[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Books on Reserve in Evergreen

[Beth Longwell]

We are doing what Jennifer describes. We have a circulation modifier of
hourly reserves and daily reserves with circulation policies that
correspond.

We also created indexes for professor and course which pull from marc tags
that are added to the bibliographic record. This allows us to have a search
widget for reserves that we can feature on the web site.
