Managing Collections - more options for searching and display
In the Collection Resource Editor (Alma) - it would be really useful to have greater flexibility for searching within a collection. Can we have the option to search by MMS Id and keyword? At the moment only Title and Publisher are available.
This would be really useful when you don't know the specific title/publisher you are looking for - so you want to do a keyword search within the collection to browse. Also if you know the specific MMD id that would be useful too.

Absolutely - just cleaning up a collection of 927 titles ergh! Publisher is searchable but you cannot display it in the table.
I'd like:
-filter by inventory types
-links to inventory &
-search by MMS ID and author
-sort the table based on header (title, material type etc)
-publication date
-select titles and push to metadata editor

I totally agree with this and it would be so helpful in managing very large digital collections. If collections can be created with a set - which can be created with any variety of search strategies - identifying specific items or subsets of items in a collection using similar search strategies only makes sense.
