Requests

Optional columns now available: Effective call number string and Pickup service point. They can be added in the Actions dropdown. Both columns are sortable. When sorting the effective call number string column, the sort is based on a normalized effective call number string (effective shelving order) which excludes prefixes from the sort. A user can do a basic "starts with" search for a call number, with or without a prefix. If the search within Requests begins with the call number (no prefix), it will only search the call number. It will not yield results for any searches that include information beyond the call number (e.g., suffix, copy number +).

Settings > Tenant > Locations

Improvement in UI for navigating through the location tree in Settings. The number on "institution" now links to the number of campuses; The number on "campus" now links to the number of libraries; the number on "libraries" now links to the number of locations.

Settings > Tenant > Locations

Improvement in navigating through the location tree in settings. If you choose menu options in a specific area of settings, the choices will "stick" if you go to other areas of the locations tree or settings. That way you don't have to reselect options from the drop-down menu every time.

Note that each part of the tree is distinct - e.g., if you go to libraries and select institution A and campus B to display library C and D, and then you go to the campus page, it will not have anything pre-selected.

Circulation rules

The circulation rules now have the metadata object, allowing libraries to see who last updated the rules and when. 

@(OLD ACCOUNT) Erin Nettifeeuntil mid-August; after, ask in #resource-access

Bulk edit

The Bulk edit app allows suppressing from discovery item and holdings records. 

The app also supports bulk editing item notes.  The functionality covers adding a new note, changing the note types, duplicating circulation notes, updating part of the note and removing notes.

OAI-PMH

 New option has been added to allow libraries to harvest from inventory only.  This id the extension of the previously supported harvests from SRS or SRS and Inventory.

OAI-PMH will provide information about bad data encountered during the harvest so that the data can be corrected by libraries without the need to reaching out to hosting providers. The logs of bad data are available in the OAI-PMH settings page and are available for up to 30 days after the harvest completed.

OAI-PMH performance has been further improved and supports up to three concurrent harvests (two full and one incremental).

For the consorcial implementations, in addition to the tenant level harvests, OAI-PMH supports also cross-tenant harvests allowing one harvest started in the central tenant to harvest data from all tenants continuously.

Data export

For consortial implementations, data export supports exporting shared instance records from member tenants.

Inventory > Create bound with relations

@Charlotte Whitt 

Inventory > Call number browse by type

Added the ability to browse by specific call number types: Dewey, LC, Local, Other scheme, SuDoc, and NLM. Added normalized sorting for both SuDoc and NLM. Note that in order to support this implementation, the mentioned types are now uneditable in the Inventory settings. 

All call numbers can still be browse interfiled in the Call numbers (all) option. 

Effective location (item) facet: In this release, if items on a single Instance have call numbers of different call number types, when browsing by a specific type, the locations of all items on that Instance will appear in this facet.

Automated authority linking > Changing which linkable MARC fields can be enabled for automatic linking permission. 

  • The permission which allows a user to update automated linking rules (enable or disable field for automated linking) is not assigned for admin user by default. 

  • There is only one way to add this permission to the user - sending request via Postman to include this back-end permission "instance-authority.linking-rules.item.patch" in the list of user's permissions.

Remote storage

We have added two new environment variables to make the RTR works with the folio-spring-system-user library code. Please see the below PR and readme of the module

Notes

Possible to failure while creating multiple notes via API when creating multiple note_link objects for the same target object (was not able to reproduce it via manual testing or using Jmeter highload perfomance tests)
