Questions covered include:
- We need simple, adaptable reports to show items with low circulation to help with weeding print stock. What about Collection Evaluation, with a filter on 'circulated # times in lifetime', to tell us which stock is not being circulated? We like the idea of this because any staff member could produce a custom report for their subject on demand in an intuitive way. It is a title level report but shows multiple rows for some OCLC numbers. I'm sure this has been discussed in the past but I can't remember, why is this?
- What does the object 'Item Available Processed Date' in the Circulation Item Status universe represent? We were hoping it may provide an indication of when the item passed through acquisitions, but it contained no values for the stock in the test weeding report (all 01/01/0001)
- Is it possible to run a report to determine how many times a particular book or dvd has been checked out?
- Is there a Current Date object in all universes?
- Is there a way to get a count of all items on each permanent shelving location that includes temporary items and cataloged ones that can be filtered by item status? When I run a report using the Circulation Status universe to get item counts, they don't seem to match what we see when we search WMS in Circulation->Discover Items by Local Holdings/Branch/Shelving Location.
