006 Additional material characteristics. Optional as needed
Use this optional field when a collection has substantial characteristics of a form of material that is additional to the main one entered in LDR/06. It is like an extra >008 field (>008 being non-repeatable) and allows for additional searching by format.
For example, the archivist might use it to capture the fact that an otherwise textual manuscript collection contains a significant amount of drawings. It is recommended that an 006 be added when you have a series of materials not represented in the 008, or if you find the bulk substantial enough to mention the type in the >300 field.

| (06) | Type of date | b | B.C. date involved | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| i | Inclusive dates of a collection; If the inclusive dates are represented by a single year, that date is given in both places. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| k | Range of years of bulk of collection. While allowable, this code should be used only rarely in fixed fields. Use, for example when bulk dates are 1934-1935 with one extra date of 1971. Inclusive dates would be 1934-1971 but it would be better to code for searching the bulk dates. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| n | Dates unknown | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| q | Questionable date. This code is really for single items, not for collections. See single-item manual for additional information. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| s | Single date. This code is really for single items, not for collections. See single-item manual for additional information. See also “i” above | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (07-10) | Date 1 | NOTE: The value in (06) and the date(s) in (07-10) and (11-14) are determined by the date in the $$f subfield of the >245 field. Date 1 is “uuuu” if you have entered “n” in (06). Date 2 is entered only if you have entered “i” or “k” in (06); otherwise it is “uuuu” (use ‘u’ for uncertain digits in dates). Examples are:

(15-17) | Place of publication, production, or execution | mau | A two- or three-character alphabetic code indicates the place of publication, production, or execution.
