Review and feed-back from the MM-SIG on planned new work (Nolana R3 2022): 

  • Back-end is available in snapshot, access via Query Search or All for admin notes. See example on wiki search page.
  • https://github.com/folio-org/mod-search (search "notes" to jump down to relevant information in readme)

  • Adding admin notes to all. (UIIN-2053 to search specifically admin notes).
  • In ticket, green check means they have been implemented.
  • No objections.
  • Would like to group these search options by type. Instance notes would go after subject area of instance (e.g. Classification).
    • Groupings make sense.
    • Some feedback that the notes should go above subjects. Some think fine as is. About 50/50
    • Trying to keep aligned across all three types. This is most important.
    • Charlotte will review with this in mind.

UIIN-2053 - Getting issue details... STATUS

  • Underlying mod-search not done yet.
  • Idea: implement like stat codes - search within the giving segment. e.g. not across all three.
    • Laura: Yes. Likely to use admin notes in different ways in holdings vs. instance.

UIIN-945 - Getting issue details... STATUS

  • Question: do we want to distinct between search on public and staff only notes (or can this be part of Advanced search)?
  • Do you want to distinguish between check-in/check-out note?
    • Laura: Having all in one group for simple search sounds good.
    • Jennifer Eustis: Would circ staff need to have them separate?
    • Charlotte will also ask RA SIG.
    • Please also ask your circ folks and report to Charlotte.

Re. Instance segment, Call number - see question/comment from Former user (Deleted) on Re: Search - using Elasticsearch (Kiwi and later releases) (scroll down to the bottom of the page)

  • "eye readable" = as entered
  • "normalized" = ignoring spaces, special characters etc.
  • just "Call number" = item effective call number
    • Will also be moved above Query Search
  • Question: should this be more explicit and use the language of the item drop down? "Effective call number (item)"
    • Yes, more clarity.


Questions
  • Natascha: is OCLC normalized not going to be part of the Keyword identifier search?
  • Natascha: Feature requests from post implementation at Chicago. How to proceed?
    • For Searching - Charlotte keeps list of features desired. Check staff list against UXPROD-3641. Report back.
    • Laura: That would be a great future MM session -- UI enhancement requests from implemented libraries, comparing what we want...we have a lot of requests from our staff here at Cornell also.

    • Jennifer Eustis: I agree that it would be great. We also have a list of enhancements that we'd like to see
    • Will put on future agenda.
  • Christie: could we revisit the work done previously on search/improving search results. When will this work be addressed?
  • Which release for Advanced search? Not planned yet.
