The 856 can continue to be a bibliographic-level field, when that is appropriate for the title. The 856 fields should display at the local site and be contributed to and display at the Inn-Reach site. Links should be live to the relevant web site from both the local catalog and the Inn-Reach catalog. Restrictions on access could be more clearly displayed at the Inn-Reach site if URLs existed in attached records that are tied to the owning library. This enhancement would also be useful for stand-alone Innopac sites with multiple branches, where restrictions on access exist for some campuses.
Shared catalogs are much bigger than a local catalog and the retrieval limit is reached more often.
In VT100 Subject and Title searches, the system stops after 5000, but the user can request the system to continue and retrieve all. The resulting groups make browsing that many records possible. In the Inn-Reach WebPAC, Subject and Title searches stop at 5000, and the searcher never knows what has been eliminated. At the central OPAC, this display masks all other location information and the display of all other attached records. The enhancement needed is to append the summary holdings statement from the owning library's checkin record.
