Authorities with 5XX relationships should have $wr #1083

Open ahankinson opened 3 years ago

ahankinson commented 3 years ago

The MARC21 documentation on 5XX for authorities specifies that if $i or $4 are used, then the $w field should have r in the first position of that field.

This has no practical application in the current Muscat setup, but could be added for completeness.

Note that this is not applicable to relationships that are done with 7XX fields. Since we have decided to change 5XX to 7XX (#1087), then we do not need to use $wr.

Closing this issue.

We have 510$w in Institutions and it includes the 10 codes given in the MARC spec: https://muscat.rism.info/admin/institutions/30002095/edit Earlier heading [a] Later heading [b] Acronym [d] Musical composition [f] Broader term [g] Narrower term [h]
Reference instruction phrase in subfield $i [i] Not applicable [n]
Relationship designation in $i or $4 [r]
Immediate parent body [t]

I can't think of a situation in Institutions where a 500 Related Personal Name would need any of the 10 codes besides r. Likewise for our People: 500 Related Personal Name and 510 Related Institution would probably just need r.

But for 551 Related Place: Would any of these (besides r) be helpful, for showing geographic links? a - Earlier heading b - Later heading g - Broader term h - Narrower term Or should we stick to using $i relationships?
