I think you want this: %SORT(due_date_sort_value AS DATE ASC)% Note that the ASC is not needed, but you could change it to DESC to reverse the sort. Quoting Holly Brennan : I'm reading this awesome MassLNC Wiki (http://masslnc.org/node/2528) trying to figure out

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen on a Bookmobile

2015-10-01 Thread Scott Thomas
Hi, We run Evergreen live on our Bookmobile. Our county has fairly good cell coverage and the laptops get 3G or LTE at most stops. Despite this, the staff client runs poorly on the Bookmobile (slowness, error messages etc.). Equinox provided us with a technical explanation of why this is so

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] 016 & 029

Hi Everyone, As part of a project to add more fields to the general keyword index, we discovered that we can't add the 016 and the 029 control number fields to a MARC record. It looks like it saves, but it isn't there when you do a new search. It also never shows on the MARC View screen. What

I don't think any of our libraries are currently trying to run the staff client live on their bookmobiles - they typically use the standalone client for circulation and then process the offline transactions when they get back to their base. We have not yet tested how well the web client will

Mary, we also strip the 029s as we don't see any reason to keep them. I'm just noting that stripping them on import may be why Elaine (& possibly Don) are unable to add them to records. - Dea Nowell On 10/1/2015 10:37 AM, Mary Llewellyn wrote: We’re stripping the 029s. Am I missing a

Elaine, is your system stripping the 029 on import of records into the system? If so this is why it will not save the 029 in a record. We just discovered this with our system (Sage Library System) recently with a different field. Once we removed the field from those that were being stripped

I thought it was a local indexing project and was wondering why you would want either field indexed! I still am not sure they would be practical fields to index since they are control numbers analogous to OCLC TCNs. As such, they might to be in an 001 in the originating library catalog,
