Things Difficult or Impossible to Do With Our Data
A related problem is that there's no good way to be sure if a 7xx IS an analytic in the first place. If second indicator is 2, it is. If second indicator is blank, there's no way to tell. And oddly it's not even possible for the second indicator indicate "definitely is not an analytic".
 
== Display of 7xx in general ==
 
In addition to the above problem with 7xx analytics in particular, 7xx's provide an even more general problem. They might be a uniform title for work cataloged (I can't figure out in what circumstances they'd be this, normally the uniform title is in 140, but apparently sometimes it's in a 730. serials?). They might be a 'citation' (controlled heading) to a related work. They might be an analytic. They might be something else entirely. Is there any way to know what it is? Got me. Without knowing what it is, it's hard to display it appropriately for the user.
