[Koha-devel] 952 $6 subfield question

[Cab Vinton]

Hi, All --

We're using Terry Reese's new MarcEdit plugin to update records in
Koha and I'm unclear on how we should be handling the 952 $6 subfield
(normalized classification for sorting). Further info about the plugin
here: http://people.oregonstate.edu/~reeset/blog/archives/1135

Specifically, if we update the 952 $o (call number) using the plugin,
will the $6 be automatically updated?

For example, when correcting records we could do any of the following:

1.  $6A_FIC_RU$oA FIC RUN  -- leave incorrect $6 and update $o only

2.  $6A_FIC_RUN$oA FIC RUN  -- fix both incorrect $6 and incorrect $o

3.  $oA FIC RUN  -- delete incorrect $6 and update $o

Any thoughts on which of these approaches is preferable? 1 and 3
assume that Koha will update $6 based on the new data in $o.

Thank you,
