cataloguing.pref with preference for 008 default language added
Created attachment 9987 [details] [review] Bug 7601 - Preference for default language for field 008 Range 35-37 (instead of hard coded "eng") When a new marc record is added, the language code in field 008 Range 35-37 defaults to Englih ("eng"). This makes cataloguing inefficient and error-prone for librarians if most of the bibliographic data is e.g. in German or in French. Test: - Apply patch - Edit preference DefaultLanguageField008, fill in e.g. 'ger' - Go to Cataloguing, Add marc Record - Click in field 008. Language code should read 'ger' (instead of 'eng') Created attachment 9988 [details] [review] Bug 7601 - Preference for default language for field 008 Range 35-37 (instead of hard coded "eng") When a new marc record is added, the language code in field 008 Range 35-37 defaults to Englih ("eng").
