Can someone tell me how they're using Library Groups in their library? Or how they are supposed to be used? I'm not sure I understand the purpose. Thanks Nicole

Yes I can, imagine a university with, say, 40 libraries. 5 for science, 10 for language learning, 6 for chemistry, ... the groups can be used to let users search for something in all libraries related to their training category. does this help ? -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08

That explains the search domain groups - what about the properties groups? Also - I think David Schuster said he was having trouble with search groups. I'll see if I can find a bug report about that.
Does this imply that Library Groups (as in Libraries and groups in Administration) actually work now? Is this in version 3.2? In earlier versions you could group libraries/branches together but there was no functionality. We want groups to work so that a public library could group all its branches, a school system could group its schools or even all libraries in a county could be in a group and share functionality like holds, access to patron records, etc. I have a whole statement of work about this if there is still someone who hasn't seen it and would like to.
