--- Comment #3 from Christopher Brannon <cbrannon at cdalibrary.org> ---
In thinking this over more, I think it would be great if the item record had
one or two shelving statuses available, along with time stamps, and a
preference that could manage them.

For example, if we had at least one temp shelving field with associated
timestamp, we could use this for the cart feature (which I think should at
least be renamed bookcart), and we could tell how long it has been since it was
triggered.

Then we have a preference that allows us to look at this field and watch for
certain values, and then decide how long that value sticks around, in either
hours or days.  So, maybe the entry looks like:

bookcart|1d

or

bookcard|12h

But this would only work with 1 value.  Sometimes we might want to have more
than one value.  Maybe we want the item to be on a display too.  If we had
another field with timestamp, we could have it setup for a temp display for a
period of time:

display1|31d

Maybe we don't need to touch cart at all, and just have the other for displays?

It WOULD be helpful if whether it was a cart location or display location, that
it would show next to the permanent location rather than replacing it, as the
cart location currently does.
