Portfolios not yet included (e.g. licensed e-resources)
General notes on data:
- Private data is excluded per this Alma norm rule
- Each bib record is embedded with fields from linked holdings records
- Non-Latin parallel fields will be stored in linked 880 fields. MARC spec: https://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd880.html
- All fields from the same holding will have the same $8 value.
- All items from the same holding will have the $8 value of the linked holding.
