Version 9.0.2 enlarges the size of eighteen fields; this was done in order to accomodate metadata that had originated as XML-encoded prose free from the restrictions of the database (Huntington Library; Notre Dame). This version includes a few minor bug fixes. It does not include any new features or functional enhancements.
