Dear Doug, Thanks for your help. In fact, I had seen the documentation available at the LOC site before sending my query. Therefore, my doubt still persists. The documentation does not clearly indicate whether the date of transaction is the date on which the record was modified/updated or this is the date on which circulation related transaction was made. I solicit clarifications from the members of the forum. thanks, G.K.Manjunath Chief Librarian IGIDR, Mumbai, India On Thu, 26 Jul 2012, Doug Dearden wrote:

Dear Members,
I have question regarding the content in the field 005 ( MARC tag).
Is this the field in which issue and return date of a document is recorded or date on which the record was modified/updated/corrected ?
There is another field 008, which stores the date on which the recorded was added to the database.
pl clarify.
thanks in advance,
