• Article Type: General
• Product: Aleph
• Product Version: 20

Description:
The bib load (p_manage_18, etc.) removes spaces from the 010 field.

The input 010 looks like this:

010 L $$a 88118634

the output, like this:

010 L $$a88118634

Or, for a name authority record:

010 L $$an 88118634

and:

010 L $$an 88118634

Resolution:
The routine which preserves multiple spaces in the variable fields (010, 260, 310, 321, 362, 515, 525, 533, 76*, 77*, and 78*) by changing them to carets is fix_doc_marc21_spaces.

You need to execute this fix as part of whatever is loading these records.
