Filter by Availability

Description

A search will return all relevant CDI results regardless of availability. Users will see electronic article and ebook results that are available online as well as those they must submit a request for.

A search will only return CDI results with full text availability. Articles and ebooks that must be requested are filtered out.

Pros

Cons

(Settings at each location and the reasonings behind making that choice at the time?)

UCR: The Articles, Books, and More profile is unfiltered. But we added the CDI scope to the UCR Library (IZ) search profile, filtered by availability, and excluded ebooks.

...

The idea was that we wanted the UCR Library profile to show users what they could theoretically get “right now” by walking to a shelf or clicking an available online link. The only items they would have to put any kind of request on would be print items that were checked out/lost/in transit. We excluded ebooks to reduce duplication because CDI and IZ holdings do not dedup.
