Editor’s Note: This is a very odd case. There are preexisting records in the Catalog of Government Publications for both the electronic and print versions. But the default display for the “electronic” item shows no means of web access. Only when you view the record in MARC format do you see a weblink for http://marinedebris.noaa.gov/marinedebris101/ActivBk_pop.html. There is no PURL.
So, we’re going to count this both as a “false positive” (i.e. GPO cataloged this) AND as an “explanation needed” because we don’t understand why GPO would hide the URL for a record clearly labeled “online resource.” Any ideas?

This title does seem to be an odd case, since field 005 suggests that this record was created in November 2008 and not updated after it was apparently accepted into the FDLP by acquisitions staff.
The URL doesn’t display in CGP due to a typo: the 856 40 coding is fine but subfield u should have been used for the URL instead of subfield a.

Field 955 is locally defined. ACQ and BCS suggest that this title was found to be within scope of the FDLP by GPO acquisitions staff (who assigned the item and class numbers) and passed to bibliographic control staff to complete the record.

Hi John, thanks for stopping by and explaining the difference between the a and u subfields in the 856 field. Thanks also for demystifying the 955 field.
