Dear Bernardo, Thank you very much that you kindly reply and answered my question. Your answer was very helpful. I tried searching by any of the languages that are include in the library, I did not succeed except for “eng” What if 008 filed for all the library records have “s 001 0 eng u” does this mean that I have to manually change it for all the records in the library? I appreciate any advice.
