When you close the MARC Leader Codes dialog, a message may inform you that
you need to modify the 008 tag. The 008 tag is a fixed-length field and has 40
positions. Positions 18 through 34 are different for each material type. Go to page
272 for instructions on editing the 008 tag, and, if you would like further
information on cataloging non-book materials, see page 353.
