Records for book chapters should be created if the chapters are self-contained, often written by different authors. Monographs should not be split into individual chapters.

If you create a book chapter record, make sure that there is also a corresponding book record.

If the individual chapter has a DOI or HDL, this goes in 0247_a with 0247_2:DOI or 0247_2:HDL.

Curate the authors/editors. Use these general instructions for curating HEP titles.

Publication information goes in the 260 field, with subfield ‘a’ as place of publication, subfield ‘b’ the publisher, and subfield ‘c’ the year of publication.

Number of pages goes in 300__a and abstract (if available) goes in 520__a.

To connect the chapter to the book record, add either the ISBN of the book in 773__z, or if this isn’t available add the recid of the book record in 773__0. The page range of the chapter should go in 773__c (e.g. 773__c$$25-45).

A link to the online version goes in 8564_u. If the chapter is open access, you upload it by adding the link to the FFT field.
