OK, I think I got it. But then, maybe the definition of the syst.
preference should be a little more explicit. Like Mason, I had trouble
(just yesterday, actually) guessing what this might be about.
It should at least specify the part about 942$n in MARC21. But then
that brings up a further question : why just 942$n in marc21?
