Display situation for 780s and 785s Margaret Prentice Hecker 20 Mar 1991 17:04 UTC

  I am interested in hearing from other libraries about how they handle
  the display situation for complex 780 and 785 fields of serial records.
  KSU Libraries has NOTIS version 4.6.

  On NOTIS, the 780 00 and 785 00 work fine; "Continues:" and "Continued
  by:" notes are automatically displayed by the system.

  However, we discovered that if the indicators "01" through "07" (or "08")
  for 780s and 785s are used, the relationship notes are not displayed. In
  such cases, we change the lst indicator to "1" and input 580 note(s) on
  the bibliographic record.

  I would like to know if other sites are handling this situation the
  same way or differently.

  Thanks for any information you can give.
