The authority record that will finally appear is in what they call the "tape format" of a MARC authority record. There are "leader" fields and the fixed field information is unformatted in an 008 field. This is similar to the form of bibliographic records that are found in MARCFILIST or on CLCAT. Below is a brief description of the significant fields you will see. For more detailed information about fields of authority records, see Chapter 5 of the OCLC Authority Manual.
