- If a user links a bib field to an authority record then the linked bib field has a $9 stored populated with Authority UUID
- Storing $9 serves as a unique linking identifier between the linked bib field and authority record and ensures that the right bib field is updated
- If the bib field is no longer linked to the authority record then $9 is removed from the now unlinked bib field
- Might be used Used for searching all bib records linked to an authority record
- Might be used for creating authority control reports
- OPEN QUESTION - Should $9 display on View Source and quickMARC UI?
- OPEN QUESTION - How does $9 support DI updates? Will discuss on this confluence page.
- If we decide to show and it is needed for DI support then we need to make updates to Data export too.
