Dear all,
We agree that support for ISO 639-3 languages in 041 is important, and are working on a solution for this.
Language marc codes are used in several places in Alma, including controlled vocabulary, advanced language search by selecting a language from a list of languages (which are mapped to marc codes in the metadata) and search facet.
The ISO 639-3 list introduces some complications to several of these workflows, such as languages that are mapped to different codes (e.g. French, which is mapped to fre / fra in the different coding systems). Our solution concept is therefore:
- Introducing a new search index, "Language code", which will allow searching for the language code from the MARC record directly, regardless of the source of code - planned for the coming November release (to be fully operational after the November re-indexing).
- We are working on future plans to offer more comprehensive…

Dear community,
Thank you for the idea. We suggest the following high level solution:
1. In Resources menu > Overlap and Collection Analysis > Compare collection analysis, it will be possible to select multiple match methods, from the existing list of match methods, and the order in which they will be used
2. The match will work as following: Try to match by method #1. If no match was found, try to match by method #2.
3. The report will include information on the matched identifier and its value
4. Similarly, in Resources menu > Overlap and Collection Analysis > Look Up Titles, it will be possible to upload an input file with multiple identifiers columns. The possible identifiers are the existing ones, and columns format will be the same as today. The difference is that it will be possible to place multiple identifier columns, in the order they should be used.
Thaks,
Tamar Fuches
Alma team

This request needs to be amended to include all relevant MARC fields, 600, 610, 611, 630, 650, and 651 second indicator 0. I assume this is an out of the box feature. Surely other libraries in other parts of the world might want other vocabularies as their default subject browse?

Clarification was provided regarding the functionality requested – which is not to delete portfolios but rather detaching portfolios from the collection and setting them as standalone portfolios.

Dear all,
It will be possible to have predicted items' descriptions created from the enum/chron fields using Alma's description templates.

Hi all,
This is to update that we plan to develop this option in the future. It is not in the current roadmap for this year, and we will update as soon as we have more details about the development planning.
Best regards,
Yael.

This should be implemented ASAP. The number of records with ISO 639-3 language codes is growing rapidly now that it is PCC policy (over 200,000 records). PCC policies are followed by most of ExLibris's North American customers, even if they aren't officially PCC libraries. This is like a change to any other standard, like MARC coding. ExL needs to keep its software in synch with library standards, this shouldn't even need to be an "enhancement" request.
