- Subject: diacritics and volume holdings
- Lines: 25
-
- We are experiencing a problem with diacritics displaying properly in
- volume holdings records, even though they *DO* display correctly in the
- same bib. record. Unfortunately, we are unable to tell whether this
- problem has always been the case. We are just now in the midst of a
- serials RECON project and the number of slavic etc. serials we would
- previously have had in our OPAC is small.
-
- Can anyone help? It sounds as though it's simply a matter of a "switch"
- being shut off (I hope!!). We are at version 5.0.1 and are still in
- volume holdings records. We use "Supersession" as the campus applications
- gateway and use a 7171 controller.
-
- I should add that the vhld diacritics display problem is only with the
- OPAC side, not staff side. We're using IBM 3164/63 stations for
- diacritics display with the appropriate 860/861 cartridge for staff/OPAC
- side display.
-
- Thank you in advance.
