Authorised Values have many uses, and, among others things, store in SUGGEST the potential "reasons" (then stored in the "suggestions" table) for which a suggestion can be refused. To give better informations to borrowers, some librairies would like to see longer "lib_opac" fields (the "lib" field should follow the movement, of course). Knowing the many uses of AV, and the fact that some languages may need more words than others ton convey a message, the length of these lib fields could be made longer (maybe 200 or 250 chars).
