From 32e6401588fc6b2d2b862865fdfab5c2e4a60fa4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yamil Suarez Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2015 12:26:38 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] LP#1403967: show 'subject heading thesaurus' value release notes The 'subject heading thesaurus' basically defines the issuing authority that created the authority record. For example, a value of "a" means that it came from LoC. A value of "n" means that it is a locally created authority. Note that within the authority MARC editor the 'Subject Heading Thesaurus' is stored/displayed in the 'Subj' fixed field.
