Using the 583 field for Retention Commitments

EAST requires retention partners to record their retention commitments in a 583 field following the OCLC's Shared Print Metadata Guidelines. The example below is for a monograph record. See also the 583 field for Serials/Journals. See also the Introduction to Marc 583 video, or the presentation slides.

Here is a sample for a Colby College monograph:
