[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Where do the MARC templates come from?

[Rogan Hamby]

Hi Jennifer,

By default they live on the server at /openils/var/templates/marc

There is more good information here about them:
https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=evergreen-admin:customization:cat

You can certainly create new ones.  A year or two ago I did some searching
around and found where several other consortiums had shared their own
collections they had made (because I'd rather re-use than re-invent).
There is probably more information on the wiki and/or checking irc logs
assuming you've already searched email histories.

As for why that function doesn't exist in the staff client?  The short
answer is that no one has prioritized it high enough to commit the
development resources to it.
