245 field is
provided for you, so please do not change it.
Here is an example of a completed template:

Transcribe the appropriate value for each fixed field, even if it is listed as optional on
the OCLC and LC MARC websites. If a fixed field should be blank, then do not put
anything in the white space next to that field. Do not put n/a, an underscore, or an
equivalent value.
Assume that all of the following items on this exam are books written in English
unless otherwise specified.
If there is a table of contents present, you are expected to transcribe it in the
appropriate MARC field. Transcribe a basic contents note. Do not transcribe an
enhanced content note.
Please transcribe all of your answers on this exam using blue font.
