Put full 100 field information in search results
Please put the full 1XX field in the search results.
We have many people with the same or similar names which are distinguished by dates or other information from the 100 field. It would be very useful to have all the personal name information this display in the metadata editor and also to be available in the Excel download of the search results.
Hi everyone, thank you for supporting this idea.
As of February 2026 release, Alma supports defining custom indexes for each institution based on Bibliographic data. This new infrastructure provides the flexibility for each customer to create their own search indexes tailored to their Bibliographic data.
Refer to the Alma release notes for more information.
Best,
Alma Product

I think this is important for the 1XX field, where the omission causes confusion when trying to sort out names.

Our image library has thousands of artists where essential parts of their names reside in the subfield c. When the whole 100 is not displaying an artist's name becomes simply "Giovanni" instead of "Giovanni da Udine," "Leonardo" instead of "Leonardo da Vinci," etc.
Thanks!
