[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Wish list items from the Cataloging Interest Group meeting Evergreen 2014.

[Sarah Childs]

Interesting.  We don't do local notes like that. Either it's true for 
everyone so we would add it to the MARC generally, or we would add it as 
a copy note. Sounds like this is a feature that would be useful for you, 
but not for us.
