The current normalization process, CSU Remove 029,936,938,984 removes the 029, 936, 938 and 948 984 Marc fields from bibliographic records. The 029 is removed because it is a vendor control number and serves no function in Alma. Furthermore, the Orbis Cascade Alliance found that numerous 029 fields caused problems with record processing. The 936 is Conser/OCLC miscellaneous data, the 938 field field is vendor-specific data and the 948 984 is for local data.
