<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Mary, what version of EG are you on? Is this from the marc edit -> validate or from running the authority_control_field.pl script to perform the linking.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I was trying to trace how the authority_control_fields.pl matches tags to authority headings, and it looks like it uses naco_normalize, which gets rid of punctuation,
so if you are using the script then it shouldn’t be a problem. I’m not sure how the validate button does it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">There are also significant authority changes in the 3.0 release when it comes to pulling out the headings from the records that might be a part of this puzzle.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Could you give me links to two records, one that shows a successful link without a period and one that shows a successful link with a period?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I don’t’ fully understand yet how the metabib.browse_entry, metabib.browse_entry_def_map and metabib.browse_entry_simple_heading_map work together, but this might
be related. There was a fix for several of the browse and facet indexes because of how there is now a mix of RDA and non RDA records right now, some with the subfield e (relator) and some without. It was in the 2.12 release, but can be applied to versions
before that easily since it is just adding a new index normalization function. (if you apply it and then upgrade then you might get some errors when it tries to apply the same normalization function to the same metabib_fields a second time though.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Applying just the upgrade script to your database, and then doing a reingest should clean up your browse index to get rid of non-significant trailing periods.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We're still in the testing stage with authorities, and we're finding a heading in a bib record won't link to an authority record if the subject in the bib record has an ending period and the auth record heading doesn't. Has anyone else
experienced this?<o:p></o:p></p>
