    How to change Title in result list for Browse number searches

    • Article Type: General

    Description:
    When doing a browse search for ISBN or ISSN, the results screen shows only 245$a for the title. This often leaves out important information. Occurs in both Web opac, and GUI.

    e.g. an ISSN search for 0556-2805 shows multiple titles "Physical review" that appear the same, but are different by subfields n and p.

    How can we define the title display to use specific 245 subfields, e.g. 245 abnp?

    Resolution:
    As described in KB 8192-5175, the title which appears in the Browse of a Direct index (number index) comes from the z13_title field.

    KB 5446 describes how to control the subfields in the z13_title.
