Product form description

If product form codes do not adequately describe the product, a short text description may be added to give a more detailed specification of the product form. The field is optional and non-repeating. Although this element was originally included to allow the number and type of pieces contained in a multiple product to be stated, as in the example below, the correct method of describing mixed media products in Release 2.1 is to use two or more occurrences of the <ContainedItem> composite to give a properly structured specification of each media type.

Format Variable-length text, suggested maximum length 200 characters.
Reference name <ProductFormDescription>
Short tag <b014>
Example <b014>3 volumes with 2 audiocassettes</b014>

This tag may be included in the following composites:
