Description Katrin Fischer 2015-12-29 10:04:25 UTC
Currently we use a : between the series name and the volume information, instead of the standard ; that is usually entered by the cataloger. The ; is used to separate multiple series entries. 

I propose to switch back to ; and use | for separating multiple series as we do for other entries.

Bug 15436 Use semicolon between series name and volumne information

To Test:
Add 490 and 830 for series and volume
View page
Should be ; (Semicolon) between series name and volume information, this replaced the : that was used.
Comment 3 Owen Leonard 2016-01-20 14:31:55 UTC
This patch breaks the detail view for me (no bibliographic data appears). Errors in the log:

 Error while parsing stylesheet: compilation error: file /koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/xslt/MARC21slim2OPACDetail.xsl element text

xsltParseTemplateContent: xslt:text content problem
Comment 4 Gus Ellerm 2016-01-20 21:50:47 UTC
This doesn't break for me, could someone else test and comment.
Comment 5 Aleisha Amohia 2016-02-03 23:08:11 UTC
Setting this back to Needs Signoff so someone else can test because it works fine for me.

After applying this patch the OPAC display is completely broken.

And there is no difference in the staff.
Comment 8 Aleisha Amohia 2019-01-15 20:52:04 UTC
This bug has been confusing us for a little while. Can you please clarify how to reproduce the bug, what fields should be filled?
Comment 9 Katrin Fischer 2019-01-15 21:20:09 UTC
Hi Aleisha,

I found an example in the kohadevboxsample data: 

Title:  Scéla mucce Meic Dathó,

490 	0 		
_aMediaeval and modern Irish series.
_vvol. VI 

Displays as: Series: Mediaeval and modern Irish series. vol. VI.

That should be: Series: Mediaeval and modern Irish series ; vol. VI.

See: http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd490.html (you could also test catalog the examples given there)

Antoher problem appears with the older 440:

Title: Scarlet and black

440 		0 	
_aPenguin readers.
_pLevel 6
_9582 

Displays as: Series: Penguin readersLevel 6.
Comment 10 David Roberts 2020-04-16 22:33:24 UTC
I'm not 100% sure that this is still a problem as reported - I don't see any punctuation between subfield a and v.

Bug 15436: Use semicolon between series name and volume

MARC21 dictates that we should be using a ; before $v in 440, 490,
810, 811 and 830.

This patch also introduces some additional changes to unify formatting
between the various options for cataloguing series:

- The separator between multiple series is switched form ; to the
  now commonly used | with a class for easy change of formatting.
- There was some missing logic that prevented the separator to show
  up correctly between traced and untraced series.
- For some series $v was included in the link for others not. Now
  $v always appears as text and only $a is linked, as this is what
  we actually search for.

To test this:
- You should be cataloguing multiple series in different ways, using
  - deprecated 440 (still present in old data)
  - 490, Ind. 1 = empty or 0 = not traced
  - 490, Ind. 1 = 1 = traced in combination with an 8xx field

Example (you should try a different combination!)
440 _ _ $aFirst series
490 _ _ $aSecond series ;$v1
490 1 _ $aThird series ;$v1 (this won't show, it will use 830 for display)
830 _ _ $aThird series ;$v1

Without patch:
Series: First Series; Second series ; 1Third series: 1

With patch:
Series: First series | Second series ; 1 | Third series ; 1
Comment 12 Katrin Fischer 2020-09-17 22:37:28 UTC
David, hope you don't mind me stealing this one. The problem occurred only for traced series where the 8xx fields are used for display.
Comment 13 David Nind 2020-09-19 08:13:54 UTC
Hi Katrin.

I had a go at this, but don't feel confident enough to sign it off given my limited understanding of MARC21 nuances!

Things I noticed:

1. For Scéla mucce Meic Dathó, (mentioned in comment 9): after the patch it displays as Mediaeval and modern Irish series ; vol. VI | <== there is a | and no . after the VI

2. For Scarlet and black (also mentioned in comment 9): I noticed no change after the patch was applied

3. For the example in the test plan: that displayed as expected (First series | Second series ; 1 | Third series ; 1)

Hi David,

first of all, thx for testing!

> 1. For Scéla mucce Meic Dathó, (mentioned in comment 9): after the patch it
> displays as Mediaeval and modern Irish series ; vol. VI | <== there is a |
> and no . after the VI

Good catch! I fixed this in staff, in OPAC it was already ok. 

> 2. For Scarlet and black (also mentioned in comment 9): I noticed no change
> after the patch was applied

This is kind of unrelated to the patch here - if you look at the record on master the problem appears there as well (missing space between 440a and p) The problem is that the part template used for displaying n and p is not adding any space or punctuation. I'd like to move that to a separate bug. Ok?
