In theory, that information should be findable in MARC21 by comparing the data in tags 008/39 and 040 with the library's own MARC code to figure out what was locally-created. In practice, a lot of records seem to have nonsense in 040, so it would have to be controllable by cleverly-designed preferences with a default of "offer nothing for download".
