Description Iming Chan 2016-06-21 06:16:44 UTC 
MARC 008 (Material Type) doesn't stay what has been selected.

Creating a lot of cataloguing records for journal citations, so changed Leader > Position 7 to "B - Serial component part".  We then changed MARC 008 > Material Type to "BKS - Books" and successfully saved the catalogue record (no problem here).  However, when we reopened MARC 008, the Material Type keep changing back to "CR - Continuing Resource" instead of remain as "BKS - Books"!

I don't know if you have solved this, but you should probably FIRST change 000 to the appropriate type and THEN change 008
