If this option is enabled, the catalog will display It’s Here in the availability display for items that are available on-shelf at the location that the patron is viewing the catalog from, based on IP detection or a branch specific URL.

If this option is disabled and a patron is viewing the catalog from a known IP address or branch specific URL, available on-shelf items will display as On Shelf.

Show Hold and Copy Counts

The Show Hold and Copy Counts is an option for whether or not the holds/copies available is shown within search results. If the box is checked, that holds/copies will show in the search results.  If the box is unchecked the information will not show in the search results.

Here is an example of an item with the holds/copies showing in the search results, and how the item will look when the Show Hold and Copy Counts box is unchecked.

The waitlist value may not always be accurate to the actual scenario in which a patron’s hold might be fulfilled – this is especially true for MLN1 libraries, where local item availability may impact how quickly a local patron’s hold is fulfilled.
