While having 2+ $9 links to the same authority record from one biblio record is probably not very common (depending on the material type, local cataloguing rules etc.), AFAIK this can happen occasionally and in such cases it's not always necessarily an error and/or a duplicate.
Can anyone confirm that this case is a valid one with reference to cataloguing rules etc.? This discussion comes up actually on several of the reports in this category. Suppose that we would have a 'strict' merge mode and a 'loose' merge mode, that either removes all extra subfields or leaves them untouched in the biblio record while merging, would that be sufficient? See also the AuthCleanBiblios pref of bug 5572; I would btw rather call it something like AuthorityMergeMode. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
