    Settings for tab_acc_category in the Bib & Authority libraries

    • Article Type: General

    Description:
    What are the recommended settings for tab_acc_category in the Bib & the Authority libraries

    Resolution:
    Based on internal testing and customer input, these are good initial settings. Individual libraries may choose to modifiy these based on local indexing decisions and authority control practices:

    Note that sites have found that the 5XX tags need to be included in the Authority library table to insure proper handling of reciprocal Authority links (BT, NT, ET, etc.)

    ** Special consideration for configuring the COR tag in tab_acc_category of the Authority library. Handling of this tag relies on the following rep_change:
    V18 - rpc #1799
    V19 - rpc #400
    V20 - rpv #015475

    This rep_change will assure that the COR field will inherit the Category ($00) of the field from which it was derived. Consequently, the value of the COR tag setting it tab_acc_category is unimportant, and the entry may be left out.
