[DCRM-L] Fund information, for the online catalog

We have traditionally included the fund in a 541 $h in our holdings records
with the 541 coded as private with a public 561 note indicating the fund
and date, ex) Purchased in [date] with the [fund(s)]). This practice was
revised in 2020 with the decision to code the 541 as a public note and
discontinue the use of the 561 indicating the fund or 'Gift of' statement.
Currently our format is: 541 1_ $c [Method of acquisition]; $a [Name of
vendor or donor]; $d [date of acquisition]; $e [accession #]; $h [name of
fund used if acquisition is a purchase]. The display in our catalog renders
the 541 with the label "Source of acquisition" and reorders the subfield
codes to alphabetical order (e.g., Source of acquisition: [Dealer];
Purchase; [Date]; [accession #]; [Fund], Source of acquisition: John Smith;
Gift; [date]; [accession number].
