[OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION] release notes 2.2

[Sally Fortin]

Hi Jim,

Thanks for catching that typo!  I had been thinking "prescribe," as in 
writing a rule to be followed.  I'll take another look at that paragraph 
and try to find a way to make the meaning clearer. Essentially, the idea 
is that you can create an authority control set that defines for 
Evergreen the tags and subfields that you want to appear in authority 
records.

More documentation on authority control sets is available here and may 
also be of interest to you:

Thanks,
Sally
