[Koha-devel] RFC Adding column to biblio for Remainder Of Title

[Michael Hafen]

Thanks, that helps a lot.  I think I understand now.  Good link there.
I was getting confused at step 2.  I understood everything else pretty
well though.

I'd like to do something similar with call numbers.  That is to only
show the unique call numbers.  Now I'm seeing how to do it, I wasn't so
sure how it worked before.  Just have to figure out the syntax needed to
make a key of the 952$o now, and that shouldn't be to hard.  I should be
able to find a good example of that in the xsl.

On the other hand maybe not, since the xslt processing isn't done on the
staff interface.  I don't think my librarians would be satisfied with
the 245$b only showing up on the opac interface.
