Shelving locations that are setup in the LOC category allow libraries to
include a location or not, based on whether they use the location in
cataloging.  This makes sense.  What cataloger wants to sift through a bunch of
shelving locations they are never going to use?

However, if you allow advanced searching to use shelving locations as a limiter
(AdvancedSearchTypes), if you are on the staff client in advance search, you
have the same locations restricted imposed on search.pl, which is not what one
would want.  Staff will never be able to limit to a shelving location used at
another library.

I don't think that the library limitations in LOC should apply to search.pl.
