is a newer standard in which mediums are stored in the 336, 337, and 338 fields and have three components separated by dashes, such as text-unmediated-volume (this one is equivalent to book). Since this medium format is a little harder for patrons to understand, you can add aliases (i.e. alternative names) that will show in Researcher instead. |
Note that Alexandria prioritizes RDA mediums over General Material Designation (GMD) mediums, so you'll need to
if you want the GMD mediums to show instead. (GMD mediums are stored in the 254_h field and enclosed in brackets, such as [book]). |
