Description Caroline Cyr La Rose 2025-06-30 18:09:37 UTC
I'm just creating this as a placeholder and reminder that this has been done, and not forgotten. 

Update 40 only deals with the MARC documentation. Some changes were made to the description of the fields, but the fields themselves remain the same and retain the same labels.

There is therefore nothing to do in Koha's MARC frameworks for this.
I just wanted to create a bug to let people know (and remind my future self) that we looked at it and deemed any changes unneccessary. :)
