    Thank you for this ideas exchange request.
    For the purpose of clarification:
    Alma uses (among others) two levels of faceting the bibliographic records: Material type and Resource type.

    Regarding the Material Type: There are seven different distinct bibliographic material types in Alma, and this corresponds to the seven different distinct bibliographic material types used by the MARC standard. These MARC standards are explained at https://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bdintro.html under section “Scope of the Bibliographic Format”. Ex Libris will leave these distinct seven formats, and not add or subtract from them. This is because there are seven distinct formats in the MARC standard. For this reason we will not add another format or change the name of an existing format. Each bibliographic record has one bibliographic material type. The Material Type is considered “Music” if the LDR pos. 6 is one of the following: c d i j. This is explained in the Ex…

    Librettos should also be separated out as unique material types. They are related to music but have no musical notation.

    Also include a column for External Name on the Physical Locations List and for export. The current export is very limited.

    I have found I can change the material type regardless of status by running the "Change Physical Items" job.

    We also cannot change material type when the item is on loan or lost. We recently implemented Alma and it is frustrating to not be able to clean some of this stuff up.
