All -
In general I will agree that more info from the record and less "art" or "pretty" stuff is wanted. However, all of that text in the mockup is pretty overwhelming on first glance. It would be nice if each section of large chunks of text were available, but not immediately viewable. I'm thinking of a drop down expanding box for each section. Much like the different views in Evergreen now: [cid:image003.jpg@01D00D80.A2F032D0] When the contents notes and summary are very long and open immediately on first view, the patron then has to scroll down quite a way to see the location information. Maybe the Location information could be further at the top of the screen? Other additional information that should be included right on the full record screen is the alternative formats - such as links to electronic copies and such. Generally though, I really like the layout of the markup version so far.

An Academic PAC flavor rose to the top of priorities in that survey, and Yamil Suarez and I agreed to work with others on defining what an academic PAC might look like. Yamil created a wiki page at http://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=evergreen_for_academics:pac_academic_flavor where we can begin to gather these ideas together. Based on previous discussions on this topic, some ideas for what should be incorporated in an academic PAC are more fields displayed on the bib record and less overall art. Does everyone agree that both of these are elements of an "academic PAC"? Are there any other features you would like to see in an academic PAC? Which fields need to be added that aren't currently available in the default catalog? Feel free to edit the wiki page directly with your ideas or to send them in response to this thread. I'll make sure any ideas raised in this thread end up on the wiki page. Thanks!
