2.1 USE ATTRIBUTES (TYPE = 1)
A Use attribute specifies an access point (e.g., corporate name, personal
name, title, subject).
The Use attributes are given below in two separate tables. Table 1 is
similar to the listing in Z39.50-1995, Appendix 3, ATR: Attribute Sets,
in that the attributes are in order by their values and the same names
that appear in the Appendix appear in the left column of Table 1. The
right column of Table 1 contains a reference to the name of the
attribute that is used in Table 2. Table 2 rearranges the Use
attributes alphabetically by group name in an attempt to bring
similar Use attributes together. The groups are somewhat arbitrary;
no rigorous classification of the attributes has been attempted.
In Table 2, all attribute names are followed by their values, a brief
definition or description, and tag values of representative USMARC
bibliographic format fields that would contain data that could be
described in the search by using the attribute. Whenever possible,
definitions are taken from the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules or the
USMARC Format for Bibliographic Data as these are the guidelines that
are used by a significant number of libraries for formulating data. In
Table 2, the notation '$<alpha>' following a USMARC tag refers to a
subfield of the named field. The notation 'i<number>' following a
USMARC tag refers to values of the second indicator in the named
field; when the second indicator of the field has the value
<number>, the data in the field is associated with that Use
attribute.

TABLE 2: USE ATTRIBUTES (CLASSIFIED AND DEFINED)
Use Value Definition USMARC tag(s)
-------------------- ----- ------------------------------ ------------------
Abstract 62 An abbreviated, accurate 520
representation of a work,
usually without added
interpretation or criticism.
Any 1016 The record is selected if there
exists a Use attribute that the
target supports (and considers
appropriate - see note 1) such
that the record would be
selected if the target were to
substitute that attribute.
Notes:
(1) When the origin uses 'any' the intent is that the target
locate records via commonly used access points. The target
may define 'any' to refer to a selected set of Use
attributes corresponding to its commonly used access points.
(2) In set terminology: when Any is the Use attribute, the set
of records selected is the union of the sets of records
selected by each of the (appropriate) Use attributes that
the target supports.
Anywhere 1035 The record is selected if the
term value (as qualified by the
other attributes) occurs anywhere
in the record.
Note: A target might choose to support 'Anywhere' only in
combination with specific (non-Use) attributes. For example, a
target might support 'Anywhere' only in combination with the
Relation attribute 'AlwaysMatches' (see below), to locate all
records in a database.
Notes on relationship of Any and Anywhere:
(1) A target may support Any but not Anywhere, or vice versa, or
both. However, if a target supports both, then it should
exclude 'Anywhere' from the list of Use attributes
corresponding to 'Any' (if it does not do so, then the set
of records located by 'Any' will be a superset of those
located by 'Anywhere').
(2) A distinction between the two attributes may be informally
expressed as follows: 'anywhere' might result in more
expensive searching than 'any'; if the target (and origin)
support both 'any' and 'anywhere', if the origin uses 'Any'
(rather than 'Anywhere') it is asking the target to locate
the term only if it can do so relatively inexpensively.
Author-name 1003 A personal or corporate author, 100, 110, 111, 400
or a conference or meeting 410, 411, 700, 710,

title or a conference or meeting 111/2XX, subfields
name, and the title of the $a & $t in
item. (No subject name following: 400,410,
headings are included.) The 411, 700, 710, 711,
syntax of the name-title 800, 810, 811
combination is up to the
target, unless used with the
Structure attribute Key (see
below).

subject headings are not
included.)
Author-name-personal 1004 A person's real name, 100, 400, 700, 800

personal name subject headings
are not included.)
Author-Title-Subject 1036 An author or a title or a 1XX, 2XX, 4XX,
subject. 6XX, 7XX, 8XX
Note: When the Use attribute is Author-name-and-title (1000)
the term contains both an author name and a title. When the
Use attribute is Author-Title-Subject (1036), the term
contains an author name or a title or a subject.
Body of text 1010 Used in full-text searching to
indicate that the term is to
be searched only in that
portion of the record that the
target considers the body of
the text, as opposed to some
other discriminated part such
as a headline, title, or
abstract.

judgment in making that selection. When 'Any' is used,
there is no selection process involved; the target is to
apply all of the (appropriate) supported Use attributes.
The origin is asking the target to make a choice of access
points.

vice versa, or both. If the target supports both, when the
origin uses 'Server-choice', the target might choose 'Any';
however, it might choose any other Use attribute.
