http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2514 Summary: special default fields for MARC21 records Product: Koha Version: HEAD Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P3 Component: Cataloging AssignedTo: galen.charlton@liblime.com ReportedBy: galen.charlton@liblime.com QAContact: koha-bugs@lists.koha.org It is possible to construct a MARC framework that doesn't require that (in the case of MARC21) an 008 be present in a bib record - that's not a good idea, as all MARC21 bib and authority records really ought to have an 008. Also, if the leader isn't specified as a field in the framework, a new record can be created that has the Leader/09 set to blank, when it should be 'a' to signify the UTF-8 encoding. To avoid this problem, it should be possible to require (regardless of the framework) that a MARC21 record have an 008 and that its Leader/09 contain 'a', independent of the framework settings. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact.
