[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Student Success Working Group

[Jane Sandberg]

Hi all,

I'm hoping to schedule a Student Success Working Group meeting for the
end of June/beginning of July.  I realize that summer is a complicated
time for academic and school libraries, but I want to make sure we
keep up momentum from our very helpful discussion at the Evergreen
conference.

If you're able to join us this summer, please fill out this doodle
poll: https://doodle.com/poll/5wi4s7ku9k59fn79

The topics on my mind to discuss are bibiographic citation generation
and looking at the web client from a school library and academic
library lens.  I'm also very happy to see us discuss other things as
well.  Let me know if you have any ideas! :-)

  -Jane

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Monograph Parts in Consortiums

[Kathy Lussier]

Hi Sylvia,
I do not know of a way to limit the display of parts to the scoped library
without development.

Just to give some background on this feature, one of the primary reasons it
was developed was precisely so that holds on a specific volume or disc
could be applied across the entire consortium. Prior to the existence of
parts, the only way to place a hold on a specific volume or disc was to
place a volume-level hold, which targets copies that share the same call
number owned by the same org unit. For our consortia, this was too limiting
because we want our part holds to be fillable by all libraries just as we
do with title holds. We don't use any hard or soft hold boundaries in our
consortia that might limit which libraries can fill a hold.

If you want to limit the holds to just holdings within the library or
system, you could probably refrain from adding parts, make the volume hold
link available to the public, and encourage them to place holds that way.
However, I think this would be very unintuitive and would lead to a lot of
title holds on the record that could be filled by a random volume.

Barring that, I think development would be required to get what you're
looking for.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Monograph Parts in Consortiums

[Sylvia Orner]

Hi everyone,

We've recently had a couple of libraries in our consortium (SPARK) move towards 
using monograph parts for things like manga.

We are now noticing that when patrons go to place a hold on a record with 
monograph parts, they can chose from all parts that exist within the 
consortium, not just those with holdings at their library or library system.  I 
understand that the parts are shared at the consortium level, but is there any 
way to hide parts that are not associated with any holdings at the scoped 
library or library system?

If it's not possible, I would be interested in hearing how other consortiums 
deal with monograph parts.

Thanks so much!
