[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] OPAC Holdings display in 2.1?

[Hardy, Elaine]

It is call number order. For those with the same call number, available
copies display first. If all are available it appears to display
alphabetically by library, not library system

Thanks!

Yes, I do mean the search results page.

I will test a little more to see if it is call number order. A lot of our
libraries use the same call number, particularly for fiction, so that may
be obscuring the order.

Are you referring to the sorting on the search results page? If so, I
*think* it is sorting by call number (at least, that's what I've been able
to determine when looking at it.)

MassLNC has recently been working with Dan Scott on development for
Template Toolkit to improve the way local holdings display in a consortial
environment - you can see our general requirements at
http://masslnc.cwmars.org/node/2436. As part of these requirements, we
asked to change the sorting on the search results page to go by library
name. It doesn't help you for 2.1, but it's definitely a direction we
would like to go in for the future.
