<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>It looks as if the search by language is broken at
the current (Head) version. Any search using the "Language" pulldown
returns nothing.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Search keyword (not language) will pick out
the text of the three-character language code from the 008 fixed field and it
will also search the text in the 041 "Language" tag. Note the text in the
041 should be three-character codes, all next to eachother with no spaces or
punctuation. If you have two languages (say German and Hungarian = gerhun
in the 041), then Koha searching as currently configured will not search them
separately but will search the combined "word" (in this gace
"gerhun").</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>In many cases you should be able to find titles
with the language code set in the 008 fixed field by just searching as
"keyword". However depending how you have configured fuzzy searching and
the like in system preferences you may also pick up words with the same stem (eg
search on "eng" also picks up "engineering" etc).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Does anyone know if you can qualify a search to a
particular MARC tag by entering something in the search field (eg: "fre{041}" or
similar)?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>If it is not in bugzilla that language searching is
not working it should be raised.</FONT></DIV>

am having the same problem. A faculty member just asked the other day
for a list of books in certain languages, so I was glad to see Melisa’s
question. I’d like to figure out if this is a bug, or if there’s
something I can do as an administrator (i.e., not a coder) to fix it. If
anyone knows of a workaround for now, that would be good,
too.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 12pt" class=MsoNormal>Thanks Nicole. I think
I've still got something wrong. Our framework didn't have a 008 field so
I created one. Now when I'm editing a record I have the "..." next to
the field and when I click on it I am able to enter the 3-character language
code in 35-37. But whenever I try to search by Language I am getting "No
Results found."<BR><BR>On a side note, we were wondering if our patrons would
have to use the 3-character code when searching in the OPAC. We want
them to be able to enter "French" for example. Would that
work?<BR><BR>Thank you,<BR>Melisa<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>> Hello,<BR>><BR>> On the OPAC Advanced Search
page one of the search options on the drop down<BR>> list is
"Language." Our collection contains a lot of foreign language
films<BR>> and it was my understanding we could use this field to search
for all films<BR>> in a particular language. Does anyone know the
MARC tag that links to this<BR>> search field? I've tried different
ones, but have been unable to find the<BR>> right one. Or maybe my
understanding of the search field is incorrect...<BR>><BR>> Thank
you,<BR>> Melisa Canales<BR>><o:p></o:p></P></DIV></DIV>
