[Bug 12141] New: On Display Module
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12141 Bug ID: 12141 Summary: On Display Module Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: new feature Priority: P5 - low Component: Tools Assignee: gmcharlt@gmail.com Reporter: nengard@gmail.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org I think that the course reserves module could be used for displays, except that there is a lot of language that would need to be changed and a few fields we wouldn't need (department, term, instructor). Basically a display module would do almost the same thing as Course Reserves though. When you have a display you create a 'Display' and add titles to it. You temporarily change their item type and/or location and/or collection code while it's on display. Displays can be browsed through a link on the main page (like course reserves) or seen just in the general search results. Then when a display is disabled or deleted the titles all go back to their original item type, collection code and/or shelving location. This would a great feature for public libraries and academic libraries alike. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

However, right now the only way to change something's shelving location is through cataloging or batch modification--two things you probably don't want to give the circ staff the required permission to do. See Bug 6615. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12141 --- Comment #2 from Nicole C. Engard <nengard@gmail.com> --- But a display module would be more than just changing the shelving location, it would be a link on the OPAC to see what displays the library currently has - kind of like a cross between course reserves and lists - also shelving locations would have to be changed back once off of display and doing things the way they're done in course reserves lets Koha remember the original shelving location so when you remove it from display the location is changed back to where it belongs. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
