[Koha] 505 Enhanced Contents Note

[Jared Camins-Esakov]

Charles,

My library recently made the switch to Koha, and I am thus still getting
> used to it. One major trouble I am having is with the 505 field if I want
> to include an enhanced (as opposed to simply formatted) contents note to
> allow patrons to access chapters of edited volumes by title/author searches
> rather than just keywords. I am used to formatting them as a chain of $t
> /$r within a single field, but since Koha has separate form fields for each
> subfield, I feel a little out to sea on this one. Every variation I try
> makes the display unusable and doesn't visually connect the $t subfield to
> the appropriate $r subfield in the OPAC. Do I need to repeat the entire 505
> tag for each individual entry? I saw in the list archive that there is a
> bug-fix related to the 505 field, will this fix the problem, or is there
> some aspect of formatting that I am missing? Any help would be very
> appreciated.

Welcome. The fix for bug 6617 (
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6617 ) should do
what you need.

Regards,
Jared
