Dear Kathy, et. al., Returning to the subject of the display of 773s, I have submitted two patches today for 3.2/3.4 (depending on whether these are classified as bugfixes or not). The first fixes the semantics of indicator 1 for MARC fields 780 and 785, and the second provides preliminary support for display of 773s (according to the OCLC bib formats documentation, these are the only three fields in the 76x-78x range that should display). See Bugzilla reports (which include patches): http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4370 http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4371 The 773 display and linking is very crude. The link merely consists of a search on 773$a and 773$t, which is probably not the behavior that most people will want, in light of the earlier discussion about $x, etc. earlier, but I figure imitating the way 780s and 785s are handled is a good start, and a simple change that's unlikely to cause anyone any problems. More precise (and useful) linking with $x etc. would probably require additional configuration on a per-library basis. For example, at the ANS we would like the 773s to link only to the parent record, and the parent records to have a link to search for child records, which requires a great deal of additional Zebra configuration. Any thoughts would be welcome (and if someone who is familiar with the wiki would like to create a wiki page for discussing analytics, I would be happy to move the discussion of analytics over there). Hopefully this will be of use to others, as well. Regards, Jared Camins-Esakov Kathy Rippel wrote:
Yes, there are obviously more of us interested in analytics than one may have imagined!
Unfortunately, the current display features don't show host publication information, at least not for us.
As a "work around", both in our legacy system and Koha, I have added 590 notes, but this seems counter-productive when we have all of the data right there in the 7xx fields.
We may be interested in chipping in financially if anyone else wants to spearhead this. Contact me offline and we can talk.
