Hide bibliographic records

[Michael Leung (SIL)]

Dear all,

Is it possible to set a bibliographic record(s) that only show to the user who has login to the OPAC. That means this bibliographic record would not be shown in OPAC for general user or guest who is not the patron of the library.

Thanks.

I don't know any mechanism for this.

Michael-

We have some patrons we need to see "hidden" items. We are giving them log
on permissions for the staff module, but only to view the catalog,borrow,
and reserve.

As I understand it, OpacSupression does this for the whole catalogue,
but it isn't yet possible for individual records.  I am interested in
adding such a feature, as well as restricting records to particular
patron categories.  Would many people be interested in this?

Thanks,

To clarify, turning on the OpacSupression syspref enables the
capability to suppress OPAC display of individual records.  To
actually suppress a particular bib record, it's still necessary to set
the 942$n subfield to 1 (if you're using the MARC21 frameworks).

Enhancing the OPAC suppression feature so that you can specify that
certain records are to be visible only if the user is logged on to the
OPAC belongs to particular patron category would be useful
developments.

Regards,

Galen

I, too, think it would be nice to be able to suppress at the item
level, too. We have duplicate records in our catalog only because one
site needs to suppress and the other doesn't.

It would be nice to combine them on to one bib record, with some
suppressed in the OPAC and one not.

OS-- Oh, yeah, and it would REALLY be great if there was a flag in
the staff module to alert staff that a certain record is suppressed!
That would save staff telling patrons, "It's right there in the
catalog, I'm looking at the record right here." (While they are using
the staff module!)

Yes, I really wish this feature will come true some day. Bib record only visible by valid user is very important setting to our library services over the web. I don't want people in the public request things that is only for a legitimate users.
