Notes

Title norm rule change to fix duplicate display of 130 and 245 in title field for serials created several new problems:

  • Monographic records with a 130 and 245 |a and |b only show the subtitle (245|b).
  • About 30k monographic records with 130 and only 245|a resulted in no title at all, and therefore failed the title integrity constraint.
  • These failed records -- including the example record from #6 below – did not update, and therefore continue to show the previous mapping

4Corporate entities listed under authors

No corporate entities that are FAST cataloging data

Those with $5 should not be displayed.

Gone with the windFixed. 4, 5, 6, and 12 all involved the suppression of FAST, foreign language, and local library subject headings and added entry fields.
5Date ranges are appearing under Topic

No date ranges should appear under subject

This date range is in MARC 648, which should be suppressed as should all FAST elements

Nietzsche and MoralitySee 4.
6Genre values are duplicative

Only one set of genre values

FAST genre values should be suppressed

Cradle Will RockSee 4.
7Genre values are malformed in displayRequire delimiting mark (semicolon) between terms, and to be linkedCradle Will RockHalf-complete.  The genre values should now be properly delimited, but are yet to be made into lateral links.  We will be addressing the linking of fields in the 2017-B renorm.
8Local subject display is malformed and only appears when you load the page for the second time.

Should be term grouping delimiters (dash) and should  appear initially.

In the MARC, the 690 field value is duplicated (because of the merged records):
690    ##$aDissertations, Academic$zCSUN$xArt.$9LOCAL
690    ##$aDissertations, Academic$zCSUN$xArt.$9LOCAL$A01CALS_UNO

Try searching Dissertations academic csun education -- you will get a list of theses, and the local subject will only appear on page refresh.

Longing for MamanIs a bug, and there are multiple SalesForce tickets for this.
9Theses Note and Publisher as same element

Theses note should not be repeated as publisher

The norm rule needs to be written to parse out the publisher and publication date

A survey of costume elements as depicted on monumental Olmec sculptureFixed.
10Contributors listed with authors In details section

Authors only

Contibutors (7XX) should be listed under a separate Contributors field in the details section (and linked). (Not a norm rule issue. This is controlled in Views - Creator / Contributor is combined in one display line. CO will make change for all campuses.).

Gone with the Wind (Selznik)

See also UMW example

Requires a configuration change in the views, rather than a normalization rule change.
12Foreign subject terms appear under facets and in recordForeign, FAST, and other subject, genre headings should be suppressed as per Suppression of MARC Fields document.Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (video)See 4.
13Local authors (in 952 field) not indexed and not retrievable. Field is displaying under author.

To retrieve authors input in 952 field.

Title: DNQ
952: Wayne, Taral, 1951-

Indicates that we need to index 952 with 100 and 7xx

DNQFixed.
15In both the Results list and the Top display of records, all authors and contributors, displayed under title with no punctuation added for clarity:

Records with multiple authors display with comma and semicolon separating them ; but many records do not. Inconsistent punctuation. Is this a new problem?

Here is how it is displaying now:

Book
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
J. K. Rowling author Mary GrandPré illustrator. 

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (video)Appears to be a bug.
16580 notes (Linking Entry Complexity Note) is not displaying.

Note would display under Description.

Many serial records include that note.
