--- Comment #64 from Heather <[email protected]> --- Thank you, Katrin! Yes--I was confused, and understand much better now--thank you! I think one reason is that OCLC libraries (like ours) don't have LDR position 19 accessible or displayed (maybe not even used) in their records at all--the Connexion Client software doesn't seem to allow for display or coding of this field. I know it is common for academic libraries to have a bib record on which they order & receive the volumes of a monographic series, and then catalog the volumes of the series on their own bibs, but the relationships in the bib records would be expressed with 7XX linking entry fields. The serial record used for acquisitions is sometimes even suppressed from public display. In the US, typically a record with 490/8XX fields will not have its 8XX field linking to another bib but to an authority record for the series. According to CONSER (Library of Congress) the 830 is an authorized access point (i.e., that must be authority controlled) so points to an authority record, not a bib record. So I'm probably not the best person to try to understand, explain, and help craft documentation for this feature--it sounds like it's more for a non-US cataloging workflow where a volume in a monographic series would have an 8XX pointing to a bib record (rather than carrying a 7XX linking entry field pointing to a bib record). I don't have access to a cataloging system that can show/verify the LDR position 19, so I can't verify that MARC21 coding is correct for this feature to work. I wish I could be more help! --h2 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
