10.1. Unimarc Basic setup

The basic setup of UNIMARC is the same as that of MARC21:

  • You are only able to select/unselect the optional data values.
  • Optional values are the same for both UNIMARC and MARC21, therefore their definition will not be repeated, please go to web_installer_marc21_setup to read the definitions.

  2. Authority structure for UNIMARC in English: Authority records store the search terms used to find items in the database. Unlike marc21, when using UNIMARC the authority structure needs to be compatible with UNIMARC. Selecting this option makes it compatible.
  3. Default UNIMARC bibliographic framework in English: In the previous screen you clicked to use the UNIMARC flavour, now by selecting this option you are confirming you want to use that framework.
