oops, 260$c *is* linked :)

its linked to biblio.copyrightdate for MARC21
but, biblioitems.publicationyear for UNIMARC

hmm, should they both point to the same DB field? 
does this need to be corrected still?

i think they should both be the same. which one - i an not sure
i'll leave this open for now...

Hi Mason,
I am not sure, but maybe this is a WONTFIX. At least I am not sure how we can resolve this inconsistency correctly for new and existing installations.

Hmm, yes i agree

even if we were to fix this issue, i'm not sure which mapping of the two is the 'correct' one

marking as WONTFIX
