When you define the MARC tag structure you can select how the subfield is managed. If you enter nothing, then the subfield is free. If you choose a category of authorized_value, then a list will be shown and you can only choose a value in the list.

Зразок : мова документу. A table exists, defined by the LoC (and used even in french UNIMARC ;-) ).

  The table says :

ang

стара англійська мова

eng

англійська мова

fre

французька мова

fra

стара французька мова

ger

німецька мова

So, enter those values in a authorized values list (say : category LANG), and set langages subfield to "LANG".

The 3 digit being the "code" and the complete "text" being "english" or "french"…

Now, you have a list for the languages.

Краще : If you set subfield to "mandatory", no empty value is possible.

If you set subfield to "non mandatory", an empty value is automatically added and is the default one.

Ще краще : The list is ordered by "text" in the MARC editor.

  You want to have by default, say "eng" ?

  Ok, you must know that the space is "lower" than any letter.

  so, put " english" as text instead of "english" (notice the space at the beginning), and… eng / english is now the default value.

  quite nice isn’t it ?
