There are ways you can address this issue. If I remember correctly, if 
staff set their preferred library to the institution, it should retrieve 
electronic resources belonging that that library. However, I haven't 
tested that particular feature in a while, and I'm unsure which 
workstation search preferences would affect whether its retrieved or not.

Alternatively, you could use the "When enabled, Located URIs will 
provide visibility behavior identical to copies" global flag to make 
those materials appear when searching at the consortium scope. There is 
documentation on how this flag affects search results at 
http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.10/_cataloging_electronic_resources_8201_8212_8201_finding_them_in_catalog_searches.html

Beyond the electronic resources, there may be some areas where the 
community comes to consensus on which MARC tags display and where they 
display. It sounds like the display of 700s below the title may be one 
of those areas of consensus, but I, personally, would like this idea to 
be shared on Launchpad and with the general list before such a change is 
pushed into master. I think there are a lot of people who may have an 
opinion on the change but do not subscribe to this list. My recollection 
is that the current display was based on how Amazon displays 
author/performer information. I'm not advocating for one approach over 
another, but just pointing to the fact that there was a model being 
followed with the default display being used today.

No matter what the community consensus is, though, there will always be 
one tweak or another that an individual Evergreen site will want to make 
to the MARC fields that are displaying. That's why I think it's 
important for each site to have somebody available who is able to make 
these types of changes to the record. Removing or adding a field is a 
common customization made to Evergreen catalogs. Moving the field may be 
a little more difficult since there may be some layout issues to 
resolve, but our local sites have had success re-positioning fields 
through trial and error.

I know the link for customizing the catalog has already been sent out on 
this thread, but I'm sending the link that specifically talks about how 
to add the fields:

http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.10/_designing_your_catalog.html#_adding_and_removing_marc_fields_from_the_record_details_display_page

I'm sure many of us will be happy to assist if anyone has trouble making 
these customizations.

Kathy
