Show It’s Here

The Show It’s Here option works in conjunction with OPAC configuration options based on IP address for physical locations or for branch specific URLs. Please review the linked documentation for more information about the IP Address configuration.

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.

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.
