--- Comment #26 from Ian Palko <library at stas.org> ---
For clarification:

The "duplicate bug" was mine. A search for terms never brought up this bug so
it may be a good warning for future bug reports. Meaningful titles are
important.

As regards Capitalization:

It certainly isn't a deal breaker for us. But the capitalization is not because
of using non-standard Library of Congress numbers. LoC itself uses miniscule
lettering after publication dates for editions. This is and has been standard
practice, so far as I am aware. Thus that part (the easy fix) is a real bug.


Regarding the non-standard breaking:

It seems that one way of working with such non-standard numbers would be to add
a label breaking routine to allow for a special breaking character or
customized code. If a library would like a non-standard feature, they can put
the work in to write the code for it.

"Customized" means doing the work to make it so. If we want out-of-the-box to
work, we had better plan on following standards.

For us, this did cause some problems for reference books, but we were just
recataloging this section. The solution for us was a combination of collection
code (Reference), item type (Reference), and Reference stickers. In the end,
that was better than the REF prefix.

Perhaps that might give ideas for individual solutions to the labeling issue in
the meantime.
