Hi Paul,
Thanks for your response.
By following your suggestion, we need to predetermine whether each series
title is a new heading.
Our cataloguers (so I'm told), always check the 1**, 4**, 6** and 7**
authority entries -- it's an intrinsic part of the biblio db integrity
without which we lose the OPAC usefulness of being able to click on
authority links. I've just had a quick look, and here's an example of how
things can go wrong:

<http://koha-admin/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?type=intranet&op=do_search&idx=an,phr&q=6585>4
biblio(s)
Time-Life Books.

<http://koha-admin/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?type=intranet&op=do_search&idx=an,phr&q=12090>74
biblio(s)
Automation is wonderful, but the "Mark 1 human eyeball" is still superior :=)
Best -- Paul
