Screenshot of the authority search popup
Are you talking about the pop-up window triggered from the basic MARC editor? If so I don't see the page number highlighting problem you describe.

Authority pop up with no highlighted pages past 15
Yes, the pop up window is limited when it comes to an authority search with a lot of results. When we do Women Fiction for example, once you get to page 15, there are still over 1,000 results and once you hit Next, you can no longer see the page highlighted that you're on or navigate to page (see attachment above); you have to keep clicking Next. One solution suggested was limited by switching from the default "contains" to "starts with" or "is exactly" which does lessen the results, but our cataloging team has reported that this has been time consuming and inefficient compared to the authority workflow in our previous ILS. I think of the two issues here -- pages highlighted versus the ability to sort -- the latter would be the preference. If they could sort based on number of matches, that would reduce many of the issues they're having here. (In reply to lhilleary from comment #3) > once you get to page 15...and once you hit Next, you can no > longer see the page highlighted Ah, that's the missing information. I do see that. |
