240 $l

When a 240 $l contains two languages, this can be separated into two 700 fields with individual $l subfields, and the 240 removed:

 
 original fields:
   100   0  $a Plato
   240   10 $a Works. $l English & Greek. $f 1914
 
 updated fields:
   700   0  $a Plato. $t Works. $l English. $f 1914.
   700   0  $a Plato. $t Works. $l Greek. $f 1914.

Please note that when a 240 contains $l Polyglot an automated system cannot determine what the multiple languages are without the item in hand. These will be reported so you can add your own 700's, at will.

Default

Make all changes & expand abbreviations for uniform titles in 240, X00, X10, X11, X30 fields.
