Hi guys,
Like probably many others, we have noticed that Evergreen is lacking a
really good "new books" feature. We've explored this:
http://missourievergreen.org/opac/extras/browse/html-full/item-age/SRLWA
The presentation of this option isn't very good though, and ideally we'd
have the ability to sort by title.
It just so happens that our library who is most interested in this has a
shelving location at each of their branches called New Books. So we
tried this approach using search syntax:
http://missourievergreen.org/eg/opac/results?fi:item_type=&query=locations(1307,1308,1309,1310,1311,1558,1559)+&qtype=keyword&locg=174&sort=titlesort)
This improves the presentation and allows for title sorting but the
search takes *forever* to return and the results are always way off and
frequently do not return any results at all. Having just tried it, TPAC
claims there are no results whatsoever. Two or three page refreshes
later it turns up 353 items. According to the DB we have 1951 distinct
bibs with items in those locations.
Has anyone else seen this behavior? Is there an open bug on it? Should
there be?
Regards,
Justin
