This is more a search option than really different searches. I propose to merge them into only one with a select for where to search.

[Bug 37438] New: Add option to define header quick action preference on Place a Hold page of staff interface

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=37438 Bug ID: 37438 Summary: Add option to define header quick action preference on Place a Hold page of staff interface Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Staff interface Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: andrewfh(a)dubcolib.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com When looking at a biblio record, the header bar generally defaults to "Search catalog" but changes to "Check out" when one places a hold. Our staff have found themselves generally more likely to want to perform another search after a hold, rather than perform a checkout. As such, this default action is adding an extra click after every hold. To recreate: 1 - find a bib record, look at it (/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=XXX) 2 - observe that while you're on the Normal tab the header offers "Search catalog" 3 - click to MARC, ISDB, Items, Checkout History, Modification Log, or Rota 4 - observe that the header continues to default to Search 5 - click Holds (/cgi-bin/koha/reserve/request.pl?biblionumber=XXX) 6 - Now the header defaults to "Check out" We'd love a system preference to allow us to change this default so that the header defaults to Search for all parts of the bib record. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 37440] New: Add option to never default to Cataloging Search

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=37440 Bug ID: 37440 Summary: Add option to never default to Cataloging Search Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Staff interface Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: andrewfh(a)dubcolib.org QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com Staff find the Cataloging Search interface unhelpful. It offers relatively little functionality that is not available in the default search interface and is broadly less familiar and therefore less desirable. While one is in the Cataloging module, the header defaults to Cataloging Search but also offers Search the Catalog. We'd love to have the option to make Search the Catalog the default with Cataloging Search available as an option should we ever want it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

For many libraries it would still be necessary to set a certain overdue notice (say the third overdue notice) as "mandatory for print message". Jonathan suggested to reuse the aforementioned pref and make it multivaluated with 3 values possible: ODUE, ODUE2, ODUE3. Then: - if at least one is selected then patrons can edit it/them - if none selected, we don't allow the patrons to modify any This would be the simplest way to extend the functionality of Bug 30515. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 22972] New: Proposal for enriching the bibliographic records with standard identifiers from authority data

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=22972 Bug ID: 22972 Summary: Proposal for enriching the bibliographic records with standard identifiers from authority data Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: MARC Bibliographic data support Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: januszop(a)gmail.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Target Milestone: --- Thinking in terms of linked data, it would be of profit to have as much of standard identifiers in the bibliographic data produced by the library as possible. Libraries use authority data coming from official sources (like LoC, SUDOC, etc.) or enrich their locally created authority records with standard identifiers (e.g. viafId, ISNI, Wikipedia). This information is linked to the bibliographic record by the Koha-specific subfield $9 which is illegal in terms of MARC 21 and does not mean anything outside of the local Koha ecosystem. A record moved out of a local Koha catalogue (downloaded, exported) loses the linked-data connection to other objects (like authors, subjects etc.), which are then identified only by strings. To make this connection between bibliographic access point and objects identified by universal identifiers more permanent outside of the local environment, the standard MARC 21 $0 subfield could be used. (UNIMARC has to be examined - $3 subfield?) The required changes would include at least: C4::AuthoritiesMarc::merge function, the authority plugin, some new system preferences, optionally display templates and also a script to update the existing biblio records. New possible system preferences needed: - switch the feature on/off - source of the standard IDs (possibly different for different biblio fields?) (standard in MARC 21 authority: 024, but may be also 010/035) (a list) - how many ids should be copied (= how may $0 added): only the first found or all of them - if an extra link/icon should be generated in display (OPAC / librarian) Please, share your comments about this idea. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
