SlimPAC: Under uncommon circumstances, searches could ignore the requested search type (such as title or author) and always use keyword. Now subject, author, title, and keyword searches behave properly.

Closed Dates Editor (Staff Client, Local Admin): Dates did not always display, or displayed incorrectly.

Hold Shelf display (Staff Client, Circulation): If only one hold was on the hold shelf, it would not display.

Force This Action override (Staff Client, Circulation): Previously, multiple events tied to one item could not be overridden in one step.

Offline/Standalone Client: Transaction list would not clear unless the transactions were printed.

Hold Targeter: Enhancement to the holds targeter to make it more efficient and reduce load.

Spine Labels (Staff Client, Cataloging): The top margin of the first label was misaligned by a small amount.

Billing interface (Staff Client, Circulation): Billing retrieval now much faster due to new API (programming).

Patron Search (Staff Client): Improved autofocus, which controls how and where the cursor defaults for data entry.

Z39.50 Client (Staff Client): PQN search feature restored. PQN (for Prefix Query Notation) is a powerful search tool used by some catalogers for direct querying of Z39.50 servers. To see it in action, try @mosher beer (the equivalent of the keyword search, mosher and beer) or try this more complex search: @or papazian @attr 1=21 beer (a search for papazian or beer except that the first term can be anywhere, while the second term must be in the subject field). Note: found under label, “Raw Text.”

Located URIs – adding an 856$9 containing the short name of a location will restrict search and display of entirely electronic records (those with no physical copies) to the location named. In other words, the ability to restrict record visibility to a specific location or set of locations in the same way as copies but without creating dummies. Since there is no physical location, however, this does affect advanced searches wherein the shelving location limiter is used.

Dojo profile build specific to Evergreen, increasing load speed dramatically for the OPAC and Staff Clients.

BibTemplate OPAC templating – Any field from any version of a record that Evergreen can deliver, with or without embedded holdings, is now available for display using a simple template language which is further extended with basic JavaScript. Template customization is now supported that allows specific data fields to be pulled from the MARC and displayed in the OPAC.
