[Koha] 5XX Fields Paired with 880 Fields

Hi Charles,

Koha has some ability to display 880 fields, but it doesn't look at the
links. Display is also currently not implemented for all MARC fields. If
you are missing a specific one, you could file an enhancement request
for it or take a look at modifying the XSLT files, there is some good
880 examples there that should be relatively easy to copy for other fields.

That said, I believe your 880$6 should possibly have the field it links
to instead of starting with 880? See:
https://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd880.html

Hope this helps,

Katrin
