You specify a MARC Editor default view for your workstation on the General tab. This default view establishes which view the MARC Editor uses each time you open a MARC record. You can override the default at any time by choosing the View option from the menu bar and then choosing the view or combination of views that you want to use. If you find that you often override the default to use the same view, you might want to change your default view.

Here is an example of a bib record with a labeled vertical view:

(For instructions, see “Setting Up or Changing Valid MARC Record Components” in the Cataloging Setup Guide.)
Note: Other options in Customize Editor can affect the way your MARC records display.
Here is an example of a bib record with both the labeled and expanded views marked:
