Bug ID: 34687
Summary: Displaying multiple 264 to show publication history
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: 21.11
Hardware: PC
OS: Windows
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low
Component: MARC Bibliographic data support

Display all 264 regardless of value of first indicator
The first indicators for 264 are currently defined (MARC21 website) as:
# - Not applicable/No information provided/Earliest
2 - Intervening
3 - Current/Latest
In Koha (according to a patch from Bug 14734), first indicator = 3 trumps all
other options and actually suppresses all other 264, which, if you are using
the indicators properly, removes most of the publication history. This is very
unhelpful, particularly in journals records.
If I want to have all the previous publication history displayed, then I need
to code the first indicator of the most recent publisher as something other
than 3 (which is technically wrong) so that I don't loose the previous
publication info. This is really counter-intuitive. The indicators should be
used for their intended purpose rather than as a suppression tool.
Could this patch be reversed so that the indicators function to display the
complete publication history?
