Cataloguing and modifying agencies are managed by the system

[pronguen]

How it works

The administrative metadata in the document (field adminMetadata) contains two fields that store the cataloguing and modifying agencies:

• source
• descriptionModifier

They are currently managed manually.

Improvement suggestion

• in the organisation, a required field is added
  • Title: "Cataloguing agency code"
  • Description: "Code stored in the administrative metadata of a document when it is created or modified."
• when saving a new record (no existing source and descriptionModifier), the Cataloguing agency code is added as a source
• when editing an existing record (source or descriptionModifier exists), the Cataloguing agency code is added as a descriptionModifier, except if the last value is already this library code.
• these fields are imported from BNF (see spec. in file CONVERSION)

Alternative:

• Evaluate if this should be solved internally via the operation logs and exposed in MARC 040 for the export.
