[Koha] ENC: Help with shelf browser and classification source

Wed Jan 27 00:21:36 NZDT 2021

Hi Inês,

I am sorry, I missed that you are a UNIMARC user! I am not sure if $2 is
correct in this case or another field would be better. Maybe one of the
UNIMARC users can help out here?

I have only found out about the setting DefaultClassificationSource a few days ago, and it is set as Dewey (I didn’t change it because I would rather change everything, including all 1000+ items, at once). On the administration menu > classification sources, I only have UDC as ‘in use’. What do I need to do to make sure all of Koha is using UDC?
