1. Add Editions link-type facility to All Titles Persistent Search results

   When searching for a specific barcode using All Titles Persistent Search and the search result appears on screen, would it be possible for there to be a link next to the Edition statement (i.e. the 250 field contents) which links to the results for all editions of the title in question?

   In addition, would it be possible for that link to the results for all editions to appear in the search results when Physical Items Persistent Search is used instead, even though there is of course no Edition statement shown in such instances?

   There are many instances during the course of a working day in which our Capacity Management staff will need to work with a specific item (relocating, withdrawing or putting a note on it) within the context of it being one (of possibly more than one) item for the given edition. They don’t always need to know in the first instance whether there are other editions of that title also maintained by us, but may need to do so as a result of the work they perform with that initial item.

   Having a link present in perpetuity seems more convenient than having to reprise the original persistent search.

2. Display the "material type" text box in the "Receive new items" page

   When we receive an item: Acquisitions > Receiving and invoicing > Receive > find the title > Manage items (to review the other items first) > Receive new items, the page shows the entry boxes for enumerations, but the material type entry box is missing. One has to finish data entry for that page, bounced out to the item list, and then click Edit inventory to GO BACK to the Receive New Item page to add the material type. It would be great if this Material type is also displayed in the Receive page in the first place.

3. Translate Titles to Items set job

   We'd like the ability to truly 'itemize' a set of All Titles / Physical Titles i.e. translate a set of titles uploaded from MMS IDs into a set on which we could run the Change Physical Items job. Many times we want to add an Internal note at the item level to a set, but we can't to sets that have been uploaded as Titles (except to add a local 9**, report on it the next day in analytics, export that report, excise the barcodes, and re-upload a set at the Item level - ridiculous!).
   A smoother flexibility between Title and Item generally would be most welcome.

   Thanks,

   Sam

4. Change Repository Search "Contains" to drop-down to enable searching "Contains Phrase", "Starts With", and "Equals"

   In the repository search simple search, the only search operator you can use when searching available indexes is contains (e.g., FIND all titles WHERE title CONTAINS ____.

   We would like to request that the CONTAINS operator be turned into an advanced-style dropdown menu to enable searches like this:

   FIND all titles WHERE title CONTAINS PHRASE ____
   FIND all titles WHERE title STARTS WITH ____
   FIND all titles WHERE title EQUALS _____

   In many cases, an advanced search is not required, it is simply the contains operator that needs to be modified, and performing an advanced search just to modify the contains operator is cumbersome.

5. More than one work order type per Word Order Department

   In our library, one physical location in the library handles many processes. However, we still want patrons to see a different status for each kind of work order. Right now, only one work order type (the source of the Primo Statuse) can be associated with any given work order department (the currently at location.) So, in order for our patrons to be able to tell the difference between an item at the bindery and an item being repaired in house (with their corresponding turn around time) our staff has to switch currently at locations when they switch tasks. Can you make it so that multiple work order types can be handled by a single work order department, even if this department is not the circulation desk?

6. Add fields for Title of unit and other descriptors to the Item Record OR add radial buttons to Item record and description templates

   Currently, there is no good way to use the “Generate” button in the item record to create descriptions for supplements and indexes. In the interest of consistency, we intentionally do NOT enter the descriptions manually, which greatly improves searching and sorting of serials.
   While it is possible to have supplements and indexes list separately by creating separate records and adding the $o (unit title) to field 864 (supplements) or 865 (indexes), the holdings list does not display the unit title, so there is no visual difference between the two holdings. An 863 holding for “Aperture” and an 864 holding for “The Photobook Review” would appear identical in the list of holdings. This would also list the supplements separately from the issue to which they are a supplement in both Alma and Primo, which is undesirable. Furthermore, all holdings still draw upon the same description template table for generation of the description, which is the most useful field for distinguishing serial issues in Alma and Primo.
   At present, there is no equivalent to MARC holdings 863-865 subfield $o in the item record. (Nor is there a field for subfields n, p, or q, but I personally haven’t had a need for them as yet). In order to get the supplement title to display, it must be improperly entered into one of the enumeration fields. However, those are fields legitimately in use with other data, so any description templates must take into account both legitimate and “work around” uses for the field(s). It is virtually impossible to account for all possible values which could be used in an enumeration field, since volume numbers and issue numbers can continue indefinitely and supplement titles may differ with each issuance. Likewise, use of the generic title “supplement” is less than helpful where multiple supplements are issued (i.e. The New York Times)
   For example, right now I cannot set up a description template to simply display the text as input in $b, since most serial issues need to have that field prefixed with “no.” and I want that constant as part of the generated description coded in the template. If I just put the supplement title in $b and use the template as it works best for most issues, I get a display like “v.103:no.Book Review(Aug. 8 2016)”
   
   Adding a unit title field to the item record and including it in the generated description seems as though it would be the most efficient solution to this problem, at least from the perspective of the person receiving the issues. Supplement titles, index notation, etc., could then be placed in this field and its display could be defined in description templates without having to account for the field’s use as a volume or issue number. Using this approach would also, in theory, enable reporting, searching, and sorting supplements and indexes both with the basic units (by using the description field) or separate from them (by using the separate fields that make up the description).
   An alternate solution could be to add radial buttons to the item record indicating whether they a basic unit, a supplement, or an index and then add corresponding radial buttons to the description templates to indicate if it is applicable to one, some, or all of those issue types. In this way, I could have two templates utilizing exactly the same combination of enumeration and chronology fields, but define one to add the “no.” prefix and one to skip it. This, however, seems like a poor form, since the enumeration fields, by their very name, are designed to hold numeric data, not text. This also limits ability to report and sort supplements and indexes separately from the basic unit, since there is no distinct subfield.

   Currently, there is no good way to use the “Generate” button in the item record to create descriptions for supplements and indexes. In the interest of consistency, we intentionally do NOT enter the descriptions manually, which greatly improves searching and sorting of serials.
   While it is possible to have supplements and indexes list separately by creating separate records and adding the $o (unit title) to field 864 (supplements) or 865 (indexes), the holdings list does not display the unit title, so there is no visual difference between the two holdings.

7. Hyper link POL in the holdings list

   In the list of holdings of a BIB record, the PO Line is indicated, but it is not linked. It would be practical to have a hyperlink to get to the POL directly. The linking under "more actions" is not always very useful, because you get a list of all POL - if you have many POL for a journal, you need to remember the POL of the holding you're interested in. A hyperlink would make work easier.

9. Add indicators to IZ/NZ/CZ tabs in Repository Search results to show presence of bib records and local holdings

   It would save time in cataloging, acquisitions, ILL, and reference if the IZ/NZ/CZ tabs included some sort of indication that there are bib records matching the search and, where applicable, local holdings attached to those records.

   My thought is a simple count added after the tab title -- local holdings / bibs.

   Additionally it would be helpful to shade or highlight the active tab, making it very quick to recognize in which zone you are working.

   Finally, on NZ and CZ results lists, it would be helpful 1) highlight the local holdings so that they stand out more obviously in a list sorted by rank, title, etc., and 2) to offer the option to sort bibs with local holdings at the top.

   With these changes in place, staff would not need to click through all three tabs to check for bibs and holdings which may or may not exist. If the tab shows 0, you can skip it. Likewise, if the total NZ + CZ holdings do not equal the IZ holdings, the cataloger know that there are either IZ bibs that have not been shared to the NZ (IZ count higher) or holdings that are actually managed at the NZ level and not appearing in the IZ (NZ+CZ count higher).

   I have attached a file with actual and edited screen shots to demonstrate this concept.

10. In advanced searching in Alma NZ for physical titles, have results say: Advanced searching not performed for physical materials in NZ.

    In advanced searching in Alma NZ for physical titles, have results say: Advanced searching not performed for physical materials in NZ Currently, results from this impossible search only indicate "No records were found," making it look like the NZ does not have anything, when in fact there may be many. Perhaps search options for advance searching in the NZ should not allow physical titles as a search option. Example: condition title= Wyoming, and condition material type= Map in the NZ results in nothing, but there are over 2k hits if searching All titles instead of Physical titles, some of which are tangible.

11. Make Brief Levels more visible

    Now that we have defined our local Brief Levels for Alma bib records, it would be very helpful if we could view the Brief Levels more readily. For example, it would be helpful to include the Brief Level as a column in spreadsheets of exported search results. And it would be very helpful to see the Brief Levels in the Receiving work bench to help with initial sorting of incoming material and identifying items most appropriate for rapid cataloging at the point of receipt.

12. Expand options for repository search for item barcodes

    It would be nice to be able to have more options in the advanced search when searching by barcode. Currently, the only options are "contains keywords", "contains phrase", and "is empty".

    It would be useful to be have the same dropdown options that are available when searching on other identifiers, such as the MMSID. Specifically, the >, >=, <, <= options would be very useful.

    Sample situation: I would like to create a set of all items that have not been moved to our new barcode system. Our new barcodes have 8 digits, and our old barcode numbers only have six digits. To create this set, I wanted to be able to do a search for all barcodes with a value <10000000, but that was not an option.

15. repository search sort by collection name (asc/desc)

    Ability to sort searches in the repository by collection name (ascending & descending) when searching by titles & portfolios. This sort feature is only available right now when searching for electronic collections; this feature, when turned on, applies to the other searches you can do (i.e. electronic portfolios) but only if one searches by collection first. Would like the sort feature to be available for all searches in the repository, not just for collections.

16. Expand the menu for actions on records in the NZ repository search results to include "link" in addition to "edit" and "order"

    Currently, in order to link to a record you have to click on the title for the full record and then click on the "link" button. Putting the option to 'link' to a record in the initial search results would save some maneuvering of the mouse and a click.

17. Ability to link POs which were not originally linked to a bib. record to a new bib. record.

    We would like to be able to link POs which were not originally linked to a bib. record to a new bib. record so that they can be rolled over.

18. Better presentation of Resource types in limiting search, left panel

    I have a suggestion related to Resource types, limiting search. Sometimes the group Undefined is too big. If you search "Mozart" (in NZ-instance), there are more than 2000 Undefined. Most of these are component parts. An improvement would be to use:
    Component parts (Text): LDR pos. 06 = a AND LDR pos. 7 = a
    Component parts (Musical sound): LDR pos. 06 = j AND LDR pos. 7 = a
    It is easy and you don't have to consider 008 here.

    If you need any changes here, you may do so, or let me suggest something.
    Maybe it is not necessary to differentiate between text and music? In that case you may make an even simpler search:
    Component parts: LDR pos. 7 = a

    (For the time being, In-analytics (I.e. Component Parts) are presented as "Books - Undefined" (these are journal articles or articles in books)
    Musical sound tracks are presented as "Music - Undefined". This is not so good.

20. Change Alma so that holdings information in angle brackets < > displays in all views.

    The only place that holdings information in angle brackets < > displays is in the edit function. Angle brackets are ANSI standard punctuation, and we have used them in many holdings records. This information does not display in index screens in Alma or Search It, thus making it difficult for users to accurately interpret our holdings. Please change Alma so that information in angle brackets < > displays in all views.
