The extended ASCII character set, Latin-1, used in the old MARC systems was
always something that was neglected to get mentioned and not at all obvious.
Now that more systems are using UNICODE it should be less of a problem, all
depends on your system and if you still have legacy data.

Yes, it is different. All the different character sets someone could
bump into in the library, some not used elsewhere, should be mentioned.
I love and agree with that sig :-)
