http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2161 Summary: Item Public Note Does not Appear for the Public (only in MARC) Product: Koha Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P3 Component: Cataloging AssignedTo: galen.charlton@liblime.com ReportedBy: nicole.engard@liblime.com QAContact: koha-bugs@lists.koha.org CC: oleonard@myacpl.org There is an option to enter a public note on an item record, but this note does not appear in the OPAC for public view only on the MARC record. Per a chat: <nengard> Item public note doesn't actually display for items. Is this set to not display? <owen> Public note doesn't display where? In the OPAC? The staff client? <owen> Both, probably. I'll bet it only displays in the MARC view * owen edits a record <owen> I see public note in the MARC view both in the staff client and the OPAC, but I don't see it anywhere else <nengard> right <owen> I don't know if there is a standard usage for that, but "public" certainly implies it should appear in the OPAC. <nengard> hehe - that's what I thought <nengard> and there isn't a standard use for it that I know of - not on item records <owen> And wasn't someone asking about an item "private" note? <nengard> so - that's one enh request for the my lists tab and one bug report for this public note thing? <nengard> owen - yes <nengard> we had a customer asking about that <owen> So what would you put in a public note? The thing that comes to mind is information about damage to an item <nengard> yep - that's all i can think of too <nengard> but i've never working in a public library - who knows - maybe you'd want a note about an included CD? <owen> That information should be in the description already <nengard> when demoing librarians seemed happy about that option <nengard> yeah it should <nengard> maybe one has a missing CD ... which falls under damage <nengard> who knows ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact.
