Hi Jason,

Sitka's preference is also to restore the call number, as most of our sites will expect to see this at check-in.

Thanks,
Sharon

I concur with everyone else to restore the call number. I've heard from a
couple of libraries that would like to see the call number at check in.

screen

Is everything in the column picker retrieved, even if it's not
currently displayed? If so, the long term solution may be to only
request from the server what will actually be shown (or the smallest
superset necessary) and only retrieve things like call numbers when
they're requested. Adding a column with this arrangement would leave
some columns blank, but to see those the items could just be scanned
again. That way those that need to save network calls can not show it,
and those that prefer to display it can take the hit, without having to
bother with another setting.


Also, I'd vote for it to go back in.


Jason

                In EG 2.1, we--well, I, this was before we started doing
                sign-offs--removed the call number column from the list in
the Check
                In interface (in the name of fewer network calls and
improved
                performance), and maybe should not have.  I know of at
least two
                libraries that miss it.  How do others feel?

                Should it be restored outright, or made into a configurable
option?

                Thanks!
