    Description:
    Problem Description: Cataloging limits data entry in a field to 1991 characters, not 2000 and the full record view in the opac only displays less than that – in the example below it is the first 1961 characters.

    Actual Results: When 1991 characters are entered in the Cataloging GUI then the OPAC display shows the field label and characters from the field totalling 1971 characters.

    Expected Results: 2000 characters can be entered in the Cataloguing GUI and all 2000 characters are then displayed in the OPAC plus the field label

    Resolution:
    Corrected in version 21
