Description Alexandre 2019-05-29 21:41:54 UTC
Hi,

When we do a search on Zebra/Z39.50 server, it would be useful to have some options or filters to apply on the search like item type because there is sometime a lot of results that are not wanted.

Thanks

Alexandre

I will add to the request that the filter on the type of document should be done on the zone Marc21 008 (type of material).

Regards
Marjorie

Rephrasing the bug title slightly.

Wondering how complicated that would be - material type in MARC can be defined by LDR/007/008, but I guess also by 336-338 for RDA records? 

This would have to be translated to a bib1 attribute that is generally supported by Z-Servers. 

Maybe we could display a calculated material type in the search results that we can filter on in Koha on the fly? That might make this easier/more flexible.
