This issue is quite relevant not only for notices, but for the entire usage of the "title" in the biblio table. It is used in quite a few places and 245$a alone is much too limiting to be useful, both for staff and OPAC. A useful thing would be to be able to configure the subfields stored in the "title" database column, much like you can for example with the AlternateHoldingsField preference. I realise these aren't anywhere near similar in complexity though. I'd still like to see more complete title information in a lot of places in Koha - one way we do this is by the Keyword-2-Marc-Mapping and using the subtitle keyword. We usually configure 245$b$n$p there. Katrin are you suggesting allowing the use of `subtitle` in notices like you can use it in page templates, allowing each library to decide which subfields it wants to have available? Hi Hugh, I think that would be nice. The other idea would be to be able to specify MARC fields to pull in, but it might get much more complicated to handle. |
