Big summer edition of Muscat!
This major update brings many enhancements for Muscat catalogers.
- In fields with autocomplete, a number appears next to the term that shows how often the term is used in Muscat.
- The terms are ordered by frequency to identify the most common terms faster.
- Printed editions with links to digitized versions are easier to identify.
- As you page forwards or backwards through records, a counter will tell you where you are in your list of results.
- Multiple browser tabs in Muscat:
- It is now possible to have different searches in different open tabs.
- Searches do not interfere with each other.
- Muscat will warn you if you try to log out when multiple tabs are open.
- Export of folders in MARCXML has been improved.
- In full record views, place names are displayed next to institutions (such as Universität, Innsbruck rather than just Universität).
- Field names were updated, clarified, and unified across Muscat areas.
- New languages and countries in the drop-down menus: Turkish, Benin, Bolivia, Ghana, Liechtenstein, Peru, Suriname, Uganda.
- A new search box is available for the record owners: just start typing and the options appear.
- For citing identifiers from the Bibliothèque nationale de France, the ARK resolver format has been standardized.
- The occasional error "Error in validation process" has been fixed.
- Improvements to the authority file for Works: validations, attribution qualifiers, functions, relationships, language codes, work catalog notes.
- The unused field 100$w (Status) in Personal names was removed.
- Special thanks once again to Ferran Jorba and his team (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona) for their contributions to Muscat!
