Jason, 

This isn't an indicator problem. Evergreen often drops the correct punctuation 
in the 245 field. It also inserts a colon within the title if the filing 
indicator is incorrect. But this is a different issue. I've noticed that 245 
punctuation is not often retained but have not had the time to troubleshoot to 
see if there is a common denominator since, as Cynthia says, this is not 
mission critical.

Cynthia, 

Could you double check your indicators for the 245 field? There's a 
convoluted reason this happens involving how we use the MODS format 
for display, and I think the problem should be going away at some 
point in 1.6 with the new bib template infrastructure. But in the 
meantime, tweaking your indicators should help in some cases.
