On the list of Z39.50 servers at /admin/z3950servers.pl there is no way to tell whether a server is correctly configured or not. It would be helpful to display this information. - On the list of servers add a column to indicate the status (such as Active, Inactive, In Testing, Not working, etc.) of a Z39.50 server - On the diplay for a specific server, add a field to include the status information - Allow libraries to select their own wording for the statuses - Allow libraries to block the display of Z39.50 servers with certain statuses from showing up when using a Z39.50 search with the Advanced Cataloging Editor, the basic editor, creating a new record via Z39.50 or creating a new order via Z39.50
Maybe an authorised value for the status and a checkbox to determine if it shows up?
That sounds like a great approach.
