Thank you!  This helps me understand why our clients prefer 530 to
776, the provider neutral electronic resource record standard
notwithstanding; 776 produces unwanted hits.  Most of our smaller
clients haven't the ability to change indexing in their OPAC.

RDA's failure to address display and indexing, does little to help us.
