Retention Notes (SCELC, WEST)

Any clever ideas or thoughts?

• Standard format descriptions (for collections/titles/attributions)?
  
• Ideas that might reduce 'hits' in other CSU Primo searches?
  
  
  From February:
  A task force ("stand-up meeting") discussed the issue, Brandon opened a Salesforce case, and ExL has issued their famous response:
  "Yes, this works as expected."
  Control of fields displayed is possible and easier than control of fields indexed, when the desire is to control a Local Field to searches made only in the Library's own Instance. Controlling index of Local Fields using Library ID codes in $$5 (e.g., 01CALS_ULA or CLA), is not possible, currently.
  The CSU is welcome to make an Enhancement Request.
  Before February:
  Libraries have coded retention notes in fields that:
  
• Display in Library's own Primo Instance
  
• But are indexed in Central CSU Primo indexes
  
  Are there fields that index/display only in the Local Instance?
  Currently, there are notes for:
  
• SCELC retention decisions
  
• WEST retention decisions
  
  Can you think of any other collection decisions that have or might be encoded in bibliographic fields?
  
• Can/Would Ex Libris TURN OFF Indexing 590s at the NZ Level? No
  
• Can/Would Ex Libris encode setting Primo Display using $$5 NUC Symbol? No
  
• Which fields in the 5xx series are indexed Locally AND in the NZ/Primo?
  
  Which fields are indexed Local Instance and Displayed in the Local Instance?
  
• Analyzed Titles
  
• Notes about the condition/handling of the work (e.g., "autographed")
  
• Honor with Books (honoring donors, employees)
  
• Accompanying materials in particular location
  
• Historic "second location" notes
  
• Piece notes. Local Notes that reflect the item in hand.(note can go in Public Note in Item Record)
  
• Notes about alternate formats ("microform")
  Copies in other areas of the University.
