https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19419 --- Comment #13 from John Sterbenz <jsterben@umich.edu> --- Bibliographic Level and Type of Record are both stored in the MARC record "Leader"--the first 24 characters of any MARC (bibliographic) record. Leader Byte 06 is Type and Leader Byte 07 is Bibliographic Level (note that counting in the Leader starts with 0). Though they are not stored in the 008, they work together to determine the rest of the fixed fields to be used in any given record. Other fixed field values are also incorporated into the Leader and not the 008 (including Encoding Level and Description). OCLC's Bib Formats and Standards contains useful information here (Bib Formats and Standards is free for use and is NOT restricted to OCLC member libraries): Fixed field overview (includes discussion of the Leader and 008 values that are always in the same place, regardless of format): https://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/fixedfield.html Leader / 008 summary: https://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/fixedfield/008summary.html Type of Record (has a nice table showing the relationships between formats, Type, and Bib Level): https://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/fixedfield/type.html Bibliographic Level: https://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/fixedfield/blvl.html -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
