[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] catalog link for particular Shelving Location

[Mike Rylander]

Holly,

You can use the id of the shelving location with a "locations()" filter,
like this:

http://catalog.ci.homer.ak.us/eg/opac/results?query=locations(187)&qtype=keyword&locg=4

That can be a comma-separated list, to include multiple locations

HTH,
