[Wactclc-alma] Cataloging question

[Thomas, Kirsti]

Are the records with subfield h [medium] from your ebook vendor or are they from the Alma Community Zone?

Hi all,

We recently purchased some ebooks, and a few are displaying in an unexpected way whenever the title field includes subfield $b (remainder of title) in combination with subfield $h (medium). Here's an example:

When I remove subfield $h from the title field, it displays like this:

My question is, does anyone know of any reason I can't just remove that subfield? The medium is included elsewhere in the record, so it seems kind of superfluous, but I thought I would check in to see if anyone has a better solution.

Thanks,
Clare
