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
Changes
Change # refers to corresponding card # on the Trello Board.
# | Change | Description | Examples | Implementation notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | Corporate entities listed under authors | No corporate entities that are FAST cataloging data Those with $5 should not be displayed. | Gone with the wind | Fixed. 4, 5, 6, and 12 all involved the suppression of FAST, foreign language, and local library subject headings and added entry fields. |
| 5 | Date 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 Morality | See 4. |
| 6 | Genre values are duplicative | Only one set of genre values FAST genre values should be suppressed | Cradle Will Rock | See 4. |
| 7 | Genre values are malformed in display | Require delimiting mark (semicolon) between terms, and to be linked | Cradle Will Rock | Half-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. |
| 8 | Local 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): | Longing for Maman | Is a bug, and there are multiple SalesForce tickets for this. |
| 9 | Theses 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 sculpture | Fixed. |
| 10 | Contributors 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.). | See also UMW example | Requires a configuration change in the views, rather than a normalization rule change. |
| 12 | Foreign subject terms appear under facets and in record | Foreign, 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. |
| 13 | Local authors (in 952 field) not indexed and not retrievable. Field is displaying under author. | To retrieve authors input in 952 field. See MMS ID 991008704019702914 | DNQ | Fixed. |
| 15 | In 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: | Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (video) | Appears to be a bug. |
| 16 | 580 notes (Linking Entry Complexity Note) is not displaying. | Note would display under Description. Many serial records include that note. | Harper's weekly | Fixed. |
