I am not understanding this completely. A 245 field is mandatory in a MARC21 bib record, therefore all records to which a 773 would link have at least a 245. It is correct that not all bib records have a 100, 110, or 111 main entry to go into the 773 $a, and that these records may then only have a 245 (title main entry) or a 130 uniform title main entry. However, when a bib record to which the 773 should link has a 130, that data does not go into the 773 $a, but goes into the $t.
And you are completely right there, Heather! :) It was an error in our MARC21 export from the union catalog. I think what happened was that $a was understood to always contain the 'main heading', so when there was no other 100 the title got put into $a. It has since been changed. That said... could it be nice to also show 773$a and possibly other subfields? Thinking especially about $g etc. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
