Kyle, Sorry for jumping in late here. For what it is worth, I am one of the advocates for not having the "All Libraries" be the default in most places. With that said, there are a couple ways I would approach a resolution with something of this nature. First, I would put another dreaded preference to control this behavior. As some multi-branch or single library systems may prefer only dealing with the "All Libraries" settings, and other do not, it would be great to have the ability to switch this behavior. Second, I would make the "All Libraries" settings stand out from the individual libraries. For example, if "All Libraries" is selected in the notices, perhaps the font or the dropdown box changes color to red or yellow on the main and editing pages. It should be more obvious than a couple of words on the page. Hope this helps.

Examples of this are the circulation rules, slips and notices, overdue status triggers, etc. Some librarians would like the default view to be the library's rules, rather than the "all libraries" rules. The idea being that this would stop librarians from editing the "all libraries" rules by accident. The two bugs in question are: Bug 11625 - Default to logged in library for circ rules and notices & slips http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11625 Bug 11747 - Default to logged in library for Overdue notice/status triggers http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11747 Please let us know how you feel about this!
