Thanks, I had thought of that but I would not be able to control other policies like float vs. non-floating ...etc. Most of our collections float. On Thu, Jun 7, 2018 at 11:48 AM, George <gwilliams@nekls.org> wrote:
Chad,
Why not collection code? I think you can use CCODE values in opachiddenitems.

Just curious as to how other libraries set up staff only collections. I suspect that I am overthinking this. We'd like to create a collection for librarian-led programs, Eg., movie night, program kits ...etc.
Such that:
- Hidden in OPAC via OPACHiddenItems - Easily searchable by staff - Non-floating - No reserves or checkouts allowed except to staff
I see 2 - 3 possibilities:
- Item Type - Location or branch "Staff Collection" - Some combination of the 2 (?)
I'm not a fan of using item type as it complicates the role and meaning ( taxonomic ) of item type for material classification so I'm leaning towards creating a branch and assigning rules to this branch. Shelving location does not offer the same flexibility, correct? I don't see a way to set rules by shelving location. That would be ideal as this collection is housed at an existing branch.
Thank you!
