Display edition statement in any brief results list
Results of an All Titles search include the edition statement in the brief display, but Physical Titles and Physical Items results do not. We often have multiple editions of a title, and while the date shows which is the most recent, if we have slight date variances that make the date useless we need to be able to see the edition statement in order to choose the right record to view.

In the Alma New UI, it is possible to add the edition statement to a physical titles result list, however in the physical items result list the edition is not included in the line of Type / Creator / Imprint.
In dealing with a long list of items it would be very helpful to see which edition of a work the item is from, either in a separate line or combined with the Type / Creator / Imprint. If we have two editions of a multi-volume work having that field included will help identify which volume the description is based on without clicking the title to see the full record and then clicking back. It would also be helpful when looking at a list of items to know which edition we have if we do not know the year of a particular edition.
