https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=22972 Bug ID: 22972 Summary: Proposal for enriching the bibliographic records with standard identifiers from authority data Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: MARC Bibliographic data support Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: januszop(a)gmail.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Target Milestone: --- Thinking in terms of linked data, it would be of profit to have as much of standard identifiers in the bibliographic data produced by the library as possible. Libraries use authority data coming from official sources (like LoC, SUDOC, etc.) or enrich their locally created authority records with standard identifiers (e.g. viafId, ISNI, Wikipedia). This information is linked to the bibliographic record by the Koha-specific subfield $9 which is illegal in terms of MARC 21 and does not mean anything outside of the local Koha ecosystem. A record moved out of a local Koha catalogue (downloaded, exported) loses the linked-data connection to other objects (like authors, subjects etc.), which are then identified only by strings. To make this connection between bibliographic access point and objects identified by universal identifiers more permanent outside of the local environment, the standard MARC 21 $0 subfield could be used. (UNIMARC has to be examined - $3 subfield?) The required changes would include at least: C4::AuthoritiesMarc::merge function, the authority plugin, some new system preferences, optionally display templates and also a script to update the existing biblio records. New possible system preferences needed: - switch the feature on/off - source of the standard IDs (possibly different for different biblio fields?) (standard in MARC 21 authority: 024, but may be also 010/035) (a list) - how many ids should be copied (= how may $0 added): only the first found or all of them - if an extra link/icon should be generated in display (OPAC / librarian) Please, share your comments about this idea. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

This is not true of of itemlost, withdrawn or damaged. The manual does not specify how these should behave. As far as I can tell, they do nothing. If I set an item to a value and check a different value checkbox, I get no problems reported. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 31925] New: AutoCreateAuthorities needs to preserve subject heading thesaurus to not create duplicate authority records

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=31925 Bug ID: 31925 Summary: AutoCreateAuthorities needs to preserve subject heading thesaurus to not create duplicate authority records Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P5 - low Component: MARC Authority data support Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: phil(a)chetcolibrary.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: nick(a)bywatersolutions.com Depends on: 30280 Bug 30280 taught the linker that "650 _ 0 $aFeminism" and "650 _ 7 $aFeminism$2sao" are not the same heading, so a bib record containing the latter should not be linked to the authority record which matches the former. However, AutoCreateAuthorities just creates LCSH authority records from anything, no matter what the values of indicator 2 and subfield 2 are. As a result, if you have an LCSH authority record for a term, and you import/create a non-LCSH term in a bib record and save it, AutoCreateAuthorities will create a new duplicate LCSH authority record and link to that. Every single time, a new duplicate. Steps to reproduce: 1. Use ElasticSearch, since the patch for bug 30280 only expected to work there, and in fact broke linking on Zebra, bug 31924. 2. Enable the preferences AutoCreateAuthorities, AutoLinkBiblios, CatalogModuleRelink 3. Edit any bib record, add a 650 tag, set the second indicator to 7, type Feminism in subfield a and type sao in subfield 2. 4. Save the record, edit it again, note the authority record id in subfield 9 of the Feminism heading. 5. Edit any other bib record, add a 650 tag, set the second indicator to 7, type Feminism in subfield a and type sao in subfield 2. 6. Save the record, edit it again, note the authority record id in subfield 9 of the Feminism heading. The two authority record ids should be the same, since the headings are identical, but instead one will be linked to, say, 1708 and the next to 1709, an identical duplicate record. Rather than setting position 11 of field 008 in the authority record to "a" for LCSH, AutoCreateAuthorities should have set it to "z" for Other and put sao in subfield f of field 040 (and for non-7, non-0 values of indicator 2, it should be setting 008/11 to the correct letter for that indicator value).
