Evergreen utilizes the coded information entered into the leader and control fields in the MARC record for search filters and format icons. These fields need to be accurately coded as per MARC 21 Format for Bibliographic Data/ Normes MARC 21 so the correct format icons display and the expected records are included in search results. See the section called “Leader and 008 Field Grid” and the section called “Physical Characteristics Wizard” for instructions on how to edit these fields in Evergreen.
