IdRef system preference enables a Unimarc-only functionality. Authors
fields contain in $3 subfield a PPN, an unique identifier in IdRef a
French national authority file, similar to VIAF.

KohaLa, the Koha French users association, has designed a revamped
implementation of IdRef in Koha. The goal is to improve the visual and
to add a functionality.

- Visually — The author publications list is currently displayed in
  an old fashion dialog box. It uses greybox library, which is
  deprecated. See bug 8290. The list is displayed in a
  distinct tab of holdings block.

- Functionality — The title in the list are searched in Koha local
  catalog. So it's possible to mark titles locally available and link
  to them. PPN are searched directly in Elasticsearch for efficiency.
  Koha IdRef users are academic libraries or higher education school. So
  Zebra support is not required for them.
