I agree that Shortname is preferable for the reasons you
specify. Here is something related: in our testing of 3.0,
we found out that Item Status displays the full name for the
Circulation Library. We feel this should be shortname as
well like it is in XUL. For Owning Library, it displays the
numerical org unit code which I assume is a bug. I've been
unable to find it, though, in Launchpad.<br>

Subject: [Evergreen-catalogers] Display of library names
in holdings view<br>
<br>
Hi all,<br>
<br>
Bill Erickson recently submitted some code to change the
display of owning library in the record's holdings view
to the shortname instead of the library's full name. I
and some others from IRC think this is a good idea for a
couple of reasons:<br>
<br>
- The space for displaying fields in the grid is more
limited than it was in the old client. Once you use the
column picker to add fields to this grid, the name of
the system/library can get truncated, making it
difficult to view which branch it belongs to. Any effort
to free up space in these grids is a good thing.<br>
<br>
- Shortnames are used elsewhere in the client. I don't
know we have traditionally displayed the full library
names in this interface, but changing it to shortnames
makes it consistent with other web client interfaces.<br>
<br>
Although these are very good reasons, I'm not a
cataloger and use this interface in testing. You all are
using this interface on a daily basis.<br>
I thought it might be a good idea to run this one by the
list before merging the code into the core software.<br>
<br>
I've attached two screenshots showing this interface
with and without the new code. In these screenshots, I
added several fields to the holdings view grid to better
illustrate how this truncation issue can arise.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Kathy<br>
