General remark (March 2020)

Although in the OCLC MARC 21 documentation, the fill characters (|) are not mentioned and other sources say that the fill character is not valid in any bibliographic 007 position, nevertheless we consider these as valid values, because they occur in records in WorldCat and can be selected from dropdown menus in Record Manager.
