    Combination of several fields for brief display in OPAC

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

    Desired Outcome Goal:
    How to add the information “Electronic resource” from field 334 in conjunction with title information in OPAC? Using xxx01/tab/tab_expand_join we have already created a field TIT01 which combines information from fields 331, 334, 359, 403 etc. but it’s not displayed in the OPAC short list.

    Procedure:
    1. In xxx01/tab/tab_expand the following entry was missing
    WEB-BRIEF expand_doc_join

    2. In xxx01/tab/www_tab_short.ger the order of fields in column 12 had to be changed. In column 12 you have alternative
    fields and in the (now outcommented line) there was information displayed from field 331#1 and therefore TIT01
    was not considered
    3 L Titel 02---A01---A 00 00 0300 W ## TIT01 310#1 331#1 310#2 331#2
    !3 L Titel 02---A01---A 00 00 0300 W ## 310#1 331#1 310#2 331#2 TIT01

    Additional Information

    Examples are from MAB environment.
