This field
contains varying forms of the title of a work, whether they appear on
the item or not.
Tag 246 is
a repeatable field, so several variant forms of the title may be added.
The
following
subfields may be used in tag 246,
in the order shown:
$i Display
text
$a Title proper
$n Number of part or section
$p Title of part or section
$b Remainder of title
Do not place a period
at the end of field 246.
Omit
initial
articles (The, Le, etc.) from the variant title recorded in tag 246.
When misspelled words followed by [sic] or [i.e.] are present in tag 245, consider adding a Variant Title for titles with corrected spelling. The second indicator in tag 246 is blank.
When the title of an
addendum varies significantly from the title of the main document,
consider adding a Variant Title consisting of the title of the main
document followed by the subtitle addendum. The second indicator in tag
246 is blank.
When a more complete and distinctive variant of the title recorded in tag 245 appears elsewhere than the title page, consider adding a Variant Title in tag 246. Specify the source of the Variant Title by using the correct second indicator.
Always record a Variant
Title when the first word in the title proper is a number, either
written as a numeral or spelled out, providing the other form of the
number. The second indicator in tag 246 is blank.

It is generally not necessary to make added
title entries (246) for parallel
titles of multilingual lists of participants when the only portion of the title
that is multilingual is "List of participants" or "Provisional list of
participants".
Example:
191
$a TD/B/C.II/MEM.1/Misc.1
245
10 $a Provisional list of participants : $b United Nations Conference on Trade
and Development, Trade and Development Board, Investment, Enterprise and
Development Commission, Multi-Year Expert Meeting on Enterprise Development
Policies and Capacity-Building in Science, Technology and Innovation (STI), Geneva, 20-22 January 2009 = Liste provisoire

UNOG practice:
Consider recording a Variant Title (tag 246) when one of the first five words in the title proper is
- an Arabic or Roman numeral or spelled-out number;
- an ampersand or other symbol;
- an abbreviation
with the corresponding other version in tag 246, if it is thought that some users might reasonably search by the other form. The second indicator in the above cases is blank.
Examples (UNOG practice):
245 10 $a Basel II : $b the revised framework of June 2004
246 3_ $a Basel 2 : $b the revised framework of June 2004
246 3_ $a Basel Two : $b the revised framework of June 2004
245 10 $a Election of nine members of the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination to replace those whose terms will expire…
246 3_ $a Election of 9 members of the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination to replace those whose terms will expire…
UNOG practice:
If the first word is a single year or span of years in Arabic numerals, do not add tag 246 for the year spelled out (it is unlikely that users will search by the spelled-out form of years).
Example (UNOG practice):
245 10 $a 2009 competitive examination for recruitment to the Professional category…
Variant title is not added:
246 3 _ $a Two thousand nine competitive examination for recruitment to the Professional category...
For items
including several works but lacking a collective title, tag 246
is used only for titles related to the title selected as the title
proper, usually the first work named in the chief source of
information. Titles related to other works are recorded in tag 740.
Titles of
inserts, parts of an item, annexes, supplements, etc., that are
included in the item but not catalogued separately, are recorded in tag
740 (Added Entry - Uncontrolled
Related/Analytical Title).
If a variant
title begins with an article in tag 245 (The, Le,
etc.) the article is omitted in tag 246.
[Prior to Dec. 2003, variant titles for UN documents were recorded in tag 740 rather than
in tag 246]
First indicator
The value of the first indicator in tag 246 in UNBIS
is always 3.
Second indicator
The second indicator specifies what type of varying title is recorded
in tag 246 (parallel title, cover title, running
title, etc.), so it is important to record the correct indicator value. When displayed as a note, an introductory phrase will be
automatically generated based on the second indicator value. If the second indicator value is a blank ( _ ), no display phrase will be generated. See INDICATORS for a complete list and
description of indicator values.
The default second indicator value in Horizon is 1. Since
indicator value 1 displays as the phrase Parallel title, staff must be careful to change the indicator value if the variant title recorded in field 246 is
not a parallel title.
The second indicator value 2 should only be used for a single
issue of a periodical that bears a distinctive title for the issue in addition
to the title of the periodical.
If none of the display phrases generated by second
indicator values are considered appropiate, enter a blank ( _ ) as the second indicator value. An appropriate display phrase may be
recorded in subfield $i, preceding the variant title that is transcribed in subfield $a:
246
3_ $i Title on p. 3: $a Variant title
246
3_ $i Title from disk
cover: $a Variant title
246
3_ $i Cover and spine
title: $a Variant title
In order to display a
variant title preceded only by the field name Variant title, without specifying a particular type or source for
the title, enter a blank ( _ ) as the second indicator and enter the variant
title in subfield $a. When a variant title is simply an alternate view of
the title in tag 245 (for example, a variant title beginning with a
number spelled out when the title in tag 245 begins with a numeral),
enter a blank ( _ ) as the second indicator.
