Thank you so much for the follow-up, @Charlotte Whitt , and for the sleuthing @Mike Taylor !
I appreciate the additional information about the list results. I’ll speak to @Thomas Trutt about filing a Jira, but will be sure to include this information so that in the future, this can be taken into consideration. Wishing you all a lovely weekend!

Hi @Molly Driscoll - together with @Mike Taylor we have solved the mystery. So Mike did
https://folio-org.atlassian.net/browse/UICR-194 for Poppy. This work was in v6.0.0 of 10 November 2023: https://github.com/folio-org/ui-courses/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#600-2023-10-11
I have now closed the feature.
Btw. @Mike Taylor points out that count in the list-of-courses view, that is a much bigger job as the back-end doesn’t tell us that information, and likely can’t get it without doing an expensive search per course. So just a FYI, and that work would need funding, if Index Data is to pick that up.

@Charlotte Whitt I thought maybe this ticket hadn’t been updated but here is a screenshot of what I see in my Poppy environment:
I had a library ask me specifically if the number of reserves displays so I stumbled on the update by accident. I’ll check in with Thomas about a subsequent enhancement for the results screen.

Now I’m a bit confused, I don’t see any Jira ticket associated with this feature. So not sure I follow now. We can chat (do a huddle) and you show me, what it is you see has been fixed for Poppy.
Also your suggestion on writing up another requirement, then please do. Maybe coordinate with @Thomas Trutt who is writing up tickets for Courses too.

@Charlotte Whitt it looks like this enhancement made it in to Poppy, which is fantastic! Do you know if there is an enhancement to add that total as a column to the search results display in the app as well? If not, I can create a Jira for future consideration.
Current situation or problem:
It can be helpful to libraries to be able to see how many items are on reserve for a course at a glance. This can help with answering faculty questions and with quick quality control checks on work.
In scope
Updating the course view user interface to show the number of items on reserve for a particular course.
Out of scope
Changes to Courses back end
Use case(s)
A library staff member has a book in hand and puts it on reserve. When the reserve is listed, they see that the item is checked out when it should not be. They are able to use that information to resolve the loan on the item.
