We've been experimenting with this in our de-coupled
OPAC.
Patrons can limit searches to "available in branch X."
This can be done from our advanced search only.
However, "available" means at 7 am in the morning
when the data was dumped into our mySQL db from the
ILS.
We've only been doing this for a while now, and will
look into how often this feature is actually used.
We're looking at making circ status live, but this
will depend on how quickly our middleware
(Connx) can handle things. We're expecting an upgrade
with greater speed shortly.
