[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Custom Org Unit Trees

[Jackson, Robert]

Hi all,

Hoping someone can tell me if it is possible to use the Custom Org Unit Trees 
to create a list of branches to assist in maintaining which branches are 
subscribed to a specific service (such as Hoopla).  The thought here is to 
create a system level entry (Hoopla) and add the participating branches under 
Hoopla without messing up the Opac Org Unit tree?

For example: Hoopla is system level entry/shortname

Branch1 Branch2 and Branch3 are Hoopla subscribers.


All Bib records from Hoopla are added with an 856 entry with $u Link to item, 
$y text to display and $9 as Hoopla

This would make updates to the sites subscribed be as simple as changing the 
Custom Org Tree as opposed to dumping all Hoopla bibs and redoing the 856 
entries with multiple $9 values per site.

I appreciate any thoughts in this regards!

Robert,

Sorry, but the subfield 9 in located URIs don't work that way with the
custom org unit tree.  What you want, as you describe it, isn't
possible today.

HTH,

Will the OPAC display of records based on $9 really respect the custom
org tree hierarchy?
