Hi Jim,
Thanks for catching that typo! I had been thinking "prescribe," as in
writing a rule to be followed. I'll take another look at that paragraph
and try to find a way to make the meaning clearer. Essentially, the idea
is that you can create an authority control set that defines for
Evergreen the tags and subfields that you want to appear in authority
records.
More documentation on authority control sets is available here and may
also be of interest to you:

Thanks,
Sally

Hi,
I found this paragraph in the release notes for version 2.2.0 and I'm
not sure what "proscribed" is supposed to mean here. (Emphasis below
is mine.) None of the meanings that I know seem to fit the sentence.
If "proscribed" is not the right word, what is the sentence trying to
say? Does it mean that the authority records can be overridden by
control sets?
_http://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/release/RELEASE_NOTES_2_2_0.html_
2.6. Cataloging
2.6.1. Authority Control Sets
*The tags and subfields that display in authority records in Evergreen
are proscribed by control sets*. The Library of Congress control set
is the default control set in all versions of Evergreen. However, in
Evergreen release 2.2, you can create customized control sets for
authority records, and you can define thesauri and authority fields
for these control sets.
