see: http://screencast.com/t/OWE5NzMxZWMt Subtitles are not showing on the Holds Queue list, making it very time consuming for librarians to pick items that are in a series. The holds queue used to show the barcode of the item to be picked, making it eas(ier) for the librarian to find the right item to fill a hold. Without the subtitles AND without the barcode, they have to click through to each subtitled item to figure out which item to pull. I propose adding the subtitles into the holds queue list, and considering adding the specific item barcode back in as well (though there may be a reason not to do that).
The specific barcode is there, if a specific item was requested. Any available title does let the person know, any copy on the shelf will suffice. But adding in the subtitle, $b and $p and $n at least for libraries using MARC21 is certainly doable.
Using the Keyword to MARC mappings /cgi-bin/koha/admin/fieldmapping.pl We can define mappings for those subfields, then we can use those mappings to make a multi marc compliant solution. Using GetRecordValue from C4::Biblio

> Any available title does let the person know, any copy on the shelf will > suffice. The trouble with this is when your library has more than one copy of the same title, but because they have different ISBNs they were cataloged under separate records. Pulling one of the two [different] copies of that title has only a 50% chance of fulfilling the hold in your report. We use a custom PHP script which pulls from Koha's holdsqueue table and does a "limit 1" query for barcode for each item in the holds list. It has worked well for us. I don't know whether a similar method would work well as a built-in report.
I see there was a followup patch; is the version attached to this bug report the correct one?
I'm assuming the modifications to addbiblio.tmpl in this patch are unrelated?
I can confirm that with chris's patch, subtitles are now showing in the View Holdsqueue. There is still the matter of the barcodes that owen brings up, but this patch definitely helps the bigger issue with our libraries, which is picking items with entries in the 245 $p, $n, $b, and $h. http://screencast.com/t/ZGZjMTdjND
For purposes of comparison: this is the holds queue list that we are currently using. It was customized by me to only show what we wanted. http://screencast.com/t/ZmE5NDcyY Additionally, putting patron information on the holds queue, while helpful, requires librarians to shred the list when they are done. We omitted it for that reason, as the information is printed on the slip when the item is checked in.
Created attachment 2551 [details] [review] followup-putting the subtitles in the URL for title
Created attachment 2552 [details] [review] followup putting the subtitles in the title links This should be the correct package, minus the bit about boraccount. Also added the barcodes to the barcode column, with notes about which are item level and which are title level. This should be the correct-est patch of any I've sent.
Looks like the fix requires both attachment 2533 [details] [review] and attachment 2552 [details] [review]. After testing with both of those I can confirm the holds queue list shows subtitles. However, attachment 2533 [details] [review] includes some changes to addbiblio.tmpl which don't belong. Liz, can you send a single revised patch?
