Hi Marilyn:

Actually, if you load authority records into Evergreen (using
marc2are.pl / direct_ingest.pl / pg_loader.pl) then subject and author
hierarchies matching the current search results will be displayed in
the left-hand pane.

Compare the subject displays for
http://tsuga.innisfillibrary.ca/opac/en-US/skin/default/xml/rdetail.xml?r=79858&t=beer&tp=keyword&d=0&hc=48&rt=keyword
versus http://demo.gapines.org/opac/en-US/skin/default/xml/rdetail.xml?r=155265&t=beer&tp=keyword&d=0&hc=34&rt=keyword
- the difference is that authority records have been loaded on the
demo.gapines.org site.
