[Evergreen-catalogers] Initial articles and apostrophes in On Order records

[Tricia Everaert]

Hello all,
This question is about on order records.  Ours come without initial
articles and without punctuation in the 245.
This means when we search for The Christie affair as either a keyword or a
title search, the book isn't found.  (The on order record has the title as
'Christie affair') Or "That's not my name" also isn't found, unless
searched for without the apostrophe.

I've emailed our book vendor to ask if this is standard, but in case it is
and they can't change their practice, I'm wondering if there is a way to
fool Evergreen into realizing 'Christie affair', and 'Thats not my name'
are the very books we're looking for when we use the 'proper' title with
the The and the apostrophe in our search?

I might be overlooking something very obvious here... let me know!
Tricia
