Consider relocating the First Available Date information from the Source & Donor tab to the Statistics tab within the Item Record. When weeding materials, many libraries review the First Available Date alongside circulation statistics to evaluate item usage and age. Placing this field within the Statistics tab would streamline the workflow and reduce the need to navigate between tabs during the weeding process.
