Main Menu: Options Menu: Setup: Set Language and Labels

This option is currently under development, so the information provided on this page is not yet complete, and will change, often.

This utility allows you to customize the language used for the display of the Element Labels and the controlled terms provided in a pull-down list for an element that uses an official RDA value vocabulary. It also allows you to choose to display RDA Registry labels (e.g., Has Title Proper) instead of the (default) RDA Toolkit labels (e.g., Title Proper)
