You can copy and paste the following customized VE norm rules for OOTB display fields. After replacing the OOTB norm rule with the customized rules below, click Apply rules. No further configuration required, assuming the OOTB display field is already included in your view.
Display field | Description | Norm rule |
|---|---|---|
Title | Takes title from MARC 130, if it exists. If MARC 130 does not exist, takes title from MARC 245 $a, $b, and $c Example: has a 130 field, which is more helpful than the 245 in specifying the particular film adaptation. Updated: 11/10/21. Added subfields, including number and part to the 130 and 245 rules. Removed (Online) from 130. | |
Creator (Author) | Takes author from MARC 100, 700 (if $e author exists), 110, 111. Removes ending period. Example: has two authors-- one in a 100 and the other in the 700. Both appear in the Author display field. | |
Contributor | Takes contributor from MARC 700 (if $e author does not exist), 710, 711. Removes ending period. Updated: 11/16/21. Prevents repeating author’s name in this field if there is a 700 $i Translation of work: field in the record. | |
Genre | Takes genre from MARC 655 if second indicator is 7, and the value in $2 is any of the following: lcgft, gsafd, gmgpc, rbbin, rbgenr, rbmscv, rbpap, rbpri, rbprov, rbpub, rbtyp. Removes ending periods. Differs from the OOTB rule in that it does not include the 6XX$v. | |
Description (Summary label) | Takes only the first occurrence of the 520 field. Occasionally, a MARC record may have multiple summary fields, which is arguably unnecessary. Example: has two 520 fields, but is only displaying the first. | |
Subject | Displays only LCSH (6XX fields second indicator 0). Includes transformations for LCSH Illegal aliens and related subject headings. Adds $v (form subdivision) to the display, as the OOTB lacks it. |
