[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Clustering editions in Laurentian's Evergreen catalog?

[Frances Dean McNamara]

No doubt that's what I'm seeing.  I'll have to try that.  Thanks.

I notice searching Laurentian's catalog that they are clustering editions.  Check Jane Austen or Mark Twain.  Interesting.

Is that a custom feature or part of 1.6 Evergreen?  And what is it using to cluster?  An algorithm?  A number?

Frances, are you talking about Group Formats and Editions? That's been in Evergreen since... a long time, maybe the first version. You can have it be the default for Evergreen or you can switch it on in advanced search (not that users would understand what that did!). To see it in work on dev.gapines.org<http://dev.gapines.org>, go to Advanced Search, select Group Format and Editions, and use Azkaban as a keyword. Note how the different formats show up as icons.

I believe it's an algorithm.
