Description:
Our abc10 tab_z105 has type 4 entries like this pointing to the abc01 library:

UPDATE-DOC 4 ABC01
INDEX-DOC 4 ABC01

Shouldn't the abc01 tab_z105 have reciprocal type 4 entries pointing to abc10?

Resolution:
tab_z105 type 4 is this:

! 4 = update of bibliographic z01 record because of authority
! database record update

Thus, the type 4 goes in the xxx10 library only.

Updates to bibliographic records do *not* cause updates to authority records. It works only in the other direction: updates to authority records (can) cause updates to bib records.
