    Problem Symptoms:
    When the user submits an ILL request, they have the option to include a 'Source of Reference'.
    Where can the text submitted in this field be edited?
    I would've expected to find this field on tab '2. Bibliographic Details'.

    Cause:
    Defect

    Resolution:
    The 'Source of Reference' is stored in bibliographic field 590 (MARC 21) and can be seen in tab '2. Bibliographic Details'
    Sometimes there is a problem in handling this field, resulting in a corrupt contents.
    The problem was solved with rep_change #2479 (Aleph 21).

    Additional Information

    rep_change #002479 Description: ILL - In some cases, when updating the bibliographic information of a borrowing request, the source field is corrupted.
