Maintain membership to physical collections when merging bibliographic records
Currently in the MD Editor, when merging bibliographic records, if the non-surviving bib record was included in a collection the membership to the collection is lost. The problem is made worse by the fact that operator will probably be made aware of the matching duplicate record at the point of saving the bib; at this stage only the duplicate bib record is displayed, there is no indication that it has been included as part of a collection.
The bibliographic merging process in the MD Editor should be improved to take account of records included in physical collections, transferring membership of the collection to the resultant merged bibliographic record.
