Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Inventory

[Jeremy Buhler]

Hi Georgette,

Several Sitka libraries have done inventory by scanning books on the shelves
into a laptop w/ the Evergreen client, then running reports to identify
missing items.  For details see past discussion on this list at

  Thank you Aaron.  I was looking for scan in inventory, if anyone has done
 that, but this is a helpful suggestion as well.

   It depends on how you define inventory. I have done a list of what
 should be on the shelves for a library (shelving location, title, call
 number and barcode) and they manually verified that what was on the shelf
 matched the list, but we have not done a scan in every barcode to see what
 is on the shelves inventory

  I am on a fact finding mission, so if anyone can tell me, have you taken
 an inventory since you migrated to Evergreen, how did you do it, were there
 problems, and are there reports to finalize it all and make sure everything
 scanned etc.?
 
  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
  Thank you

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Adding custom fields to OPAC display

[Jeremy Buhler]

We are configuring Evergreen 1.2.3.1 and would like the OPAC to show
additional information in the default view for bib records. In addition to
showing the Abstract, for example, we would like to create a new line for
local notes with data derived from the MARC record.

I understand this will involve changes to /xml/rdetail/rdetail_summary.xml
and have successfully created new rows in the table, but I'm not sure how to
populate the rows with data from the MARC record.  Can anyone point me in
the right direction?

Thanks,
