<p class="MsoNormal">We just upgraded Koha, and in MARC the fields such as 650 a are locked, and it looks like you’re supposed to use authority search to fill them in. However, authority search doesn’t work, and I often have new names or subjects that wouldn’t
be in there (I think). Does anyone know how to unlock those fields?<o:p></o:p></p>
