[Evergreen-catalogers] Help with importing items and not keeping holdings field (945 or 949)

Thu May 7 12:28:22 EDT 2020

Hi Susan and Kate,

This worked in the xul version of Evergreen 2.9. When we moved to the web
client the option to remove the 945/949 field when importing items was no
longer available. I am going to open a launchpad bug on this. I'll let the
EG catalogers list know so you can all apply some heat this afternoon.
