Don't worry about it. It will line up correctly in your local computer
files.

Subject: alignment in authority records in OCLC

 

Dear group,

 

I am having difficulty getting the alignment of Hebrew and mixed
Hebrew/romanized fields correct in authority records in OCLC.  If I
uncheck the Align Right under View in the menu then the 670 aligns left,
but so does the Hebrew 400.  If I leave the Align Right checked then the
Hebrew 400 is aligned right, but so is the 670.  If I leave the Align
Right under View selected but then  unselect Right-to-Left Reading Order
from the  right mouse button menu for the 670 field, then it aligns on
the left correctly, but as soon as I save the record the 670 flips again
to right alignment.  

 

Has anyone had better success in getting the correct alignment?

 

Thank you,
