[Koha] Linking biblio records with 780s and 785s

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi Carlos,

if you want the links between records to be more exact, you can activate
the UseControlNumber system preference. Koha will then try to build the
link using the identifier from 7xx $w. $w should match the 001 of the
linked record. If there is no $w Koha will still fall back to building
the link with the title.

Hope that makes sense,

Katrin

Is there any way we can link specific records with other specific records through the 780/785 MARC tags? (I suspect there might be something we can do with the MARC Framework we're using but I don't really trust myself to fiddle in there without guidance!).
