Hi there. Thanks again for your time, I really appreciate it.
I realized that omitting '<leader>' from .marcxml file is causing the issue with encoding, also in bibliographic. I did a little bit of reverse engineering to try to keep as simple as possible my bibliographic and authority templates. I will restore that XML key to my templates and keep testing. I will post my results in this thread for the records. Cheers.
