[Koha] Music notation or printed music - how to make it obvious

[Lisa Barr]

Good afternoon,

 

My name is Lisa Barr and I work for the Middle East Institute. Simon who
was the previous librarian has left. I need some assistance with Koha.
My number is (202) 785-1141 ext 222.

 

Help!!!

 

Thanks

 

Lisa Barr

Elaine,
yes, it can be corrected (sound to notated music or score), you could
look at
http://artes.biblio.unc.edu.ar/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=mozart+pian
o+concertos+cadenza
in which we use the icon
http://artes.biblio.unc.edu.ar/opac-tmpl/prog/famfamfam/silk/score.png

We do it changing the XSLT files of results and details.

Regards
bgk

Aha, so it does use the leader info!  I was confused by legacy
information on an older version of Koha.
However. . . I would like to point out that in MARC 21, leader 6 c is
"notated music", and the display says "sound" (and the icon implies
sound). I think calling music notation "sound" is worse than leaving
the information out altogether.
Thanks for the pointer. Any chance sound can be corrected  to music,
with perhaps a different icon?
