Bug Description

Looking at Evergreen 3.1.6 in Firefox 63.0.3

In Item Status and Record Bucket, the column for Publisher includes the place of publication. This is a problem if I need to sort a group of records by publisher, ending up with all the (for example) New York publishers sorting together. I believe it would be more useful to have only the publisher name display in that column.

I agree it would be more useful to have just the publisher name in that column.

We are not seeing this behavior in 3.0.2 or 3.2. Just the publisher displays in both item status and record buckets

Adding a follow up note here that may help troubleshooting. As Elaine said, here at PINES we were correctly only seeing the Publisher's name in this column. However we were also running into an issue where the Title and Author columns were coming in as all lower-case. When we applied this to fix that: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1811689 our title and author are now capitalized correctly, but we're now getting the entire 260/264 field as reported by others above.
