Custom cover images should show up in Leap
We use ChiliFresh as a source for cover images and we also use their service to upload custom images for missing covers, kits, etc. After the MARC record is updated with the custom image tag, the new image shows up in the PowerPAC immediately. However, it never shows up in Leap. Leap is already pulling images from ChiliFresh (as well as other sources) for the cover images in Leap's item and bib records. It's really weird that it doesn't pull from the same source to get the custom image attached to the record.

As an aside, and this is probably a known thing, I discovered that custom cover images *are* supported in Leap... kind of.
When you upload an image to ChiliFresh, you're asked to classify the image as an ISBN, UPC, OCLC, LCCN, LC, or Custom. With the non-Custom types, you can provide the number to go with the others.
So long as the images uploaded to ChiliFresh reference a UPC or ISBN, they work in Leap. I've not tried classifying anything as an OCLC, LCCN, or LC. But I can confirm that if you provide a UPC or ISBN number and then place those in the MARC record in the correct tags, Leap *will* display the custom image.
