[snip] At this moment, it is a pain that you have to remove volume designator on a new Series Title authority. Once this is done, you can then continue to work on subsequent volumes of the same series! Surely, there must be a way to instruct Koha not to add subfield $v to new Series Title authority automatically! Not to mention that it is not much fun merging 20+ similar Series Titles into one!!
Our cataloguers tell me that they always save a *new* biblio record twice if it involves a *new* Series authority -- first for the $a, then for anything else; after that it's a walk in the park for all subsequent entries. It's been on my list of "things to look into" for some time now, but the cataloguers are so used to it that they no longer complain :=} Best -- Paul
