Description verolencinas 2016-05-02 21:33:55 UTC
The advanced editor in the cataloging module does not permit to search, link and add new authority records. You can link fields to authority records through the $9 subfield but that means searching for each authority record in a separated browser tab or window to retrieve the record id.

This has been fixed in current versions - it's now possible to link authorities using a keyboard shortcut and a plugin like the one for the standard cataloguing module.
