Literature of two or more languages
If 2 languages, use number coming first in 820-890 , unless there are different instructions.
eg, use 880 (not 870 ) for Greek and Latin.
If more than two languages are involved from a language family, use the most specific number that will contain all the languages. eg 830 for English, German, and Dutch, since they are all Germanic languages.
Do not use 820-890 for broad groupings such as Indo-European or for unralated literature. For example, use 808 for collections covering English, French, and Russian (all Indo-European languages), 809 for criticism, 800 for a combination of collections and criticism.
If any one language is predominant, class with that language.

Plates
It is OK to call plates ill but not all ill. are plates.
eg
300 # # $a [xiv], 271 p., [8] p. of plates : $b ill., ports. ; $c 22 cm.
In the 008 field , because all the illustrations are plates:-
--plates
--portraits
300 $b
coats of arms, facsim., forms, geneal. tables, maps , music, plans, portraits.
If none of these is adequate use another term as appropriate, eg.
computer drawings, cross sections, etc.
This means that if graphs are a important you can use it in the $b field.
300 # # $a .... $b GRAPHS ARE NOT ILL. ...

008/23 coding
To quote from the MARC21 manual:
008
23 Form of item
r Regular print reproduction
Code r indicates that the item is a reproduction in regular eye-readable print, such as a photocopy.
008/23 = r
500 b/b/ ‡aPhoto-reproduction of 1963 edition
008/07-10 (Date 1)
When cataloguing a continuing resource, 008 positions 07-10 contain the beginning date of the item. If the item bears both a date of publication and an indication of the period covered by the contents (chronological designation) the latter is used in the Date 1 field. When the beginning date covers more than one calendar year, use the last named year, e.g.
008/07-10 = 1989
245 10 ‡aAnnual report for the year ...
260 ‡aNew Delhi :‡bThe Commission,‡c1989-
362 0 ‡a1988-89-
