For search results, I suggest a list of libraries with holdings, and hidden divs that list the call numbers and item availability for a given library. If 'SearchMyLibraryFirst' or independentBranches is ON , then the user's home library's specific holdings are shown by default, and you click other library names to display the holdings for that library. Otherwise, the library name is followed by a parenthetical summary, e.g. LibraryName (2/5 available). Ryan On 2/26/08, Owen Leonard <oleonard@myacpl.org> wrote:
Shelf browse lists, etc., are generated from the item-level itemcallnumber, which should always be populated for every item.
This is not the case in the sample data I have. This is sure to cause confusion for beta-testers.
dewey and classification no longer exist and should be replaced at the bib level with a concatenation of cn_item . cn_item . cn_suffix and at the item level with itemcallnumber.
How to handle this on the OPAC search results screen? If I replace 'classification' with 'itemcallnumber' I get a concatenation of call numbers for that record's items:
PZ7.S2744 Bi | PZ7.S2744 Bi | PZ7.S2744 Bi
Unfortunately, this is also wrapped in a call number search link:
opac-search.pl?q=callnum: PZ7.S2744%20Bi%20%7C%20PZ7.S2744%20Bi%20%7C%20PZ7.S2744%20Bi
In this case should we be displaying cn_item . cn_item . cn_suffix? Without additional context for those three identical call numbers, it's pretty nonsensical. The alternative is to switch to the more verbose style of the staff client's search results.
