Field 510 (Citation/References Note) is used to record the existence of abstracting and indexing services for an item.
For archival materials and visual materials, this field contains information identifying administrative and intellectual controls over the described materials and indicating the degree of control each provides. This usually implies finding aids and similar control materials.
For serials, this field contains a statement of volumes and/or dates covered by cumulative indexes of an item and a statement of location of these indexes. Indexes may be issued as part of an issue of the serial or issued separately.
The note is sometimes displayed and/or printed with an introductory term or phrase that is generated as a display constant based on the first indicator value.
