Authorities editor in 3-14-4
Hello CIG! Happy Almost-Spring. NFPL recently updated to 3.14.4. One major change I've noticed is the reordering of the fixed fields in the Authorities editor I've attached screenshots of before (title) and after (post-update). Is there any way of rearranging them so they are better aligned with the MARC 21 order? (and the order my cheat sheets are in, haha) However, maybe I'm missing the reason why the order was changed and I should just get used to the new way. *Tricia Everaert* Collections and Digital Asset Technician Information Resources & Connections *Niagara Falls Public Library* 4848 Victoria Avenue, Niagara Falls, ON L2E 4C5 Tel 905-356-8080 x 251 teveraert@nflibrary.ca CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This communication and any accompanying document(s) are confidential and may be privileged.

We can absolutely rearrange them! I just need a *very* clear reference on what the layout needs to be for each type of bib or authority record, using the label (RefStatus, ModRec, etc.) rather than the 008 position. (We've left ourselves some breadcrumbs in that file as to which labels correspond to which field, but it's still challenging to work with.)

Thanks, Stephanie! I'll be happy to work with Tricia on that. I have a cheat sheet I can probably find pretty quickly that will get us most of the way there, I think. The order of the fields displayed used to match the order of the position of the fixed fields on the file (and official MARC documentation) so retaining that will be useful. Tricia - Thanks for asking the question! I'll send you my notes and loop in the Cat IG for feedback.
