OAC finding aid search and browse results: display the "filing title" version of the collection title
In the previous OAC display, finding aid search and browse results reflected a particular version of the collection title, encoded within the EAD <unittitle type="filing">.
The new OAC display does not leverage this data, and instead reflects (in order of availability, within the source encoding) the collection title encoded within <unittitle>, and <titleproper> as a fallback. This configuration should be re-assessed, to draw on <unittitle type="filing"> if provided by contributors in the source EAD -- as the preferred version of the collection title to appear in search and browse results.
