[Evergreen-catalogers] OPAC "format" field

[Elliot Voris]

Thanks for the suggestion, Galen!!

We are currently running 2.1.1, but I'm currently testing out the process to upgrade that to 2.3.6. I did find this section in MARC21slim2MODS32.xsl:

                        <xsl:choose>
                                <xsl:when test="$leader6='a' or $leader6='t'">text</xsl:when>
                                <xsl:when test="$leader6='e' or $leader6='f'">cartographic</xsl:when>
                                <xsl:when test="$leader6='c' or $leader6='d'">notated music</xsl:when>
                                <xsl:when test="$leader6='i'">sound recording-nonmusical</xsl:when>
                                <xsl:when test="$leader6='j'">sound recording-musical</xsl:when>
                                <xsl:when test="$leader6='k'">still image</xsl:when>
                                <xsl:when test="$leader6='g'">moving image</xsl:when>
                                <xsl:when test="$leader6='r'">three dimensional object</xsl:when>
                                <xsl:when test="$leader6='m'">software, multimedia</xsl:when>
                                <xsl:when test="$leader6='p'">mixed material</xsl:when>
                        </xsl:choose>

Whatever I change this to here, I will also need to make sure is changed post-upgrade, correct?

Lindsay, do I recall correctly that "moving image" is what we currently get for VHS and DVD, or is it just VHS?

Thanks!

Do I remember correctly that you're running Evergreen 2.0 or 2.1?  If so, there is a file on the server that can be edited to change the 'moving image' text.  Look around line 3043 of:

/openils/var/xsl/MARC21slim2MODS32.xsl

After changing that, restart Evergreen services.

More recent versions of Evergreen, including what Lisa is running at KCLS, offer easier ways of tweaking how the OPAC displays values based on fixed fields.

Regards,

Galen
