A more user-friendly way to manage Library Specific Holdings for our print serial
We would like to see a more user-friendly way to manage Library Specific Holdings for our print serials. Often, our holdings are not continuous; we have gaps in coverage. The only way to add additional dates of coverage is to "Add title" for each date range. 360 then merges the multiple date ranges into one serial record. Having the ability to manage multiple date ranges within one record would be helpful. This system limitation also affects editing. Right now, if you need to edit date ranges for one of these serials, you are only given the option to edit one of the date ranges. If you need to edit one of the un-editable ranges, you have to delete the whole record, and then recreate the record by adding new titles for each date range again.
Although you can download the file, edit the Excel file, and then upload it again, this is cumbersome when you only need to edit one title.

We gave up on the idea of adding our print serielas because our holdings are so discontinuous, with missing issues etc, we couldn't get a decent display. So a better way to manage these would be great.
