[Bug 5810] New: Subject tracings should search complete subfields
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5810 Bug #: 5810 Summary: Subject tracings should search complete subfields Classification: Unclassified Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 Component: OPAC AssignedTo: jcamins@cpbibliography.com ReportedBy: jcamins@cpbibliography.com QAContact: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org At the moment, if you are looking at a book about Religions (with a subject term "Religions") in the catalog of a library that does not use Koha's authority control, when you click on the subject tracing in the OPAC, you will be given a result set that contains every single record that has the word "Religions" anywhere in its subject. Including, for example, books with the subject "Christianity and other religions." If we make the query on the subject tracings su,complete-subfield: the only false positives will be items where the subject heading being searched is used for both a main entry and a subdivision, which still seems like a significant improvement over the current behavior. This should ideally be controlled by a syspref so those libraries which want the current behavior can keep it. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.

Engard <nengard@gmail.com> 2011-02-24 13:41:35 UTC --- I was doing a training a few months ago and the librarians there loved the fact that it didn't do an exact match. The reasoning made sense to me (but then again I was never a stickler for the rules when I was cataloging). If you have a book with about the United States and a book that takes place in the United States the subject term "United States" will appear in different spots (with other possible identifiers). The way it searches now allows you to find all of those subjects. Other examples include keywords like 'Juvenile' or 'Fiction' (just to name a few). I like that the search chains the subjects together as keyword searches (on the subject) because then you get more than if you were limited only to that exact subject. Further, if your library isn't using Authorities then it makes perfect sense that the search be flexible as it is now because there is no telling how two people cataloged two books on the same topics. This might need to be an authorities system preference that asks outright if the library uses authority control - and if so then you can make the search only search the full authority - otherwise I'd say it should stay the way it is. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.

The UNIMARC files also use the code=9 construct for author and subject links, and this fix should probably be extended to those files. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.
