Hi Jacob,

Koha does get updates to the MARC21 frameworks with new fields/subfields
and other changes at times, but usually those changes are only made for
'new installations' and don't affect any installations updating. This
means your frameworks would remain unchanged by updates.

You might want to have a look at the *XSLT* system preferences. If there
is a local customization for cover images, you might be able to find the
path to the files there to start your investigation. You then might also
be able to implement an alt text.

Hope this helps,

Katrin
