Paul,

Apologies if the answer is available, I just can't find it.

You can set the default in the framework. Click "display more constraints."

Just a reminder: item type has absolutely thing to do with the physical
characteristics of the item it is describing. If I wanted to give my
non-circulating reference materials the item type DUCK, that wouldn't make
any less sense than calling them REF (think about it... when you go to a
nature preserve, you're not allowed to bring the ducks home, no matter how
much you like them). Item type is a category for the circulation rules.

Regards,
Jared
