Hi Deanna,

Neither circ modifiers or stat cats should impact visibility in the
OPAC.  For reference, which version of EG are you using?  Do things
change if you load the bib into the marc editor and re-save it?

Here are the things related to copies that are supposed to affect OPAC
visibility:

  * On the item: OPAC Visible flag

  * On the item status: Holdable flag (in 1.4, this has been broken up
to include an OPAC visible flag, but in 1.2, a non-holdable status
implies OPAC not visible)

  * On the item "copy/shelving" location: OPAC Visible flag

I'm trying to think if I'm missing anything.

The behavior is different with the staff OPAC embedded in the staff
client.  All items should show up there.  So if that isn't happening,
then something is definitely broken.
