I think there are two different issues here:
1) Display of the fields
2) Indexing them

1) My experience is that 590 fields info is shown in "Descriptions"
tab in the OPAC. Other fields$subfields can be added through XSLT to
the view too.
2) If you want to be able to search those fields, yo have to add
indexes to zebra. For example add:
to zebradb/biblios/etc/bib1.att
att 8032    LocalNote
and to zebradb/marc_defs/marc21/biblios/record.abs
melm 590$a      LocalNote

to add an index for 590$a
