Like the "issues" field in the items table, there should be a field for
"local_use" to keep the count of local uses.  While this information is kept in
the statistics table, it is a task to acquire, and if a library wants to keep
bloat down on their tables, the statistics are pruned on a regular schedule,
which means loss of valuable data.  This counter would keep that valuable
information in one field in each item record, rather than having a separate
field for each instance in the statistics table.

Unless it is vital to someone to know the exact moment a local use occurred, I
am suggesting that this piece of information not be recorded in the statistics
table any longer.  This would significantly reduce the growth of the statistics
table in general.
