[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] MARC editor's right-click authority popup lists same authority term multiple times

[Yamil Suarez]

Rita,

At first your question reminds me of a question I have answered before
on various threads, but I am not sure if it applies to you. What can
happens is if an authority record has "see" or "see also" references,
the right click menu will repeat result entries multiple times for
each "see" or "see also" reference in that authority record. At first
view it seems like an error, but this was done by design.

Here is what I wrote a while ago with some examples...

[Evergreen-catalogers] Linking authority from bib is confusing

Though, this might not be related to what you are seeing.

Good luck,
Yamil

However from the Manage Authorities, there is no repetition of those authority terms.
