Hi Mary, Perhaps, this is where BibTemplate may come to the rescue to customize the OPAC details display of the 856 field?
See: http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/1.6/draft/html/BibTemplate.html http://open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=opac:bibtemplate http://www.open-ils.org/dokuwiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=advocacy:bibtemplate-scott.pdf for details.

The display of multiple 856s will be ugly and confusing to the library patrons. Thanks for the reply.

If we have more than one library subscribed to an e-resource, can we add multiple subfields 9 to a single 856 to display the bib in each of those libraries' public catalogs? You can add multiple 856 tags. IIRC they are repeatable. Also, in checking the code, it looks like you're expected to add multiple 856s, one for each holding library. Also, in 2.0 at least, the shortname can go in a subfield 9, w, or n.

But my problem is that the MARC record is not displaying at all in the public catalog. I'm assuming this is because there is no holding record, but perhaps I'm wrong? There are three ways a record can be made visible in the public catalogue: * Set the record source to a transcendent source * Add a copy with a visible status in a visible copy location in a visible library * (As of 1.6) add an 856, first indicator 4, second indicator 0, with a $9 subfield with a value matching a shortname in your search scope If your record isn't displaying in the public catalog, and you have an 856 40 $9 SHORTNAME in the record, then perhaps something else is wrong with the record or your configuration. At this point, without a concrete example, there's not much I can do to help diagnose the problem further. Mary Llewellyn Mary Llewellyn Database Manager Bibliomation, Inc.
