Obituary: 440
I’m sure we have all heard by now that the Series Statement/Added entry-title field, known to most of us as 440, has died. It is survived by it’s child, the 830, and a sibbling, 490.
All joking aside, the rules seem almost too easy. Basically, use 490, first indicator 1 or 0 just as you always have (copied from the piece) even if it is the same as the 830 (second indicator 0), which you now have to include. Just remember to place a period at the end of the 830, but not the 490!
BEFORE:
