Description hebah 2026-01-09 19:23:10 UTC
The complete disconnect between the quick spine label link enabled by SpineLabelShowPrintOnBibDetails and the cataloging module label creator is confusing to many librarians. The option to quickly print a one-off label in the established template/layout is handy, and it can be done from the Edit item form via the Actions menu, but that's already two clicks in. 

It would be nice if the SpineLabelShowPrintOnBibDetails, instead of just being an on-off toggle, could have an additional option to be 'Show button and use label creator tool.' That would tie together the two functions for libraries who want to do so without introducing a new system preference, and the libraries who want to continue to use the on-the-fly formatting of the tool as it exists could continue to do so.
