Description Aleisha Amohia 2024-01-24 22:10:36 UTC
When editing a biblio record, you can launch a builder plugin for 008.

Positions 15 to 17 hold a two- or three-character alphabetic code that indicates the place of publication, production, or execution. There is a link to a MARC Code List for Countries	

Positions 35 to 37 hold a three-character alphabetic code for language. There is a link to a MARC Code List for Languages.

It would be helpful if these codes were available as authorised value categories, to prevent user typing error.

I was going to comment in favor of a "hardcoded" list over an AV as it will allow for much easier translation and maintenance - glad to see this is moving that direction already!
