[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] question about library hierarchy

[Jason Etheridge]

> Since we are a single system, am I right in thinking we don't need the System layer in the hierarchy?  I renamed the system level to a library name and then added additional Consortium childs so that the new structure is:

Hi Roma, that looks good to me.  You just want to make sure that the
org unit types you have defined make sense with your actual org unit
hierarchy (your top-most org unit should have an org type with a depth
of 0, and its immediate children should have an org type with a depth
of 1, and the Can Have Volumes and Can Have Users flags on the org
unit types should be adjusted).  Some folks even do System -> Branch.
Leaving room to grow without requiring drastic changes is always a
good idea.  Be sure to re-run autogen.sh after changing the org
hierarchy!  That updates some static javascript files used by the OPAC
and staff client.
