Fields: MARC Maps

Lists all of the default (SirsiDynix-delivered) and custom (library-created) MARC Maps that are in your system. MARC Maps are used to extract data from MARC records in the source ILS to allow the data to be indexed and displayed in result lists and detail displays.

	After adding or making changes to any MARC Map, you will need to harvest any search sources that will be using that MARC Map for the changes to show up in the Searching interface.
