I just wanted to mention that I created a page on the EG wiki for RDA
issues, and I added a section for post recommended steps to customize
older EGsystems to work with RDA. In case those that have already
updated their older systems had a moment to share the steps they took.

I feel like I am asking a lot of questions, but we are kind of new
to this…
RDA tags 264, 336, 337, and 338 appear in our MARC displays, but not
in our OPAC displays. My assumption is that this is a configuration
issue and not related to the fact that we are still at 2.1. Am I
correct in this assumption or this yet another reason to look
forward to our upgrade?
This is mostly a configuration issue, as ultimately one can have any
MARC tag you wish displayed in the OPAC by customizing the TPAC
templates. That also holds true for the older JSPac available in
2.1 and earlier, though (arguably) with a little more effort required.
However, the stock TPAC templates in 2.4.0 do explicitly add support
for grabbing and displaying publication information from the 264, if
present.
Regards,
Galen
