[Evergreen-catalogers] to search for rda records

[Shasta Brewer]

Mike said it best on how to search for "i" in the leader.  Your local Report
Guru should be able to help you with that.  Alas, I will not be going to
Vancouver this year as budget issues will only allow us to send one person
from York County Library.

There's already an SVF (aka, Record Attribute) for that fixed field.  The
label is "Desc" and the name is "cat_form".  It's not currently available as
a filter by default, but if you set the Filter flag to true for that in the
global record attribute definition editor, you can then add "cat_form(i)" to
your searches to constrain those searches to RDA records
-- always assuming that the records are correctly cataloged re LDR/18, and
that an "i" there is enough to find RDA records, which may not be the case.
 NOTE: not a cataloger...

As for 040e, I would assume that is expected to be non-repeatable.  If that
assumption is correct, one could add a new SFV for that, but a reingest (at
least partial) or database-level priming would be required to pick up the
values.
