Sounds reasonable, but this definitely should be configurable, as some libraries may want to also have to OPAC explicitly say "in transit" or "in transit from X to Y" rather than just a plain "not available". > The SAN-OP has this feature in it's specific 3.0 version, running live > since 1 year now, and it display those information. > > How could we reintroduce this behaviour ? > the easiest solution would be, in to introduce a test for that in > C4/Search.pm/sub searchResults. > what do you think of this solution ?

I don't think a new items field would necessary, as the transfer status should be derivable from branchtransfers and the request status from reserves. Perhaps there should be an omnibus function in C4::Circulation or C4::Items that checks all of the various fields that describe an item's status and returns a nicely structured result that in turn can be parsed for display in the staff or OPAC search results.
