Hi Paul,
Thanks for your response.
By following your suggestion, we need to predetermine whether each series title is a new heading.
Our cataloguers (so I'm told), always check the 1**, 4**, 6** and 7** authority entries -- it's an intrinsic part of the biblio db integrity without which we lose the OPAC usefulness of being able to click on authority links. I've just had a quick look, and here's an example of how things can go wrong: Time-Life Books <http://koha-admin/cgi-bin/koha/authorities/detail.pl?authid=6585>Details <http://koha-admin/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?type=intranet&op=do_search&idx=an,phr&q=6585>4 biblio(s) Time-Life Books. <http://koha-admin/cgi-bin/koha/authorities/detail.pl?authid=12090>Details <http://koha-admin/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?type=intranet&op=do_search&idx=an,phr&q=12090>74 biblio(s) Automation is wonderful, but the "Mark 1 human eyeball" is still superior :=) Best -- Paul --- Maritime heritage and history, preservation and conservation, research and education through the written word and the arts. <http://NavalMarineArchive.com> and <http://UltraMarine.ca>
